I always spell it 'wierd' and then have to fix it

I'd love to add push support to my social reader. Getting notifications for webmentions would be really nice. Sites where you kick off some kind of job/process could notify you about changes in status, sites for delivery tracking could notify you about status updates.
And I assume the user is always in control so they can determine which notifications they receive and the priority of each type of notification.
Whoa. This looks like a super cool technology. It's made out of vegetable waste, enables collecting solar energy even when not in direct sunlight, and the panels are flexible so they can be integrated in more than just flat windows. I'm really excited about these and how they could enable easy solar energy.

Each reason points to a deeper problem: our economy’s inability to value the right things.
This is a fascinating article about a low-tech solution to alleviate some of our climate problems, but with a depressing ending. Political leaders, technologists, and capitalism itself don't value technologies that aren't flashy or are developed and iterated on by native peoples.
It reminds me of my own field, web development, where people are drawn to highly engineered, flashy toolchains instead of working with the systems that is already present (browsers, HTML, DOM APIs, etc). I think the author is right that people want the solution to be separate from the base system. People like the idea of starting from scratch to try to control all the variables, instead of working around issues with creative solutions.
Nice work! If you want to dive even deeper, there's more to PWAs. Adding a ServiceWorker would allow you to cache your assets and even enable offline support.
Jeremy Keith has written a ton on the topic that I've found really useful.
This is the first I'm hearing of whostyles and it sounds really cool. I might try to implement one for my site when I get a chance. Thanks to Maya for posting about this on Lemmy.
The replies I've seen to this post are so frustrating. You can definitely use the latest Javascript features and APIs while still providing access to older browsers and devices. You don't have to provide special access, determine a list of supported versions, or build a specific version for those browsers/devices.
Use a proper HTML foundation and your site will work without Javascript in nearly any browser. That covers weird edge cases like the one described. Then use the module/nomodule technique so you can write the sleekest code with all the modern amenities and still provide an ES5 bundle to browsers that need it. Then your site will work in nearly all cases, no matter the device, browser, or bugs in your code.

Check out https://searchmysite.net/. It's another independent search engine, though focused on independent websites in general, not just IndieWeb sites. Parts of it are in python and the developer has been looking for other contributors. Maybe your two projects could collaborate or they've picked up some ideas that you could use.
A retrospective of how things have gone until year end 2021, and based on that some thoughts on where it should go in 2022.
Man, this is really sad to hear. Luckily, Search My Site isn't going anywhere right now, but costs steadily rising while usage remains steadily low is disheartening. We really need independent infrastructure like this, but we have to find a way to support it without advertisement.
Wow. I wasn't even in web development yet and I've been using HTML5 my entire career. I can't imagine hoping the web would be subsumed by native apps or thinking it would become obsolete. That was the era of move fast and break things, though, so imagining something being stable for more than a decade must have been hard.
