Cool project, love the visuals. Wish it would merge as a plugin or something to a project like http://ghostty.org/ while I appreciate the visual fun, there are other pragmatic tools beyond visuals that are handy.
I think the best thing that could happen would be to be able to add shaders to windows in Wayland.
When MacOS 9 was a thing, I had an extension called “out of context menus” that added options such as “Gaussian blur” the the context menus so you could blur a window.
It can only apply shader(s) to the current frame I think. To produce the crt ghosting you'd probably need access to the previous frame (not an expert).
I've tried the shaders in the following repo with ghostty. They definitely work. I ended up keeping a cursor trail shader. https://github.com/0xhckr/ghostty-shaders
Yes, correct! If you check out https://ghostty.org/docs/config/reference, the iPreviousCursor is available, so it can be used against the iCurrentCursor to produce a fading effect. But I think the entire previous framebuffer isn't there (yet).
Qutebrowser fixes the main issue I have with Vimium: you cannot control the browser itself well. Vimium does not work in certain places due to limitations imposed by web extensions and this is incredibly frustrating for me.
Been using Vimium for years too and it's great, but it's really not the same. The late, great Vimperator extension was more comparable to QuteBrowser but it stopped functioning (on Firefox) when they switched from XUL to web extensions.
Vimium mainly gives you keyboard navigation, but QuteBrowser removes the address, tab and bookmark bars and instead gives you keyboard access to everything via the very Vim-like status bar at the bottom. Incidentally this also frees up quite a bit of vertical screen real estate, which is a big deal to me. Browser settings, scripts, etc. are also all accessible via the keyboard — Vim style.
Edit: The lack of a solid Bitwarden integration in QuteBrowser is kind of hurting though.
I’ve used both for many years. I’ve stopped using qutebrowser because it has some limitations due to be a bit behind on the web engine, which leads to problems with some sites. I still think it’s brilliant.
I wouldn’t say they do the same thing exactly. Vimium is similar to a vim-mode in something like VS Code, while qutebrowser is more like Vim itself. The Vim “spirit” is built-in and is the expectation rather than a layer added on top. The qutebrowser UI, already minimalistic, is also very configurable and scriptable.
The flip side to me is that some of the experience will be nicer with Chrome, the same way VS Code can be nicer and easier to manage.

Assuming you're on Linux, that's usually more of a problem with Linux distributions being behind on QtWebEngine. Though yeah, sometimes things are tight with QtWebEngine only updating their Chromium baseline once every 6 months. I try to ship workarounds (in the form of polyfills) with qutebrowser when I know about breakage, but usually for me things run smoothly.
No, I’m on macOS. I think my main issue was with videos that didn’t always play correctly. Can’t remember exactly but I think either on Reddit or Twitter, it was just not reliable.
Ah, I see. That's not due to the Chromium version though, it's because the Chromium that comes with Qt releases (which is what's shipped in qutebrowser releases) is built without proprietary codec support.
Unfortunately, support for proprietary codecs like MP4 and such requires building Qt from sources, and would also require me to acquire licenses for them all (I believe they're free until a certain number of distributions, but also with all the indirect ways you can get qutebrowser, I can hardly even provide that information).
This isn't an issue on Linux, because those licenses have some sort of exception in the sense of "if shipped with an operating system or its packages".
Homebrew seems to build its Qt packages against system ffmpeg with proprietary codecs enabled, and there's an issue open which would at least allow you to build a custom build against that: https://github.com/qutebrowser/qutebrowser/issues/4127
Maybe I should look into whether I'd be allowed to redistribute such builds (or what kind of paperwork I'd need to do for it). Unfortunately there's a lot on my plate, and macOS/Windows are admittedly somewhat second-class citizens as I don't use those myself.
Configuring the qutebrowser UI is a major reason I used qutebrowser for some years. I love ricing my system and saving screen real estate with a minimal UI bloat is nice.
I wish wordpress did fewer things but did them better. There should be something that is a notch better Jekyll but doesn't get gross when you install a dozen plug-ins. Out of the box wordpress produces a very slow and bandwidth heavy site.
* Google for “Dotclear”, get the first result with no description (“No information is available for this page. Learn why”) - not a good first impression
* Dotclear website’s theme is ugly verging on purposefully ugly. At least WP default themes look decent
* Click on “About” to see what this runs on (homepage doesn’t tell me), nothing loads. Oh! I have to click one of these header tabs/links, odd… “About” -> “Overview” still doesn’t tell me what language this is written in. Click “Pre-requisite” finally see it’s PHP+(MySQL/Postgres/SQLite)
For software that’s been around since 2003 I kind of expect better and I expect have heard of it since back in 2009-2011-ish I was doing a fair bit of WP development.
Would love to see more of the output data.
- How many win/loss clusters did the data produce?
- In vector space what was the seperation between B2B and B2C companies?
- Did you normalize against size of win/market-cap or anything else?
Would be great if Google/Apple/Microsoft could lead some of these Internet upgrade initiatives. I think we have more cross corporate collaboration on Emoji selection.
They did. Google's one is called Gmail, and Microsoft's one is called Outlook 365. They each want you to use their product and offer you improved service if you only use their product and talk to other people who are using their product. But Apple got the best lock-in with iMessage.
