Resurrecting the Dillo browser

In plain words

Resurrecting the Dillo browser is a community effort to preserve and maintain Dillo, a lightweight web browser, after its original domain expired in 2022. The project involves maintaining the codebase on GitHub and keeping it buildable for modern systems. It is for developers and users interested in a minimal, efficient browser, and has gained traction through ports to platforms like Atari, demonstrating ongoing community interest in reviving this abandoned project.

From the sources

Read the user manual to discover how to use all the features. We are moving Dillo from GitHub to our own self-hosted server at https://dillo-browser.org . All important data is now stored in git repositories served by the cgit service and replicated across Codeberg and Sourcehut . Check the old website for more details. The domain dillo.org is no longer under control of Dillo developers. There are several pieces of documentation available, it is recommended that users read the User Manual and the Topic Guide. Download the latest release 3.2.0 and follow the README.md instructions to build Dillo. You can also clone the latest changes directly from the Git repository . Dillo can easily be…from dillo-browser.github.io

In the maker’s words, at launch

Hi, in mid 2022 the host dillo.org expired [0], taking down the website, mercurial repo, the mailing list and the email server used to reach the core developers of Dillo. Someone bought it and now serves a weird clone of the original page with missing content. [0]…

  I built SimRepo, a browser extension that adds a “Similar Repositories” panel directly into GitHub repo pages (for repos with 150+ stars). It's useful for discovering related projects while browsing. It's based on a vectorized model trained on GitHub star data. Repo: https://github.com/Mubelotix/SimRepo Chrome/Firefox support, no tracking, fully open source. Would love feedback on the recommendation quality or UX!

  I rewrote the 1990's LambdaMOO server2023 · github.com · ▲174

  I got my start on the Internet in the very early 90s playing with, authoring in, and programming on LambdaMOO (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/LambdaMOO) and similar systems. Shared virtual social spaces, with a persistent object oriented authoring / scripting language. They can be classified as MUDs (depending on who you talk to) but the focus is social, creative / authoring, and shared programming not RPG gaming. I've always wanted to see this kind of thing modernized and further developed. Over the last 25 years or so I've worked on similar but novel & improved…

  Hi HN, I’m a fullstack developer, and honestly, I’ve lost count of how many side projects I’ve worked on over the years. But one idea kept coming back to me: a different kind of email client. It first came to me in 2014: “What if we could handle emails more like conversations?” Every year, I’d revisit this concept in my “Build Notes.” Ten years later, no one had built exactly what I had in mind — so I finally decided to do it myself. That’s how Talanoa was born. I wanted something focused on people, not timelines. I was tired of marking messages as unread just to remember to reply later, or…
