Let's bring back the webring.
Let's bring back the webring.
Back in the day the best way to find cool sites when you were on a cool site was to click next in the webring. In this age of ailing search engines and confidently incorrect AI, it is time for the webring to make a comeback.
This person has given his the code to get started: Webring

I love this idea, the back button on browsers feels like it exists because of webrings
It exists because web browsers used to not have tabs. Nowadays it's useless cause with modern scripted web pages you never properly get back to the site you left
then you're visiting websites that are badly coded
like lemmy, for example.
the back button works fine for me here
Just block JavaScript
Then the entire browser becomes useless. I couldn't even post this comment without JavaScript.
Edit: I wish a search engine that only showed websites without JavaScript existed.
Umatrix is great, you can configure it to automatically allow first party javascript, and if sites still dont work eneable bits until they do them lock those settings so the same bits will be enabled next time you're on that site.
You can do that with NoScript too. Is the Umatrix UI any better, or are there other benefits?
noscript is like a screwdriver. umatrix is the whole toolbox.
both have their place
I wish also that THAT search engine also made it so turning on results that have paywalls is a thing you can only have turned on if YOU turn it on
Duckduckgo has a no javascript mode.
Not useless. I don't use JS. Yeah. Maybe 1/10 websites you have to skip.
How do you even post here without JavaScript?
I use an app, but Im sure one of the front ends doesn't require JS
