All my clients wanted a carousel, now it's an AI chatbot!
It always starts the same way. The client pulls out their phone mid-meeting, navigates to a competitor's website, and holds the screen up like evidence.
"You see? They have one of those."
A little bubble. Bottom right corner. Blinking...

Test it on https://smolfedi.pollux.casa/ and log to all your fediverse instances (tested on #gotosocial and #mastodon). You can connect to multiple account and switch between them easily.
The Fediverse deserves a dumb graphical client
I love the Fediverse. I have been on it for years, and it remains the only social network where I actually enjoy spending time. No algorithmic feed pushing outrage, no dark patterns, no surveillance capitalism. Just people talking to each other over an open protocol.
But every time I wanted to recommend it to someone, I ran into the same wall: the clients are heavy. Mastodon's web interface ships megabytes of JavaScript. Elk, Phanpy, Ivory, beautiful apps, but they require a modern browser, a fast connection, and a device manufactured in the last five years ...

#SmolFedi v1.0.10 brings some improvements

With #SmolFedi 1.2.0 it is possible to use OOB copy/paste login mode for old browsers.
compatibility with #dilloDillo blocks cookies by default, which prevents sessions from persisting. Allow cookies for your SmolFedi domain:
echo "yourdomain.example ACCEPT" >> ~/.dillo/cookiesrc
Replace yourdomain.example with the hostname of your SmolFedi instance. Restart Dillo after editing the file.
For instances that cannot be reached directly from the Dillo machine (e.g. when the old computer has no modern TLS support), use the copy/paste mode on the login page: check the box, copy the authorization URL shown, open it in a capable browser to get a code, then paste the code back in Dillo.

I'm sure there is a domain that you master. Because you've spent many years learning it, reading about it, thinking about it...
Maybe you don't know, but you are certainly an expert on this subject.
Why won't you share your knowledge with us? Don't you want to write some posts about that? You could open a simple blog, or a wiki? and share it here, on the Fediverse.
I'm sure that many Fedinauts would be happy to read your publications.
