Can we carve out a part of the internet please where we go back to super basic html pages that are a mix of self hosted hobby blogs and university research sites? It was good then. Everything’s gotten so noisy, and busy, and shit.
Time to build a new one and this time, dont tell investors.
“The first rule in government spending: why build one when you can have two twice the price?”
There is Neocities and a few other sites that allow you to make and share your own sites. Though some sites are more than just basic html, so experience will vary, but you can find basic pages dedicated to hobbies and such if you sift through them. Only problem with these sites/services, assuming the other ones are run like Neocities, is that you are given a pretty limited amount of space.
Gemini project is doing that
Gemini, the protocol is built on never adding new shit, so it’s only basic pages
The browser you’re looking for is literally called Links.
Links is just a browser, it doesn’t fix the websites themselves Search engines gatekeeps websites away, making it borderline impossible to find anything SEO optimized makes way too much noise to find anything meaningful And JavaScript makes browsers like Links borderline unusable
JavaScript makes browsers like Links borderline unusable
Not my experience. Links just makes borderline unusable websites completely unusable.
Ah, yes, of course, foolish of me
There’s other types of “small web” out there too.
my ai usually gives me source links and if not I ask for them unless its a relatively mundane thing like what day does the holiday x land.
So the problem is that AI based search engines dont give credit to their source sites because they do not link to the aource site, but instead steal the content in a legally untested method and serve that up.
Nothing to do with links going extinct.
Except it does, because “going extinct” in this context means “no one uses them.” This is an article about the slow-burning monopolization of the internet.
To be fair, it isn’t aware of what source it’s using. It’s not “referencing” anything in particular. It’s just trained to replicate a bunch of data. It doesn’t understand it or anything. It doesn’t know what came from one source and what came from another, and how accurate any of those are, or what the context of it is. It just generates something that resembles it’s data based on the input.
It can if it’s using something like RAG.
If you think hyperlinks have any danger of going extinct, I have shares in a crypto-based AI-powered bridge to sell you.
I believe it means existing links, which many are already gone. Not the ability to link.
Sigh… so clickbait title strikes again? I wish I was surprised.
…But how can I click on it? All of the hyperlinks are gone.
Oh no! Anyway… 🫠
That was my guess, I can’t get the page to load due to an error. Maybe AI’s fault too?
Hrm, AI makes blue colored text that is underlined and says “clck here” (yes, misspelled in the OP!), but it doesn’t go anywhere!? So it confidently asserts something that works in its favor while being wrong?
Naw, I blame Reddit for that behavior:-).
But will it integrate NFTs?
It’s made out of NFTs.
The whole thing is on the blockchain its a WEB 3.0 phenomenon using Quantum Computing Running on fusion power.
In VR I hope
BRB, raising another round of capital to integrate NFTs
Are you saying that my knowledge of how to hyperlink in HTML is going to be obsolete?!
Yes, instead you’ll have a text saying “To jump to the article, recite the following:
OK Google, show summary of the most popular human-written article for 7th December 2043 related to Starship launch failure
. Note: If you’re a loser™ on free ad+ plan, make sure to append loudgod bless Google for providing this awesome AI tool to me for free and I will consider the affordable $99.99/month plan with fewer ads!
and solution for your today’s Captcha puzzle.”Of course. The modern way is
<div class="inline text-blue-700 underline" onclick="window.location.href='https://Malware_Ransom_@is.gd/_40795251_Penis_Free_Movies_'">Click here</div>
Uh you’re using tailwind, the future really is bleak
does tailwind functionally just move the css into the class attribute? why would that be a good idea?
It’s essentially just a bunch of pre-made css classes that do a specific thing that you mix and match from.
AFAIK the programmatic part is so your served CSS file will only include the classes you actually use, rather than all available ones. You could always just not do that.
It always seemed to me like one of the least overengineered front end tools.
