The Nostr Commandeering the internet, I like it.

bringing conversation to the www

Great! I’m just wondering how this can go from a consumer social product to a business purpose. Cord.com did something similar but they pivoted since then.

That’s interesting and I’m keen to hear more.

Imagine an internal knowledge base with a full commenting system like this. People can comment on documentation, etc.

I think it's amusing how people want to fix existing spyware by installing more potential spyware on top of it.

😂

Here’s the code

Not sure how the former can be fixed.

What do you suggest Luxy?

I said potential spyware. Now it looks safe, then an update comes. I'm more referring to the current extension model as insecure in general. Like, why cannot we allow extensions to only access the tabs with select websites open? We can only choose whether or not to allow them to run in "private windows", but when we do, they have unlimited access to all open tabs.

This lack of fine-grained control is begging to be abused, and it's only a matter of time someone does so.

What do I suggest? I suggest to let browsers browse and not run arbitary code, I suggest to return their codebase to some humanly-auditable size and to offload all client-side complexity to standalone applications. Preferably command-line, maybe with some HTTP interface accessible on a local port if noobs are so inclined not to use CLI.

Current 2.5-engine "modern web" oligopoly must die.

Just use Lynx browser.

On one of my Alpine installations, I use Links with -g switch on a bare framebuffer. After changing the font settings, it's quite pleasant to use.

Lynx is uglier in many aspects.
