      I am experiencing genuine delight at the irony of the discussion about such an important development in the history of the Web being derailed by a flurry of reports of HTTP errors :)

        The website reports 404 on this link.

          The link works for me

          1. 1

            Weird, for me too, can see it on the mainpage then got 404 trying to access it, only available using vpn or wayback machine.

            1. 1

              only available using vpn

              Hmm… maybe I’m geoblocked in Australia?

            2. 1

              I get a 403 even!

              This link is only for the enlightened or something.

                No idea, works for me everytime. CDN issue? I’m in Europe.

                It’s probably an interesting project, but I will just nope on it, for the same reasons I have noped on hyprland. People on IRC showed me this and, well, yeah. Nope.

                1. 1

                  It looks like that PR is working as intended then!

                  1. 1

                    fwiw, the drama event around that old PR resulted in changes to the contribution policies/CoC for both SerenityOS and Ladybird. Though if Andreas’s personal beliefs and tweets are still a nope for you, that probably won’t be worth much to your opinion on the project as a whole.

                    1. 1

                      Looks like it took 3 years, but it happened eventually. They should probably mention it in the PR, since clearly, people are still talking about it.

                  2. 4

                    Interesting to learn that they’re not planning to support Windows or Android (for the moment). Limits reach, but it’s also a useful limit to scope - the sort of decision you can make in a noncommercial project.

                    1. 3

                      “ Greetings flesh bag, you have unearthed a 404 error. That page? The one you were looking for? Not here.”

                      It happens even if I click the article headline from the index of their site. Tried Firefox and Chromium. On Dillo it doesn’t load at all, figured I’d try for fun but it gets a TLS error related to Fastly.

                      I see someone tried to archive it with archive.is and that didn’t work either (shows 404 error). Strange stuff.

                      1. 3

                        The article has a minor error, the cofounder of GitHub is https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chris_Wanstrath

                          Isn’t this story ancient history by now? It was discussed a while back: https://lobste.rs/s/2f29df/i_m_forking_ladybird_stepping_down_as
