      1. Ever since css/robinrendle wrote about "Weird Browsers" I've been trying to imagine a browser that helps non-technical folks: - create a basic personal site, not locked to a platform? - wire up indieweb stuff like webmentions/rss? - follow friends? etc css-tricks.com/newsletter/273-weird-browsers/

      What would it take to re-create the personal & social expressiveness of geocities / early myspace, but in the open? I think a lot of people have been working on parts of the puzzle - but it strikes me that browsers could potentially provide the glue that ties it together?

    Part of what makes a platform attractive is that it allows anyone to curate & navigate both a persona & social interactions, all in one place. The platform becomes a niche browser inside the browser. If you want that functionality on the open web, you need to move it up a level.

      Anyway, I don't know how to build a browser, but I want someone to make this, please.
