weirdr.net is a Fediverse instance that uses the ActivityPub protocol. In other words, users at this host can communicate with people that use software like Mastodon, Pleroma, Friendica, etc. all around the world.
This server runs the snac software and there is no automatic sign-up process.
Help me, fedi .. What is a good, simple, light-weight GUI #editor with #HTML syntax highlighting, some half-smart auto-indenting, soft-wrapping support, that is non-opinionated about tabs/spaces and that is not a vi/vim/emacs derivative or wrapper?
I'm currently hand-coding HTML in jEdit, and .. something has happened to it. I used to tout it as an example of "look, Java does not have to be slow!" back on my Pentium III laptop, but now .. damn, that thing is a pain.
Pluma is doing everything "wrong", mousepad has no highlighting, and I don't need an "IDE" - I'm writing HTML 3.2 here :)
Must work on #FreeBSD and have as few dependencies as possible.
Turns out Netscape 2.02 is too easy, so in this picture is IBM WebExplorer v1.1h running on OS/2 Warp Connect. Using the magic "work area" feature of folders (mark a folder as a work area to have the OS manage objects within it as a kind of unit), I can open several windows at once. True multi-process browsing 😉
