Thanks to deepseek (based on chatgpt code lol), I was able to fix the hyperlink button in headings. If you remember they existed for a time but didn’t show up properly, so we removed them. This is now all fixed.
When you click on this icon, you’re taken to the section and it inputs it in your adress bar for quick sharing (it doesn’t hijack your clipboard automatically because I hate when apps do that).
AND, we were also able to fix the table of content scrolling at the same time. You might not remember this OG bug where the first time you clicked on a TOC heading you wouldn’t be taken there, you’d need to click a second time. This has been fixed at the same time.
I’m interested if you think this is useful and you used the hyperlink icons the first time around. I wanted to incorporate them on ProleWiki because it’s something I do use (especially in book clubs).
Also reminder that we’re still doing our 2025 reader survey, it takes 5 minutes to complete and we need LOTS of responses so please fill it if you haven’t already: https://framaforms.org/prolewiki-reader-survey-jan-2025-1736844728
Your data is safe (we don’t even see any metadata) and will be used to improve the website for the readers, not to sell you shit you don’t need.
smh big prolewiki harvesting our data
By replying, you have fallen into my trap and I now get to explain everything about how we design for ProleWiki.
To be honest we do use Matomo to look at website usage analytics (it’s self-hosted so only we have access to that data). It’s very freeing as the ones who process that data to be using it solely to improve the website though. It honestly feels great. We have nothing to sell and nothing that makes money (aside from the one fundraiser that pretty much secured our hosting for almost ever). Therefore we can concentrate all our efforts into making the website better to serve the readers. There’s some stuff we’d like to do but can’t really for several different reasons, but all in all it’s great to be able to approach a problem from the perspective of “how do we fix this for good” and not “how do we fix this just enough that people won’t leave the website so we can sell them the subscription package”. I never have to worry about how to market a design decision, I can just add the feature and done.
It’s like… if we see a page that suddenly gets a lot of traffic, we don’t think “quick, increase the CPM on ads and paywall the page!” it’s more… what is it missing that people need to know? Can we bring them the information differently, in a way that makes more visual sense? Can we build pages around this theme that they can check out as well?
It’s as anti-capitalist as it gets in these circumstances. This is what work will be like in socialism.
no my biggest enemy, the socialist wall of text
