This has been a long time coming. Hats off to the Debian team for taking that final step.
Hopefully this will encourage better development standards across the board. It looks like there really aren’t that many packages that need to be updated to fix this.
Can you select a shittier site for this news? Since it’s everywhere, I’m sure you can find one or two with even more internet cancer. Thanks bye.
Try the other side of bed perhaps?
Yeah, like this: https://lists.debian.org/debian-devel-announce/2026/05/msg00001.html
https://lists.debian.org/ only shows me “AI scrapers break the web, to use this page you’ll need JavaScript enabled.”
The OP link shows me the article and a graph, without needing scripts, or cross-site scripts, or cookies. So I guess for people trying to protect themselves against the enshitified web with NoScript and uBlock origin, it’s actually better than lists.debian.org
Or, really, you could make a noscript exception for a legitimate purpose for a site that doesn’t serve ads.
The OP page still fucks up tho:
- doesn’t allow scrolling away the garbage banner-ad-ish thing at the top,
- has emojis in the actual article,
- needless words to pad it out,
- adding " (linked earlier)" instead of just linking the 2 preceding words,
- the article is less than half the page height,
- despite the wasted whitespace on the sides,
- …
