 Remember the Flock social web browser? @chrismessina brought it up the other day, and fortunately, there are still a bunch of demo videos on YouTube. I wonder which of its features from back then are still good ideas that we don't have today. Anybody building a social browser today? 5 comments
@alcinnz Hi :-) Obviously you have your own things in mind for your browser development challenges, but here's another idea ..: if "social" (social media in general, the fediverse, ...) were native part of the browser, how could / should that look like? How would one solve the technical challenges that come with it? In case you wanted to add a bonus challenge :-) @J12t @alcinnz @freeideas ...and in case you want some 18 year old mockups that still haven't been realized! 😉 https://www.flickr.com/photos/factoryjoe/albums/72057594068514811/ @J12t @chrismessina Beaker was interesting while it lasted. The GitHub repo includes a great postmortem. https://github.com/beakerbrowser/beaker/blob/master/archive-notice.md @josh @chrismessina Right, and the guy who did it now leads BlueSky tech. But no browser from them so far :-) |
