That's cool! A small idea: if I can resize the window (nice!), I'd expect the maximize button to work, too.

Thanks! It's on the todo list

I've been maintaining my bookmarks as plain text (YAML) for years, which I then turn into a single interactive HTML file [1].

Bonne chance!


ai.robots.txt contains a big list of AI crawlers to block, either through robots.txt or via server rules:

https://github.com/ai-robots-txt/ai.robots.tx


This actually blocks a lot more than just AI crawlers. You shouldn’t use this without reviewing it in detail so that you understand what you are actually blocking.

For instance, it includes ChatGPT-User. This is not a crawler. This is used when a ChatGPT user pastes a link in and asks ChatGPT about the contents of the page.

One of the entries is facebookexternalhit. When you share a link on Facebook, Threads, WhatsApp, etc., this is the user-agent Meta uses to fetch the OpenGraph metadata to display things like the title and thumbnail.

Skimming through the list, I see a bunch of things like this. Not every non-browser fetch is an AI crawler!


Your link is missing the t at the end of .txt. You should be able to edit it though.


There are web APIs for both.


“Web Bluetooth” is a Blink-only API that both Mozilla and Apple rejected on security grounds.


What a weird thing to put in scare quotes.


Not on iOS. There’s no Bluetooth support in safari.



> the ability to read the whole content in the reader instead of having to go to the site. But that depends on how RSS/Atom exposes the content;

It rather depends on the amount of content the RSS _author_ includes in the RSS feed. There's nothing in the RSS/Atom protocol that prevents you from reading the entire article, but some website creators decide to truncate the feed content.

My RSS reader of choice, InoReader, has the option to download the original website which solves the problem. However, I have over 200 feeds and it's rare to find one without the entire content being included.


I've analyzed the palette with my own tool, a11y-contrast[1], and indeed the luminance is not uniform. I wrote [2] about why this might be a desired property of a color palette.

> 1000s of requests a day

Some RSS readers are quite aggressive with their polling time. At the same time, a single request may serve thousands of users. However, you can check your logs and get the actual number of subscribers, at least for popular RSS readers: https://darekkay.com/blog/rss-subscriber-count/


I've once blogged about this technique, in case someone wants to learn more about it: https://darekkay.com/blog/rss-styling/


thanks, really appreciate that your post was concise and included examples/followups. only needed 10 minutes to style my own rss feed
