Opera 12, with its insanely fast Presto engine and tab grouping that Chromium-based browsers only recently emulated.

Yes, I know about Vivaldi, but it's just not the same.

I tried Vivaldi a few times over the years, and the UI is always really slow; there's a noticeable lag with everything.

But yeah, I really miss Opera; still the best browser to date. I also really liked the Opera Dragonfly devtools.

Some of the people who worked on Wunderlist are working on a new todo app, Superlist. https://superlistapp.com

Digging the logo! I really think it needs to be clickable to go home though.

Thanks for your feedback! Yes, you are right, I just made it to be clickable, and it does make more sense like this :) I designed and made this logo some while ago - glad you like it!

I remember installing Ubuntu just to be able to use OpenShot, there was nothing like it on Windows where I had to do most of my work. Great to see that it’s cross-platform now, as of about 9 years ago.

The man in question is Thomas Midgley Jr., the inventor of leaded gasoline, for those who don't want to watch a 24min video that buries the lead (pardon the pun).

> He devised an elaborate system of ropes and pulleys to lift himself out of bed. In 1944, he became entangled in the device and died of strangulation

Causing death fueled by good motives seems to have been a constant in his life.

Evernote started going south for me in 2014. I switched to OneNote and things were great, but it’s far more than I need.

These days I just use Apple Notes and it’s been flawless.

Notion looks neat but I’m wary of startups now. I’d probably use SimpleNote if I switched.

I also have a bunch of scattered markdown notes everywhere, wouldn’t be too hard for me to just sync a folder and use something like Typora to make adding images easier.

v3 was the last good Firefox UI imo, even if it was heavily inspired by IE.

v4 was a ripoff of Opera's design at the time.

Australis was a Chrome UI clone.

The Photon design is my second favorite after v3.

I really hope Proton gets dropped. Worst one they've done since Australis.

It shows unrelated videos for me in a section in the middle of the search results. Even better (/s), they appear to autoplay and buffer on mobile.

Manual Matuzovic has a good HTML boilerplate, and he goes line-by-line into what it does. https://www.matuzo.at/blog/html-boilerplate/

I'm in the same boat. I ran and maintained my own VPS for a decade to host several WordPress sites. I'm not a sysadmin, and package updates can be a nightmare if you only deal with it once every few months.

Ultimately I gave up and moved to SSGs + CloudFlare Pages, and put the WordPress sites I couldn't convert on managed hosting. My life has been so much easier.

This all will change in the future - I do think the free SSG hosting is a temporary loss leader for these companies. Hosting on a VPS would yield faster builds and serving static files isn't hard. And I'm sure there will be even easier ways to host WordPress sites.
