Une autre FAQ bien utile

Adding query string for a referral (with ?via for example)

1. can broke the URL such as https://int10h.org/oldschool-pc-fonts/fontlist/?foo. Altering a URL gives you a new URL. The new URL could point to a completely different resource, or to no resource at all, even if the alteration is as small as adding a seemingly harmless query string.
2. There is already the HTTP Referrer header for that. It's governed by the Referrer-Policy

Somewhere out there, someone wrote a really good blog post today. You'll probably never find it. Google won't show it to you. Social media buried it under engagement bait.

Bubbles tries to surface it. Community voting applied to thousands of personal, independent blogs, with identity and discussion routed through the Fediverse.

Hacker News and Lobste.rs have community voting figured out, but non-tech content gets drowned by the tech majority. Kagi Small Web curates thousands of personal sites, but has no community-driven ranking. Blog directories help you find blogs, not today's best blog post. Social platforms own the conversation. Mastodon is decentralized and ad-free, but you only see what the people you follow share. RSS is great, but solitary. There's no collective signal telling you what's worth reading today.

• provide photos!
• booking online
• integrations (birthday, events, ...)

SEO is important for search engines and other services (TripAdvisor, Google Maps, Instagram). The majority of the users are using smartphones, so mobile-first is definitely a way to built these websites.

About the possibilities of the web

I came to this way of thinking by sheer accident. I was traditionally a desktop business app developer, and by the time I saw the writing on the wall, SPA frameworks were the dominant meta in front end. As I started getting contracts, I worked on one project with such a tight deadline that I simply had no time to bring a critical library into the cinematic React universe. So I just... wrote JS. I modified the DOM. And you know what? It was fine. Not only was it fine, it was easier. I wrote a little stream object in ~50 LoC to react to user inputs, and it worked flawlessly. I felt lied to. I thought making a web page interactive was an insanely difficult task only SPA framework authors were qualified to do? Yet here I was just... scripting the page.

The only cases to use framework is for project maintainability as I've found so far.
