| Web is full of shitty JavaScript which are full of 3rd party craps |
| that will make your PC turn into a room heater |
|

| yeah if the web were created without JavaScript, it would be much |
| more like Gopher space. No surveillance, no Ads, just plain ol |
| documents |

| I like the ability to individually customize the look and feel of |
| your website and have embeddable media, so I still prefer the Web if |
| you avoid JS. It would be pretty boring if everything looked plain. |

| #1341 That's how it was in 1995 (when I got online with 14.4K dialup |
| into a SunOS shell). There were at least as many FTP and gopher sites |
| as WWW. Probably spend most of my time in ncftp, ircII, and pine. |

| I don't get, it, though. I mean, couldn't we have a web protocol |
| that pretty much is just web 1.0 ? HTML and CSS and nothing else? |
|

| ah yes back when it wasnt webshit but for fun and getting compromised |
|

| Yep, agree! |

| It already exists. It's called HTTP 1.0. Just make your own |
| website like I did that meets those criteria and we should all |
| network. https://leftychad.net/ |

| #1378 you are a joke. go educate yourself on how protocols work. no |
| one forces you to use newer versions of http - use http1.0 if you |
| wish. also gemini is a thing |

| #1341, someone here is old enough to remember big flashy ads in |
| <marquee> tags and 1x1 third-party GIFs inserted on the pages purely |
| for surveillance, both topics never had anything to do with JS, |
| there was little to no JS back then. |
|
|
| __[2023-04-22(Sat)15:16:52 #1685]_____________________________________ |
| #1669 Surveillance is much much easier with js, as fingerprinting |
| is very hard to avoid |
|

| #1669 marquee tag is kino if not abused by ads (every other form |
| of abuse is fine) |
|
|
| __[2023-04-25(Tue)13:38:00 #1697]_____________________________________ |
| It's true about marquee. They look awesome when they're not abused. |
|
|
| __[2023-04-27(Thu)14:35:00 #1702]_____________________________________ |
| I just wish more forum software would allow it |
|

| Anybody interesting in patching lynx to allow the marquee tag? |
|
|
| __[2023-05-03(Wed)01:21:31 #1707]_____________________________________ |
| Marquee is a non-standard tag introduced in IE. It did look radical, |
| however. Not that I miss it |

| It's the think that's missing to make gopher and the terminal cool |
| again. If we have it, we'll be able to relive the good old days by |
| hitting just the right amount of popularity |

| Gopher is what it is because it's simple. You don't need scrolling |
| text to display information. Having a standard way of encryption |
| would be an improvement if you don't want to use it over i2p. |
