Hi, Here is a small site with a directory of Dillo-friendly services: https://alex.envs.net/dillectory/ I'd like to develop this further and maintain it, so if anyone has feedback or additions, please let me know! Regards, Alex

If anyone cares about this issue, here is a simple fix to make sure that embedded images do not display when 'load_images' is disabled: --- a/src/html.cc Tue Sep 17 09:41:51 2024 +++ b/src/html.cc Tue Sep 17 09:42:44 2024 @@ -2165,7 +2165,6 @@ DilloImage *a_Html_image_new(DilloHtml *html, const ch html->images->set(html->images->size() - 1, hi); load_now = prefs.load_images || - !dStrAsciiCasecmp(URL_SCHEME(url), "data") || (a_Capi_get_flags_with_redirection(url) & CAPI_IsCached); if (load_now && Html_load_image(html->bw, url, html->page_url, image)) { Maybe it would be better to have a separate option to turn this off/on, but I won't bother with that unless there is interest in it. -Alex

Ideally this will all happen inside of Dillo, but until then, your idea should make it easier to start testing this feature. There are also possibilities to customize it, like excluding certain domains from being saved, or removing duplicate tabs, etc. -Alex

There are directory lists of "front-ends" as well: https://codeberg.org/skynet2982/awesome-alternative-front-ends https://github.com/mendel5/alternative-front-ends But they both include local programs/apps, and lots of "Web apps" that don't work any better than the original websites in Dillo due to CSS or JS. One that seems to be missing in those lists is the Laboratory JS-free front-end for GitLab, which works in Dillo: https://lab.vern.cc Gopher front-ends should be more compatible, via Dillo's Gopher plug-in. Many were listed in this discussion on Usenet in the comp.infosystems.gopher newsgroup: https://comp.infosystems.gopher.narkive.com/GASoqqif/gopher-based-services Although that might lead to making a Web browser that suggests people don't use the Web! > Some of those directories contain a lot of random stuff that > doesn't even work, which might be discouraging to new users. For directories of websites that work in Dillo, there's No-JS.club and noCSS.club: https://no-js.club/ https://nocss.club/ Probably even more "random stuff" there though.

Maybe we could list some basic service alternatives first, and then a few specific directory links? Some of those directories contain a lot of random stuff that doesn't even work, which might be discouraging to new users. Here is where I would start: Search: SearX instances https://searx.neocities.org/nojs Youtube: invidious instances https://api.invidious.io/ Reddit: libreddit instances https://github.com/libreddit/libreddit-instances/blob/master/instances.md RSS: rss-bridge instances https://rss-bridge.github.io/rss-bridge/General/Public_Hosts.html Social media: nitter instances https://status.d420.de/ Web Archive (sadly not foss): https://archive.is There are probably more I missed, but you get the idea. Perhaps then we could also mention the tildeverse: https://tildeverse.org It would take slightly more work to maintain a list like this rather than just having a list of directories, but I think it could be significantly more useful.

'load_images' pref ineffective on embedded images

by a1ex＠dismail.de

Hi, The pref 'load_images=NO' only disables loading images from a remote img src, and not from an embedded[1] data:image src. If this behavior is intentional, would it be reasonable to implement an option to disable all images? It might be the case that the user does not want to see any images, no matter the img src.

Re: Feature idea: save tabs list

I have an idea with minimal changes in dillo and various scripts. - Activate and format some MSGs in dillo - use a script to run dillo so saves and load tabs MSGs based Example: patch with make a script run_dillo.sh fn load_tabs ... dillo $@ | while read line echo $line # process dillo MSGs # MSG("a_UIcmd_open_url_nw: open url in new window '%s' bw=%p new_bw=%p\n", URL_STR(url), (void *) bw, (void *) new_bw); # MSG("a_UIcmd_open_url_nt: open url in new tab '%s' bw=%p new_bw=%p\n", URL_STR(url), (void *) bw, (void *) new_bw); # MSG("a_UIcmd_close_bw bw=%p\n", (void *) bw); # MSG("Nav_open_url: old_url='%s' idx=%d bw=%p\n", URL_STR(old_url), idx, (void *) bw); # MSG("Nav_open_url: saved scroll of '%s' at x=%d y=%d bw=%p\n", URL_STR(old_url), x, y, (void *) bw); # MSG("Nav: expect_done scrolling to x=%d y=%d bw=%p\n", posx, posy, (void *) bw); selec $line a_UIcmd_open_url_nw) ;; open new window anote bw a_UIcmd_open_url_nt) ;; open new tab anote bw a_UIcmd_close_bw) ;; delete window or tab Nav_open_url: old_url) ;; change url for tab Nav_open_url: saved scroll) ;; annotate scroll pos Nav: expect_done scrolling to) ;; annotate scroll pos Dillo: normal exit) ;; annotate normal exit El jue, 12 sept 2024 a las 20:01, <a1ex(a)dismail.de> escribió: > > Hi, > > It would be nice to have the ability to save a list of open tabs.
