Whoever is in charge of Google's UX standards should feel ashamed of themselves for how they constantly spit in the face of user choice ans consent. Truly a disgusting soul to perpetuate this shit.
I wanna see the "infrequently asked questions" that have high impact.
@lutindiscret @adele It's been here for a few years actually! I just don't think any other clients support the p2p :P
@alex Oh cool! Is your patch published somewhere I may read?
I have no chill but I must sleep. 💀
Attempt number 1 of auto-converting my markdown based website to #gemini
Currently only available via HTTPs and various #p2p protocols but eventually I'll add a proper gemini server to my main distributed press instance for it. 🤪 Might end up coding one since it's easier than searching through all the options for something that will fit my needs.

@metasyn @makeworld I think the main thing is deciding which parts of markdown you will throw out and how you'll "gracefully" downgrade. e.g. flattening nested lists.
This is what I came up with for anyone curious.
@makeworld Yeah, I've had decent luck with Marked for MD-to-HTML and some basic extraction.
@spanin Cool! Looks like it does gemtext already. I don't think it'd make sense to include it in my node.js project directly but I can at least use their tests as inspo, ty!
@makeworld Fair! I was just about to make an equivalent in JS so gonna have a gander at your tests for inspo 😸 I think I'm gonna say "Anything but this subset of markdown is unsupported" since it's mostly for personal use.
@makeworld Is this md2gemini lib archived cause you don't want to update it or was it not working like you'd hoped? :o
Thinking of crossposting my blog to gemini.

New release! This time we have some small quality of life improvements like enabling #gemini sites to prompt for user input which enables stuff like search engines!

Did you know:
You can find us on Bluesky via [@agregore.mauve.moe](https://bsky.app/profile/agregore.mauve.moe)
or on the fediverse via [@agregore](https://mastodon.mauve.moe/@agregore)
It'd be nice if GitHub had a non-JS web interface with just static rendering and minimal CSS.
For real I think my ratio of "need to read source" to "docs tell me what I needed" is like 10 to 1.
Then again a lot of the stuff I need to do / work with is pretty obscure.

mom said it's my turn on the mutex
@nopatience I think "small bespoke apps" is where the biggest impact is. Shitty lil apps that people make mostly for themselves that they just couldn't have otherwise because they can't justify paying a programmer to make them.

Anyone here has a cross-platform GUI toolkit they love?
I'm kinda sad that there is nothing really easy out there. I remember how easy it was to just launch LiveCode (aka Runtime Revolution) create a stack and just create standalones for macOS, Windows, and Linux.
I just want to cook up some tiny GUI tools here and it seems like Tk still the easiest option.
Maybe the *real* documentation is the code we wrote along the way 🥰
The hard part of this is going to be figuring out how the heck Chromiums google build tools handle extracting assets from AARs and adding them to the build config 😱
