Vesper v1.1.0 - accessibility and light theme update. Full keyboard nav, ARIA landmarks, focus traps in modals, skip link, aria-live status messages, reduced motion support, and AAA contrast across both the new light and dark themes.
Also added content zoom and width spinners as non-gesture alternatives to scroll shortcuts.
It's a distraction-free Markdown reader for Windows. Free, portable, CC0.
Made a new thing. Driftwood - an AppImage manager for Linux. Browse 2,000+ apps, one-click install, updates, vulnerability scanning, and desktop menu integration. No root, no accounts, no telemetry.
Built with Rust and GTK 4, runs in userspace, ships as an AppImage itself. Free, CC0 public domain, WCAG 2.2 AAA accessible.
If you use AppImages and want something nicer than the terminal for managing them, give it a look.

@lashman out of curiosity, why did you choose CC0 license for these projects? the Creative Commons family of licenses are more targeted at "content" and not code.
CC0-1.0 specifically is not considered "Free and Open Source" by some lawyers due to some of its limitations (for example, it is not an allowed license for "code" in Fedora Linux, it is only allowed for "content")

Sounds nice but what is that website doing?! It cranks my CPU way up, uses 200MB ram, and makes my fan run like crazy. So I didn't keep the site open long enough to read it. If the website is like that what would the app do to my computer, Not going to install it to find out. -

@lashman Just feels kind of sus, "here's a great app, CC0 license" and the website acts like it's running a ton of code behind the scenes.

@leadore no, not at all, just a tonne of CSS
but you can check out the gitea page for it directly - should probably fare better: https://git.lashman.live/lashman/driftwood
sorry again

Thanks, that's better! And it has all the info right there--very nice documentation there! So much easier to read than the website. -

@lashman It seems great otherwise! What exactly does Scanning for appimages do, though?

@catraxx oh, it just searches for .appimage files in the directories you configure in settings (applications and downloads by default, but you can add/remove)

@lashman It absolutely is. Most Appimage solutions are rather half hearted, this seems great.
