- <p>
- I am writing this to go over both the good things and bad things I often
- come across on small websites, the kind often made by just some random
- person in a basement. The funny part about it is all the bad things I will
- go over are not limited to indie websites but are instead echos of the
- mainstream web that have sadly been leaking into everything else. A lot of
- what I have to say are things discovered through umatrix. Often times we
- only see the outside of a website but when using a good content blocker
- like umatrix, noscript, ublock advanced mode... the inner workings of a
- website is brought into the light. What I often find isnt pretty. Sometimes
- a website is themed to look old school but under the hood its just a bunch
- of modern javascript bullshit and a hell ton of frames. Other times more
- modern looking websites have little to no javascript and instead use
- tastefull first party css to get that look.
- </p>
-
- <h4>Please dont hot link</h4>
- <p>
- From what I have seen neocities users love to abusive hot linking all the way
- to the deepest depths of hell. Every single button, blinky, gif, meme... on
- their frontpage is hot linked. Its perfectly ok to make your viewers suffer
- with too much of that shit. I do the same. But <b>please download all the
- images and gifs into your image folder instead of hot linking
- them</b>. Here is why:
- </p>
- <ul>
- <li>Hot linking puts strain on the sites you link to.</li>
- <li>Hot linking makes your site handle link rot poorly.</li>
- <li>Hot linking annoys the fuck out of people using any type of addon or
- browser feature that disables third party images. We do it to stop tracking
- pixels and things of that nature.</li>
- </ul>
-
- <h4>Please limit your use of javascript</h4>
- <p>
- <b>Its best to not use javascript at all.</b> Though if you are addicted to
- the drug javascript and cant help yourself at least try to limit your use
- of it. That means <b>all static content needs to be accessible without
- javascript</b>. No using javascript for fancy drop downs, no using
- javascript to handle your layout, no using javascript just to get text and
- images into the screen, no using javascript for basic animations...

+ I am writing this to go over all the shit web devs do. Fuck them. A lot of

+ <h3>Please dont hot link</h3>
+ <p>
+ From what I have seen neocities users love to abusive hot linking all the way
+ to the deepest depths of hell. Every single button, blinky, gif, meme... on
+ their frontpage is hot linked. Its perfectly ok to make your viewers suffer
+ with too much of that shit. I do the same. But <b>please download all the

+ <li>Hot linking annoys the fuck out of people using any type of addon or
+ browser feature that disables third party images. We do it to stop tracking
+ pixels and things of that nature.</li>
+ </ul>
+ <p>
+ Indeed this doesnt only apply to images and gifs though images and gifs are
+ the thing hot linking is most abusived for. Another one I should point out
+ is the google font api bullshit. Dont use that shit.
+ </p>
+
+ <h3>Please limit your use of javascript</h3>
+ <p>
+ <b>Its best is to not use javascript at all.</b> Though if you are addicted
+ to
+ the drug javascript and cant help yourself at least try to limit your use
+ of it. That means <b>all static content needs to be accessible without
+ javascript</b>. No using javascript for fancy drop downs, no using
+ javascript to handle your layout, no using javascript just to get text and
+ images onto the screen, no using javascript for basic animations... this is
+ what html and css is for mother fuckers! Javascript is easily one of the
+ worst things humans ever created. Javascript programmers kept asking what
+ they can use javascript for but never stopped to think should they use
+ javascript. To top things off every new javscript feature they add comes
+ with a hell ton of fingerprinting baked deep into it. Most of the things
+ you fuckers use javascript for can be replaced with either css or
+ backend. Try out a public access unix system, a vps... if you wanta try
+ making dynamic websites without the evils of javascript. For making your
+ website feel fancy css got you covered. Check out <a
+ href="https://csszengarden.com" target="_blank">css zen garden</a>. See how
+ it looks fancy without javascript? css is way more powerful than many of
+ you realize. No need to program your website like its a desktop app. The
+ best part of css is you can both use modern features and not fuck over
+ people using older browsers!
+ </p>
+
+ <h3>Fuck frames</h3>
+ <p>
+ Frames are stupid dont use them. Just link youtube videos instead of frame
+ them for fucks shake.
+ </p>
+
+ <h3>Graceful degrading</h3>
+ <p>
+ Please check out <a href="https://anybrowser.org/campaign/"
+ target="_blank">any browser</a>. You arent going to test your site on every
+ single browser and make it look the same on every single one. Instead make
+ your site degrade nicely. If css, images, html features... break the
+ important stuff will still work. If you own a website pull it up with
+ umatrix installed and start blocking things. Does it still work?
+ <b>Websites should contain content not layout.</b> You dont need to use
+ tables for layout or outdated css to make your website support old
+ browsers. Instead you just gotta make sure things can break without
+ rendering your website un-usable.
+ </p>
+
+ <h3>Not important but...</h3>
+ <p>
+ I found using width on images to scale them down doesnt work in some old
+ browsers like dillo. To fix this I just scale all my images to whatever
+ size I need in gimp first. A added plus is not having to load a massive
+ image just for a tiny icon (like someone with as many images as my site
+ would ever care lol) and you can decide how you want your images scaled to.
+ </p>
+
+ <h3>Shut your piehole</h3>
+ <p>
+ I can already smell the angry sweaty tears of modern web devs. Screaming
+ about how everyone should just install chrome to get all the latest
+ <s>features</s> bloat and spyware instead of telling web devs to slow down
+ <s>progress</s> clownery just to support old browsers. Here is what I have
+ to say about that...
+ </p>
+ <ol>
+ <li>I already said you can use modern css.</li>
+ <li><b>Websites are nearly network accessible documents.</b> They shouldnt
+ replace desktop apps, run as a program on your computer... At most a
+ website should act as a interface to make requests to a server. That can be
+ done quite easily without javascript.</li>
+ <li>Desktop and server OS's is where the progress happens. Thats where
+ powerful software is programmed and in real languages to.</li>
+ </ol>
+ <p>
+ Javascript programmers are now making desktop apps in javascript and
+ writing their backends in javascript you say?! Humanity is fucked.
