Using ASCII in URLs is simple and is less error prone than “supporting” unicode via percent encoding. It is also just a convention to use ASCII for usernames in many platforms. ASCII is also supported out of the box in major OSes while some unicode characters might not. What about impersonation? And what about people trying to type in the username of someone that uses unicode? It is not logical to use unicode in this case.

Because URLs are usually in ASCII. That was a standard. Check RFC 1738 and 3986. Now, you can use percent encoding, but why use that. It just complicates things.

You won’t get non latin usernames anytime soon. But you can change the display name using non latin charactets

I said:

I couldn’t care less as long as the language is good.

Why wouldn’t I care if the language is bad in my opinion?

Sure. It is open source, but the development is done by Apple engineers. I also would like to state that Go has trackers in it. I also don’t really care what the creator of a language is. Homophobe, sexist, racist or other similar stuff, I couldn’t care less as long as the language is good.

lol

Oh great. Now I’m losing hope in this project even more.

No, not at all. They both are made for different purposes.

Welp, I haven’t seen anyone learn Swift other than for Apple stuff these days. So I wonder how many can actually contribute to the code. It’s also made by Apple, so yeah. It would have been more performant and secure (both of which are pretty important in a browser) if it was written in a more low level language. For example Rust.

It’s nice and all but usage of Swift is kind of not great.

Arch Linux

Gaming has not been a problem for me yet.

Proton works pretty good and games in Steam are starting to release builds for Linux as well because Steam Deck got popular (thanks Valve?) Minecraft Java also runs natively on Linux.

If that were to happen, the receiving end wouldn’t know who sent which vote, thus making spamming extremely easy.

I’ll just wait a few days or even weeks before doing any big updates, read the news page of archlinux.org and maybe some forum stuff. Nothing broke so far on my personal laptop, but I also don’t tinker alot. All of the data of the containers are also stored in a storagebox from Hetzner so the system breaking wouldn’t even mean that much, I’ll just restore from a snapshot and everything will be fine.

I also might think of switching to NixOS instead. They say it’s hard but pays off well and can be very stable.

Ubuntu server, though I am thinking of using arch even though it is a rolling distro. It doesn’t really matter. As long as docker is supported, I am fine using any.

I still think Briar and SimpleX are the best ones for both privacy and anonymity.

I understand you. Zed does give me some headaches sometimes but I mean it’s still pretty alpha. Maybe I’ll switch back to vscodium until zed becomes more mature after all. Though they never said it was an IDE so I don’t expect for it to be ever feature rich as vscodium.

I switched to Zed recently. Very basic and definitely is not as feature rich as VSCodium but I’m sure it’ll get better.

Some useful files I might need someday (of course encrypted), bootable linux rescue distro and of course tailsos just in case.
