(Incidentally, the process of updating web pages on levien.com is to log in to my Linode instance and use vim to edit the static directory. I probably should upgrade to some more modern way, at least use version control, but I do get a warm sense of nostalgia doing it this way.)
Dillo, too, stands for simplicity. A browser that has remained exceptionally bloat-free for 22 years.
I figured that in the light of today's heavyweight browsers, your thoughts on the simplicity of TCP/IP and HTTP/1.0 maybe resonate with many. (I'm an everyday text browser user, so both protocols are still relevant to me.)
Another interesting thing: considering the age of the Internet, it is extremely fun to find thoughtful 20+ year old essays on "computer stuff" that have stood the test of time. I'm a big fan of longer, well-articulated writings from the 90s era (a simplicity geek, I guess), and there are probably a lot of these from that period.
Thanks for writing down these thoughts in 1998. Bookmarked.
