Sent an email to the library coordinator about running a workshop.
Gonna focus on teaching folks how to use Devtools to mess with websites and create bookmarklets to persist changes.
I wish web browsers had kept built in user scripts as a feature so that everyone could edit their experiences more easily.
@tnypxl Yeah I was actually considering doing a workshop using my own browser, @agregore, which would also bring a way to create and share content offline and on local networks.
I decided to go with standard browsers because I wanted to support people without access to fancy computers like kids that only have the chromebooks their schools provide them.
Apple-only projects in particular are kinda uninteresting to me since it excludes a lot of people.
Arc is defs cool though!
@mauve They have plans for a windows version, but it’s a long ways away. But I agree, definitely better to stick with the mainstream browsers!
@tnypxl One thing too with the dev tools approach is I could get folks with shitty Android tablets to be able to install https://kiwibrowser.com/ and use their devtools if they don't have access to a "real" computer. :o
@mauve It’s stuff like this that keep me paying attention to Android.
@tnypxl Yeah! I'm excited for the EU to bust Apple's browswr engine monopoly too so we can have projects like this existing in that space too :)
@mauve Arc has a pretty sleek UI for user styles and scripts https://resources.arc.net/en/articles/6808613-boosts-customize-any-website
Oh yeah! Any folks in #Ottawa / #Nepean interested in this stuff hit me up! I'm hoping to run it at the Centrepointe branch.
Also thinking of including signup links for some local #Fediverse instances to build up community.
