URLs should be able to include HTTP verbs and headers.

They say "URLs define the "what" not the "how"" but protocol prefixes, file extensions, and query parameters are part of the how and yet they all exist in the URL.

Leaving HTTP verbs and headers out of URLs was an arbitrary decision.

Google "has all the important parts of the web, plus niche sites, abandoned blogs, sketchy copies of legitimate websites, copies of those copies, and AI-rephrased copies of the copied copies—basically everything. And the result of this Herculean digital inventory is a search experience that feels increasingly discombobulated," writes Ryan Whitwam for @arstechnica as he delves into how unleashing Google's search index and algorithm could remake the web.

Ars Technica · Google’s nightmare: How a search spinoff could remake the webBy Ryan Whitwam

New blogpost: "I'm experimenting with no longer converting Markdown-formatted toots to html, for more consistent rendering"

I'd prefer nicely-formatted toots, and basic html formatting doesn't seem too much to ask in microblogging clients, but the inconsistencies between fedi clients are not ideal.

I'm experiment, but I'll probably settle for toots formatted less nicely, but more consistently, for users.

I would also like to do this, but I don't know if I can stomach the manual process he describes. Most likely I'd need to build out some tools. And just from archiving my old content on other platforms I can relate to his pain about the issues encountered when trying to archive other people's webpages or links like poor redirects, defunct services.

»Scams, wohin man schaut–Meta ist untätig bei Deepfake-Betrug, sagt die eigene Ethikkommission:
Betrüger können auf Facebook und Instagram ungehindert Prominente imitieren, während Meta tatenlos zuschaut und die Werbedollars einstreift«

Ach was, das ist nun so zu sagen offiziell und denen kümmert es einen Quatsch ausser Ausreden? So wie immer und seit je her sind die Profit gierig.

He reunido las herramientas que he hecho en un solo lanzador de mis "Pachi-apps" jeje, el resultado es un "MicroOS" (Que de OS no tiene nada jajaja pero me gusta cómo suena) tiene las herramienta que he hecho y que suelo utilizar. Pronto disponible en mi GitHub y Codeberg (Que ya estoy migrando a este último)

FYI - For Your Information.

I regularly answer to a #toot with just a bunch of #hashtags related to the content or media of the said #post.

It's not only a matter of search engine optimization (#SEO), but also a stake of #findability for this #content.

If search engines (#DuckDuckGo, #Kagi, #SearxNG...) may index your #Mastodon account, according to you settings,
the software itself does not index a toot unless it has a #hashTag.

Wir können gerne hier im Fediverse / Mastodon darüber diskutieren bis evt. ein Server überlastet ist und dann evt. das Internet entdecken 😅

caf.fr/ inaccessible avec Firefox ? Sous Linux uniquement ou Windows est concerné aussi ?

Le site se charge, puis se grise comme si il y avait une popup à la con à valider ... qu'on ne voit pas, donc impossible de se connecter ...

Mais putain, apprenez à coder merde ! 🤬
