  • I use HTML5, css3 and vanilla js… haven’t seen a web dev project in years that actually needed to be an application. for the odd moment where I need interactive controls htmx comes to the rescue. I’ve built a few actual web applications using both react and angular before and can tell you nothing is more amazing than not having to deal with npm anymore. don’t get me started on downloading all backend state into browser cache just to change the color of a button ;-)










  • I’m using fedora as my work system, because I have a relatively new laptop that needs the new kernels. Haven’t experienced anything you’re describing. Are you on fedora regular or on sliverblue (the immutable version)? If you’re having issues running the newest kernel, follow the fedora documented way to build and run your own. I did just that when needed a prerelease kernel and it worked out fine. I usually upgrade to a new release by the end of the cycle, so that the new version had 6 months to mature. I never immediately upgrade.







  • They have been making a profit on YT for years already. This isn’t to cover the server cost, its to increase the bottom line after all competition was crushed by them. Also, I remember a time with unobtrusive ads that were fine and not an issue, unfortunately for the past 2 years or so they’re pushing more and more ads lately doubling up on them as well. Clearly people - just like me - start fighting back and stop them from abusing with massive amounts of unwanted content.
