The @w3c Compute Pressure #API specification defines a set of pressure states (e.g. high CPU load) delivered to a #WebApp to signal when adaptation of the workload is appropriate to ensure consistent quality of service. #timetoimplement
▶️ w3.org/TR/compute-pressure/

The document defines 3 concepts: processing units (such as the CPU), supported sources (such as #GPU), sampling and reporting rates.

Key usage scenarios are described in this explainer: github.com/w3c/compute-pressur

www.w3.orgCompute Pressure Level 1The Compute Pressure API provides a way for websites to react to changes in the CPU pressure of the target device, such that websites can trade off resources for an improved user experience.

Some people miss the event functionality of Facebook. I’ve found that Partey.io is a great, free alternative that’s very easy to use. It doesn’t require an account, looks great—and it even has confetti.

Alternatively, there's also an open-source, decentralized event tool that looks great. It may be a bit trickier to set up for the average user but definitely worth checking out, I’d say: mobilizon.org

Looking for CMS advice

Hey Web devs!

Do you have any suggestions, tips, opinions, dos, don’ts about headless CMSes?

I have a growing list of small/mid non-profits and collectives asking for my help to (re)make their website. I totally want to help, but I don’t have much time, especially considering that they generally have little or no funding—I would most definitely point them to @VillageOneCoop, otherwise.

Therefore, I want a super simple and replicable solution where I can copy-paste most of the code, while providing them with a stable, fast, and modern solution. I had a look at the Headless CMS section in the Jamstack website, but I need opinions from people who actually used some of that software already.

Needs

  • I want to code and configure everything using @eleventy
  • Admin interface (#WebApp) for the client to add pages and write posts
  • Static website in the front-end
  • Simple and reliable CI/CD
  • No/minimal maintenance after the first setup
  • Self-hostable (I was taking this for granted so much that I forgot to write it)
  • If it requires forge integration, it should support #ForgeJo
  • #OpenSource

Nice to have

  • Possibly using #Deno, not #NodeJS
  • Allowing the client to customize a bit their website through the admin interface, with a GUI
  • CMS app packaged on @yunohost
  • No CMS vendor lock-in
  • I’d love to write as little JavaScript as possible
  • #FreeSoftware

Absolutely not

Please, boost this and ask around! Links to videos, tutorials, and resources are welcome.

People whose perspective I would really value: @zachleat @harryfk @deno_land @jaredwhite @vanillaweb @stefan @mxbck @WeirdWriter @deadsuperhero (Sorry if I am spamming you!)

@seaotta : I just wrote infosec.exchange/@ErikvanStrat *three* times in Firefox for Android.

Switching to another browser or converting images causes Alzheimers in Firefox: my text and images (plus Alt text) are GONE.

I know that I should close more browser tabs, but loosing text I just entered is simply unacceptible. I'm now considering to switch to a dedicated Mastodon app, loathing the idea of having to read about and select a reasonable (privacy and security) Mastodon app.

AARRGGHH

(tap Alt in the image for more info)

I am once again faced with the bleak irony of people who install onto their computer some 5 or 10 apps via FlatPak or Docker, including VSCode, each installed with their own entire copies of Node.js and Electron.js (differing only in their minor revision number), while also complaining about Emacs being “bloated” because it ships with a miniature web browser and fully-featured e-mail client.

I've built a thing.

Sometimes my follower count seemingly fluctuates at random. To understand why, I dug into the #MastodonAPI and created "fedi-followers":

A privacy-friendly #fediverse #followers explorer as local-only static web app, decentrally hosted on the #ipfs. See who's actually following (and unfollowing) you over time and much more.
