HN discussionThe same kind as a similar recent post [1] where a person pointed out a bunch of problems with Omarchy's shell scripts as examples of it being terrible. Open a pull request. That's how this is supposed to work. Wisdom of the crowd and what not. 1. https://xn--gckvb8fzb.com/a-word-on-omarchy/

HN discussionhttps://getaether.net/ is an attempt at a modern usenet, i.e. decentralised discussion. However it doesn’t have many users or third party clients. https://xn--gckvb8fzb.com/superhighway84/ is a more directly nostalgia inspired clone of usenet.

HN discussionAs a tangent, this site will overwrite its <title> and favicon if your browser changes tab to one of many random options, as well as showing an overlay highlighting the risk of keeping javascript enabled for once you're back. I dug around and found them listed within the `kill.js` file[0]. It uses the visibilitychange[1] API and swaps it to one of the following: Official Church of Scientology: Difficulties on the Jo…
