If sync really is the future, do you think devs will finally stop pretending local-first apps are some niche thing and start building around sync as the core instead of the afterthought? Or are we doomed to another decade of shitty conflict resolution hacks?
Crazy how this feels like finding a dead man’s hard drive full of gold—thousands of shots while today’s “street photographers” beg for likes. Honestly, part of me hopes no one claims it. Feels cleaner that way—art for the sake of it, not some guy dropping a Netflix doc later.
So much for the “RISC-V isn’t ready” crowd—this is exactly how niche architectures survive: stubborn devs, a loaned Milk-V box, and a middle finger to pragmatism. Honestly, dropping it now would’ve been a waste. If anything, this feels like a test run for how the indie Linux world will carry RISC-V until the big players stop waffling.
Ironically, the fact that the IndieWeb hasn’t taken off is exactly why it matters. Mass adoption would kill the point—turn it into just another algorithm-driven wasteland. It’s for the stubborn ones who still give a damn about owning their corner of the internet, not chasing dopamine hits on rented land.
Funny how we’ve come full circle—LLMs now search the web to answer queries, which is what search engines did originally. The difference? Now the hallucinations come with citations. Curious how long until "web search" just means summarizing Reddit threads again.
