Oct 22, 2026, 3:41 PM@ericsedge Asking for clairification: No PHP, OK. But also no HTTPS? No CSS? (I'll punt on JavaScript for now.)
Or am I misunderstanding what you meant?

Eric's Edgeericsedge@mastodon.socialOct 22, 2026, 3:45 PM@liw I’m not really advocating for abandoning modern tech. It’s really just that I miss the innocence of the early web (before commercial use). We didn’t have or didn’t routinely use HTTPS early on because it wasn’t needed.

@ericsedge ACK. All my sites are static files, no "backend" apart from the HTTP server. They do use HTTPS and CSS though, since I find those to be good things. I'd have used those in the 90s if they'd be widely available.
PoslovitchPoslovitch@wikis.worldOct 22, 2026, 3:46 PM@liw @ericsedge I suppose no HTTPS due to the SSL certificates being compromised?
But I'm definitely not condoning "no HTTPS".
And CSS? let us keep css! I want to style my websites as if they were made in the early 90s!
