Stefan Müller :verified:Oh, no! Ich wundere mich gerade, warum alles so schrecklich aussieht unter X11 und habe jetzt .Xresources entdeckt. Das lag da seit der Erfindung von Computern in meinem Home-Verzeichnis rum.Weiß überhaupt noch jemand, was <a href="https://climatejustice.social/tags/Netscape" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Netscape</a> ist?

Sinza ContosoWhile looking into ancient <a href="https://bitbang.social/tags/JavaScript" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#JavaScript</a> from the 1990s, there was a server-side implementation of JavaScript from <a href="https://bitbang.social/tags/Netscape" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Netscape</a> called... <a href="https://bitbang.social/tags/LiveWire" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#LiveWire</a>!As someone with a passing familiarity with <a href="https://bitbang.social/tags/Laravel" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Laravel</a> in 2025, I definitely chuckled when I saw that.<a href="https://bitbang.social/tags/retrocomputing" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#retrocomputing</a>

Richard MacManusIn 1994, the World Wide Web became the default multimedia channel of the Internet. With the launch of Netscape Navigator and early websites like Yahoo! and HotWired, the Web achieved lift-off. <a href="https://cybercultural.com/p/internet-1994/" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" translate="no" target="_blank">https://cybercultural.com/p/internet-1994/</a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/InternetHistory" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#InternetHistory</a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/Netscape" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Netscape</a>

Chris TrottierYeah, <a class="u-url mention" href="https://flipboard.social/@surf" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">@surf</a> makes a lot of sense once you realize <a class="u-url mention" href="https://flipboard.social/@mike" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">@mike</a> used to develop web browsers. In fact, he was the VP of Technology at <a class="hashtag" href="https://atomicpoet.org/tag/netscape" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Netscape</a>. And that’s what <a class="hashtag" href="https://atomicpoet.org/tag/surf" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Surf</a> is: it’s essentially a custom web browser for the social web.

AJ SadauskasLike many back in the '90s, I had assumed that Netscape were the lesser evil in the browser wars.I never thought I'd say this, but thank you Bill Gates for creating Internet Explorer.Sure, it was a buggy malware magnet from the ancient masters of tech monopoly capitalism.But it turns out the guy who ran Netscape is a bigger prick than we realised. In hindsight, trying to put him out of business was completely and totally justified.<a href="https://www.nytimes.com/2023/10/28/opinion/marc-andreessen-manifesto-techno-optimism.html?unlocked_article_code=1.qE4.DBxD.LaVCX9lb2Ptx&smid=nytcore-ios-share&referringSource=articleShare" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" translate="no" target="_blank">https://www.nytimes.com/2023/10/28/opinion/marc-andreessen-manifesto-techno-optimism.html?unlocked_article_code=1.qE4.DBxD.LaVCX9lb2Ptx&smid=nytcore-ios-share&referringSource=articleShare</a><a href="https://social.vivaldi.net/tags/Microsoft" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Microsoft</a> <a href="https://social.vivaldi.net/tags/Netscape" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Netscape</a> <a href="https://social.vivaldi.net/tags/InternetExplorer" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#InternetExplorer</a> <a href="https://social.vivaldi.net/tags/tech" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#tech</a> <a href="https://social.vivaldi.net/tags/IT" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#IT</a> <a href="https://social.vivaldi.net/tags/politics" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#politics</a>

Ecologia Digital"I thought I was going to be a writer; experimenting with <a href="https://mato.social/tags/theWeb" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#theWeb</a> meant that I chose to take the computer science route and learn more about building software. It radically changed the course of my life. So much of what I’ve been able to do, the people I’ve met, the things I’ve experienced, the work I’ve been privileged to take on, has been because of the magic of those first <a href="https://mato.social/tags/Netscape" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Netscape</a> releases."

Linh PhamAfter testing a few things, Netscape 4.x does load the upcoming version of the Wait Wait Stats Page if I disable JavaScript in the browser.The site is also readable going as far back as Netscape 2.Also, it's nice to know that Netscape 4 brought UTF-8 support, which means that Dulcé Sloan's name is rendered correctly.<a href="https://linh.social/tags/Netscape" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Netscape</a>
