I know it's easy to get down on the web, but I've seen so many cool projects and blogs and personal sites and attempts to (re?)build a more human web free of corporate social media and the enshittified part of the web...
It's giving me hope that we can build an Alternative Web. The People's Web. Free of AI bullshit, free of advertisements and tracking and all that crap so many of us just do not want.

Oh yesss! 🤩 The 2025 #Web #Almanac has just been released. Can’t wait to read a bit …

Red Alert: DOJ Web Rule in Danger
Last June, I wrote about the growing threats to the DOJ’s ADA Title II Web Accessibility Rule. That warning feels understated now. If you care about the accessibility of state and local government websites, read on. There are credible rumors…

When your form has a validation failure, you should show the submitted data prefilled in the form.
NOT erase the big textarea of information I just provided you that I didn't save to the clipboard before posting, assuming your web developers are competent.
Only unprofessional morons make sites that bad...

TikTok trackt Nutzer umfassend, auch wenn sie die App nicht nutzen
TikTok verfolgt Internetnutzer inzwischen auch auf fremden Webseiten, selbst wenn diese die App gar nicht installiert haben. Aggressive Pixel erfassen sogar sensible Gesundheitsdaten, um detaillierte Werbeprofile zu erstellen.

I recently got a “new” iPad (meaning, a used model from 2020) and I was amazed at how terrible it was for web browsing. Then I realized I forgot to point it at my Pi-hole install for DNS.
So much of the (commercial) web is nearly unusable on old(er) devices because of the amount of advertising crammed onto a page.
(Indie sites personal blogs, etc are mostly unaffected. Recipe sites though… whew!)

Getting Started With The Popover API — Smashing Magazine
What happens if you rebuild a single tooltip using the browser’s native model without the aid of a library?

slash pages
A guide to common pages you can add to your website

This is a fantastic, factual, very technical, but readable and understandable breakdown of why and how every news website is bad UI design and decimates your device with tracking, negotiating, and modal pop up hell.

Alright my web friends! 👋 Hands up who has experienced a surge in (LLM) bot traffic recently and maybe even had to take steps against them? I’m writing a blog post about this atm and it would be great to hear whether others are experiencing the same with their #blogs and personal #websites.

It's fun to watch your web server's access log after posting a link to your website on Mastodon. While typing in whatsapp and adding a link to my site I noticed that Whatsapp is of course a very rude client.
