[Meme] Over-the-Web JavaScript Itself is the Problem (Someone Else's Server Running Code on Someone Else's PC)

Alex Oliva et al (including Richard Stallman) mentioning Gemini: Alexandre Oliva: The WWWorst App Store

Yesterday (by FSF): FSF announces JShelter browser add-on to combat threats from nonfree JavaScript | Keeping your freedom intact when registering or renewing as a DMCA agent

I told you. Just move to Gemini. I've made more JS.
Workarounds are not solutions. Maybe another approach is, let's get off the Web (to the extent possible). There are also benefits for the environment and that scales well for residential connections (hosting from home, self-hosting).



Gemini near 1700 October
Gemini near 1,700 known capsules now. It's growing fast. More of us adopt it [1, 2].



Summary: JavaScript as a concept (Web sites running code on someone else's computer) is flawed; for more things we need to adopt and spread something like Gemini (where such a mindset is strongly and actively discouraged)
