What TLDs to use if you cannot snatch a .com ?

Which ones are professional and generally well perceived?

HTML: best programming language confirmed

I am legitimately confused. Is this an issue with the community? Is one of the most popular TypeScript ORMs crap? Can anyone explain?

we made a custom website for a chair manufacturer. what do you think of the design?

I'll try to make this as short as I can, but with enough info to make sense. Be warned, I am not a programmer or developer by any means. I'm just a hobbyist who spends a lot of time trying to learn on my own.

I'm looking to save "https://scorecount.com/tennis/" locally on a PC so that it can be used offline. I've done the normal "right click, save as" routine in both Firefox and Chrome, which saves the main page (I save it with the name "tennis") as well as a similarly named folder that contains the js, css, and image files. (so, in my case... "tennis.html" and a folder called "tennis_files")

When I try open the tennis.html file, my browser eventually gets to a "we're having trouble finding that site" message. The URL it's trying to reach in the URL bar is "https://driveLetter/path/on/local/drive/tennis.html", instead of the more expected "file:///driveLetter/path/on/local/drive/tennis.html".

I believe I've narrowed this down to something in the tennis.js file (which gets renamed to "tennis.js.download" when I save the page locally). If I remove this file, the page loads, but of course it doesn't actually work. I think something in there is redirecting the URL, but now that the file is saved locally the path it's creating and trying to reach doesn't work.

I've tried going through the js, deciphering all of the array references as best I can, but I'm not able to figure out where this is happening. I'm hoping someone can throw me a lifeline. Thanks in advance!

Edit: Update in comment

Hello,

My goal is to make specific edits to Lemmy's default frontend. The big problem I'm facing is that the UI is running inside a docker container and is also written using inferno which seems to be transpiled / compiled into non-user-friendly js files.

My assumption here is that I'd have to download the source, edit it, compile and then host my own container.

I was wondering if anyone has done this and if there are any tips, pointers or guides that could be shared.

Thank you!

htmx is a very different way of developing your web application. You can define a lot of behaviour inside your HTML with the new attributed added by htmx. This allows you to build an interactive website without using any JavaScript. You do need a REST API that returns HTML though.

For more information about HTMX you can read the htmx docs.

I see this more and more lately: go to log in to some site, and they only show the username field. Enter username, click Submit, then a password field appears. Enter password, click Submit again, and then we're logged in.

This makes using a password manager super annoying, because I have to trigger the autofill twice.

Is there some security-related reason more sites are doing this? Is it an anti-bot thing? I'm just really curious, because it seems so pointless on its face, but it seems to be spreading.
