Not many things require a polyfill these days. My guess is a lot of older sites are affected.

Look at the frameworks go!!! I know I know. “its not a framework”…

These were great in their day, but it’s time to move on to something better and safer.

How is it “safer” when contributing to the codebase or filing and discussing issues will now require creating an account and giving up personal information to one of the most privacy-invasive tech companies in the world? 😳

Oh neat! I didn’t know this existed. By any chance, do you know of any RSS readers that have implemented it?

Is there one for the other sites like bbc.com?

Yes! Can’t believe it’s 2024 and websites are still not accessible. Even the biggest companies are the worst at this… and don’t even get me started on their mobile sites 🙄

WOM has and will always be the best form of marketing and you dont need big marketing teams to do it.

The problem is that a company doesnt need that many people to push a product. They can just pay the few they need, well. But instead, they’d just rather hire a shit ton of people and under pay all of them.

This reply reads like we should have to pay for these big unnecessary marketing teams these companies hire, which shouldn’t be the case.

Yeah, depending on the branch I’ve found that method not to be too reliable. openrss offers branches for RSS feeds for commits on every branch though: e.g. https://openrss.org/github.com/octokit/octokit.rb/commits/main

Sure but new versions are released pretty often, which essentially means they can change their license whenever they want.

Interesting idea. A couple questions:

How would it work if the open source maintainer is a commercial company?

AFAIK there are no restrictions on when an Open source maintainer can change their license. They can do it even after their work has already been used.

So couldn’t a company like, Facebook (since they own open source React) just change their React license to this one and all of sudden start charging everyone for it? 🤔

Yeah, it’s definitely a very unique approach I haven’t seen before. I’ve been using the “honeypot” method for years, which has been working surprisingly well.

Wouldn’t this effectively mark all messages from a user who isn’t using JavaScript as spam? 🙃

Yeah, because anything that isn’t a big new JavaScript framework is just way too complicated

Nice! I was looking for something like this the other day. Also great that it’s available on Flathub.

Who are these people downvoting these posts? 😆

Yeah git reset --soft then the sha of the last commit you want included in reset.

Nice! Looks like it’s built with Hugo! Never heard of that framework before but looks like it saves a lot of dev time. 👍

Hey glad to see this! I’d love to work on the codebase but I dont use Discord and unfortunately wont be using it just for this effort. But still… Kudos to everyone who is able to help out!

You can keep bringing it up. But, in my exp, if you dont have anyone high up that can support your perspective, it’s just gonna be an uphill battle. And is likely just going to make the other devs unhappy with you.

It’s unfortunate but most devs dont really like anything that’s going to cause them more work (e.g. more code reviews, higher quality changes, looking at the bigger impact of their changes etc).

If you don’t have someone higher up —maybe the manager of the managers of those problematic engineers—I’d just make more tests around the areas that are breaking and require those tests to pass before merging code changes. Devs may not like to work harder, but they damn sure dont like seeing a bunch of red X’s when they open a PR lol 😃
