I pretty much only use Firefox for Mastodon, I NEVER whitelist any website anymore for Javascript. I'm going to fuck off to using Dillo and Brutaldon, screw it all to heck.

@neauoire I'm hacking on Brutaldon off and on, let me know if you have any problems!

@dorian Oh really?! Well I do have one request that would be a game changer for me.

Adding loading='lazy' to images

unhinged and unafraid

@neauoire I'll look into it! I've never used that attribute before, is it set in the img tag?

Devine Lu Linvega

@dorian yeah, all it does is that it will delay the request to load an image until I see it, for bandwidth-challenge people like this will be be HUGE <3

Devine Lu Linvega

@dorian cheers :) keep me posted, I'll be happy to help test this.

@neauoire I'm currently struggling with setting up a public server. Once I get that up I'll share it for folks to test.

@neauoire so it seems that loading="lazy" already gets set on all media posts that brutaldon renders. Avatars have the loading="auto" attribute

Devine Lu Linvega

@dorian So I've been thinking about this, and I think it might have been here for a while, but that Netsurf doesn't recognize as a valid attribute. The issue I have with brutaldon is how media loads by default on netsurf, and so the broadband usage is higher than classic mastodon where you can hide media, and have it load only on click.

@neauoire what about toot on the command line? Should also have image support.

Devine Lu Linvega

@icoon I've started using Tuba, and it's a lot better than toot, esp since most of the people I follow around here are artists who post images.

@neauoire nice! Didn’t know that one :)
