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.@leadore ah dang, sorry :( must be the CSS, apologies

@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. -

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 Awesome!

@catraxx why thank you! :)

@lashman This is probably the fault of my Theme but the icon is rather cute

@catraxx yes, definitely fault of the theme, hahaha :P but thank you :D hope everything else works fine, though

@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)

@catraxx yeah, i thought it might be a good idea, haha

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

@lashman @leadore It seems to be the JS, not the CSS directly? If I load the site with NoScript or uBO in strict mode which blocks all JS scripts, the page is fluid and uses 63MB of RAM, but with JS enabled it does make things worse
I'm not sure what causes that, probably the 3D animated panes when you hover over them. But I found a different issue:
Consider modifying the HERO - orchestrated entrance section in /driftwood/script.js for the page, because if I have esm.sh blocked, it'll set everything to opacity 0, add a listener to whatever framer-motion or motion includes
I think it's the !animate or some other check you've put in place, because with esm.sh blocked it still logs to the console that motion.dev was loaded successfully, despite it being blocked. It's loading motion/*esm from JSdelivr, but there are other components that appear to be loaded via esm.sh, like framer-motion, motion-utils and motion-dom.
It also loads motion/index.mjs from unpkg as a fallback if esm.sh and jsdeliver are blocked 😄

@decathorpe it's what i've always been using for pretty much everything i do
@lashman @decathorpe Check The Unlicense. It’s like CC0 (public domain) but for code. It’s what the popular yt-dlp (and youtube-dl before it) uses.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Unlicense
Check the “See also” at the bottom for other popular alternatives.

New app. Outlay - a personal finance app for Linux. Track what you spend, set budgets, manage subscriptions, and see where your money goes. Everything lives in one file on your machine. No accounts, no cloud, no telemetry.
It's a native GTK 4 app so it fits right in on a GNOME desktop. I put a lot of work into making it look and feel nice.
Free, CC0 public domain. No subscription to track your subscriptions.
