I tried to incorporate both as much as I could. Minimally styled (there's less than a KB of styles) and if it is styled then use thick black lines.

Great links

Snagging the good names!

Thanks for the example :)

It's not your servers reputation that's the problem it's mine. Your server is likely rejecting my email.

But I'd have to check the logs.

I actually forgot to mention but if you add /json to your url it will already give you your links.

I am trying to make it difficult for bots to create/edit lynx because spam etc.

I should note it on the site that the confirmation might go to spam.

That's the kind of flattery that gets you on the do-follow list :P

If you can email hello@lynx.boo with the email address you used it would be helpful for me to determine what happened to the email. I'm hosting my own SMTP server so I don't doubt that:

1) I screwed something up (most likely) 2) Your email rejected it because it's some no name ip with no reputation.

It's the plan but I have a bunch of stuff that I hard coded in the final push that I would need to make into variables.

I just looked up https://dev.to/joelbonetr/form-input-validation-without-java... and saw this, I'll look into implementing it via this strategy.

Do you have a thought on how to do the edit page without JS? I am with you I wanted to make it no js, then added a little here and there. I couldn't think of a way to allow someone to add unlimited links in a way that was clean and fast without JS. I guess I could detect if you're not allowing JS and then have an input field so you can select how many you want to have and then pass that as a GET variable.

It's added to the roadmap to investigate more.

I had thought about this a bit, I don't think it's any different (and actually even more secure) than someone putting in your email in a "Lost Password" field. In that case you just have to guess that email is registered on the site, in my case you have to know the email is registered to this specific Lynx.

It could be annoying but it seems an edge case to be abused.

Love the feedback. You're the second person (that I've seen) whose mentioned what a bad user experience it is to fill out everything and then get told that you have an invalid url. I'm trying to use very minimal javascript but this seems like a good place to add a little extra.

Also I need to fix the submit button problem.

Edit: This has all been fixed.

Likely because you're not using http:// / https:// but it's a good note that it should give more information as well as it should redirect back with the error message on top.

Edit: or better yet, a little bit of javascript to catch it first. I'm really trying to use the minimal amount of JS possible.

https://lynx.boo/lynxboo (and I have put one on the index as well)

It likely arrives as spam there too :)

Great point. I have https://lynx.boo/Travis

I had this on the homepage but removed it. I'll add it back, I also want to add some examples of custom CSS so people can copy/paste.

I had thought of that as well as a sitemap.xml placement but part of the fee would bring non-automated verification. Like you could only pay with a real credit card (not virtual) but nothing sounded super great. A do follow is only as good as the others on the site.

I already have the code there to make people do follow. I was just going to make an automated program that saw people who generate traffic and put it into a queue to manually check.

I want to follow up that the thing I think I'm really proud of is just HOW small the pages are. Of course, this is a stupid simple site but also I don't think it's ugly and even the page with the most Javascript and HTML is about 5kb large.

I spent time teaching in Alaska and it made me really appreciate websites with small footprints.

I love this. I don't know when I would need it and before I could look up the website I could just google the status code... but it's simple, it's beautiful, and it's fun. Great work.

The problem getting kids to read at all is that they are prescribed books and said "you need to read this". I hated a lot of the books I had to read in high school and I basically gave up on reading until well into adulthood (though, I do like a good long form article).

Moby Dick isn't an enjoyable book. I'm ABLE to read it in the capacity sense but I'd rather sit and stare at the wall than do it. I read Corey Doctorow and read 3 of his books in 3 days. Is his work literary genius? No. But if you are reading and engaging your imagination who cares?

I think this is pretty common in loan agreements but I would guess it's rare to have this actually exercised because usually the change in circumstances is going to be something that's going to make repayment harder (no one is cancelling the loan because you notified them that you now make way more money). Trying to collect the full loan from someone with less money is going to be tough and if they then put them on a payment plan then they didn't achieve anything.

Plus it isn't great for customer relations and poor people are great clients for a bank who knows they can hit them for more and more fees.
