Good times. Again though - the "web" is dead, and now I'm just waiting for QT to make a web edition. Or GTK. It's bound to happen.

I don't give a flying crap about toy "smart" phones. Get a real computer. One with a proper square screen (4:3 forever!), not a silly short screen.

I don't know if it works with Palemoon, but I use https://github.com/tom-james-watson/old-reddit-redirect for staying on Old Reddit. It redirectsReddit URL's on pages to point to the old.reddit.com domain.

If anyone needs/wants my SM-modded addons, request here and I'll drop a link.

That would be awesome, tomman! Gonna be very happy to make use of them all =^-^=

So I actually did get compa.moe running again, and was using SeaMonkey Composer... I noticed that it was adding the following invalid HTML attribute to anchor tags: moz-do-not-send="true"

This a bug or something else?

Posted by "A Stackoverflow"
The moz-do-not-send attribute is a signal used internally by Thunderbird to tell it not to include the full image file contents, but instead to simply link to the external image. It's a proprietary attribute used internally by Mozilla-derived software; it has never been part of any HTML specification.

[16:01] tomman Got a message from someone that actually uses Composer
[16:01] tomman why does the (proprietary) moz-do-not-send attribute get set for HTML links (the <a> tag) on Composer?
[16:02] tomman I try to search for the meaning for that attribute, and all I can find are references to Thunderbird
[16:06] tomman https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=596797#c8 also, this
[17:19] frg_Away tomman composer uses the standard Gecko editor parts and mail compose code. Comes as excess baggage. Coudl probably be patched out if someone still understands the code 😊

js: fix Javascript failures in Seamonkey/Palemoon.

Fix site Javascript failing to load in Seamonkey, Palemoon, and other
older browsers.

The @alpinejs/morph library uses public instance fields, which is ES2022
syntax not supported in older browsers. This is the code:

    var DomManager = class {
        el = void 0; // `el` is a public instance field
    }
    // => SyntaxError: bad method definition

The fix here is to separate the Alpine code into a separate bundle so
that a failure to load it doesn't cause the rest of the site's
Javascript to fail to load.

A better fix would be to either transpile the @alpinejs/morph library to
ES5 (which seems difficult to do in webpacker), or to fix the library
upstream to not use this syntax.
