Yeah, they’ve been doing this sort of thing for quite a while.


Kiwix isn’t a web browser exactly and doesn’t download web pages the way your browser saves them. It uses a specialized file format, and it can be used to back up an entire site. For instance the kiwix library has an offline copy of wikipedia (no images), but it weighs in at more than 100GB last I looked.




As much as I’m not terribly fond of the guy, IIRC he’s 36, which makes ‘88’ likely short for 1988, the year he was born.


I just run a shaarli instance on an old laptop and keep all my bookmarks there and just access it from where/whatever.


Nah, I’m good. I’m fine with services being limited to what information they can convince my browser to give them, rather than what they can convince my phone to give them. Or try and convince me to give them permission to access.


I wouldn’t even bring my phone, or if I absolutely needed something like that, I’d buy a cheapass pre-paid burner. And keep it off until you actually need it.


Yep, I and a few friends use it.


I’ve wandered through a bunch of them. Used to use Florisboard. Unexpected Keyboard is pretty good too. The Hacker’s Keyboard for some stuff. Mostly these days Heliboard for general typing.


Ah, my bad. I missed the ‘open-source’ requirement. But yes, I mostly use it because it’s all markdown so I can use it with whatever.



I recently (yesterday) discovered a web-based port of Audacity. I haven’t messed with it much and don’t do much audio editing in general, but it’s here FWIW.
