It is also disappointing that #WebAuthn does not even attempt to fix the existing mechanisms for public-key authentication on the web – TLS mutual authentication, or the obsolete HTML <keygen> element – but instead creates an entirely new, incompatible solution based on JavaScript, which makes it difficult to adapt to smaller projects like #gemini or #weblite.

Be Daring to Push your Ads Forward: Measuring the (Over)use of Service
Workers for Advertising Purposes

https://arxiv.org/abs/2110.11241

How a new web "standard", the Service Workers API, has for its main result to enable "Push Advertising, in 65.08% of the Service Workers that connect with 3rd parties".

Yay... Looking forward for #weblite to help us out of this.

#web #advertising

@mezzodrinker @solidsanek Hopefully #weblite project achieves some success.

What do #weblite people think about #RDFa and #Microdata?

@alexandra Why not channel #weblite? Libera's policies are a little different to Freenode's, and I believe #weblite would be proper for this kind of thing.
