🦿 Lucian Marin What programming language did you use? I replaced GoAccess with my own log parser: github.com/lucianm... - 4x faster.

🦿 Lucian Marin Firefox brand is weak, it's associated with IE era and it's dropping market share like crazy. Mozilla brand got a nice refresh, it's trusted, it's associated with privacy and they got new good products that need to carry Mozilla brand. It should be Mozilla Suite for a new internet age: Mozilla Browser, Mozilla VPN, Mozilla Monitor and so on. This way the browser will be their main product, it will have internal focus and probably gain back the market share.
☝️ Jean-David Moisan That's really interesting! Though I don't really associate Firefox with those other products. Makes the browser seem bloated. I disable all the extras that I can.

🦿 Lucian Marin Mozilla should rename Firefox back to Mozilla while it's not to late.

🦿 Lucian Marin Should I believe GoAccess when it says that Subreply gets ~1500 daily unique visitors?
☝️ Jean-David Moisan It's definitely hard to believe. I guess it's possible if most people lurk without any account. We have around ~50 active people otherwise. Might be bots browsing the site?

🦿 Lucian Marin Let's do it. This weekend I will try to merge threads and replies in a single feed and do the same for profiles. Discover is the most visited page.
☝️ Jean-David Moisan The other pages like trending don't really make sense to me since they barely change over the weeks.

🐓 Mega That's really cool! Are you going to use it for something or is it just for fun? Also, can it go around both boxes at once?
☝️ Jean-David Moisan I'm using it for my game, the controls are like StarCraft or League of Legends where you click somewhere to make your character move there. --- Here is how the algorithm looks when it's searching for a path. gfycat.com/wellgro... This all happens instantly.

🦿 Lucian Marin I created lucianmarin.com/num in a few hours. It displays math expression result on the right for each line. You can assign expressions to variables. Should it be an Electron app?
☝️ Jean-David Moisan Do you have a repo for it on GitHub?

😀 Tom When I work with kids, I'm told that I have patience with them. I don't feel like I'm doing anything out of the ordinary, just treating a kid how they need to be treated. If people go out of their way to praise that quality, then it must be a rare quality. That's scary.
☝️ Jean-David Moisan That's something I notice too in general.

🦿 Lucian Marin You can bring back to life a thread from years ago.
💬 Subreply Summer update: improved stability by upgrading to Ubuntu 20.04 LTS, a compact layout for replies and a new algorithm for trending to bring active threads to surface.
☝️ Jean-David Moisan How are new threads getting brought up? I don't think I can notice a difference.
