Am I the only one who's not buying into the Wayland hype? I just want X11 support not to fall into disrepair, as I see nothing wrong with it.
Some cognitive dissonance going on here. The vast majority of current Linux Desktop users are on Wayland, and X11 is phased out across the board. Calling it hype is absurd.

That depends on how Postel's law is interpreted.
What's reasonable is: "Set reserved fields to 0 when writing and ignore them when reading." (I heard that was the original example). Or "Ignore unknown JSON keys" as a modern equivalent.
What's harmful is: Accept an ill defined superset of the valid syntax and interpret it in undocumented ways.
Good modern protocols will explicitly define extension points, so 'ingoring unknown JSON keys' is in-spec rather than assumed that an implementer will do.

Browsers consider ‘localhost’ a secure context without needing https
For local /network/ development, maybe, but you’d probably be doing awkward hairpin natting at your router.
it's nice to be able to use https locally if you're doing things with HTTP/2 specifically.
Nobody is interested in AI commentary.

> hx-target attribute is explicitly declared as inherited on the enclosing div and, if it wasn’t, the button elements would not inherit the target from it.
So confusing. I'm pretty sure it should be "inheritable", because "inherited" on an attribute means the attribute is inherited, not the element's children will inherit the attribute.
UPDATE: or "inherit", sounds like a command, little less confusing.
or 'cascade' ?
For your specific use case of photos, Immich is the front runner and a much better experience. Sadly for the general Dropbox replacement I haven't found anything either.
I replaced all my Dropbox uses with SyncThing (and love it). I run an instance on my server at all times and on every client.
Depend on one less third party, you still depend on the DNS Root servers, your ISP / hosting, domain registry, etc.
If you think about it the spirit of the internet is based on collaboration with other parties. If you want no third parties, there's always file: and localhost.
I'm not saying it's great for them to drive, I just doubt there's a way to fix it in these sort of places. My grandma cycles to the small store for most of her groceries everyday, it's only the big store she drives to bi-weekly. Honestly the cycling is probably more dangerous, and there's some elderly in my town who're pushing 100 cycling daily.
