I love @storyblok.com, I never used a CMS this such a joy to use. Smashing my way through updates to the Guernsey Photography Festival website. It’s actually a pleasurable task.

When we talk about the costs that LLMs impose on society we should not forget the fact that nothing works anymore because everyone is so scared of getting their shit scraped. I can't even use google scholar from my university or starlink because they send too much traffic.

If you thought the departure of Tim Cook would see a new caring "Consent is a human right" Apple, think again. Not-Steve-Either has been in post 10 minutes, and they're forcing 22GB of AI on you. That's the equivalent of 32 shit U2 albums. dbushell.com/2026/09/22/a...

I said no and Apple said yes
The one where Apple decides consent doesn’t matter anymore.

Definitely not a deal breaker for me. I'd be very happy with only having a single preview for responsive images.

Ric Le Poidevin @riclep.dev · 22/09/2026
...times that this might not be possible, or you might have images from many sources you wish to standardise. Would this live in CSS or some shadow-dom preview image we can style?

Ric Le Poidevin @riclep.dev · 22/09/2026
How will this work with srcset or <picture> elements that crop the image differently? I think this is more a problem with <picture>, maybe each <source> needs a preview. Transitions control would be nice. Controlling the preview blur - maybe this belongs actually on the image but there are...

I actually think this would pair well with Otherlands by @tjdhalliday.bsky.social and if you get the UK edition you'll have two books with fabulous planty covers. Read both and you'll have so much more respect for this place we all call home.

This makes me so happy. Over 20 years ago I suggested a feature like this was needed, produced examples and logic as to why it mattered only to be told ‘no, use negative margins instead’ on CSS discussion boards. developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/W...

For CSS #Interop2026 I’d love to see grid rules working everywhere. Saves a lot of awkward ::before and ::after or other hacks.

Why do we need this shit? And 99% of the stuff filmed with it is going to be pointless. Just 'creation' as consumption. Got to record everything. Makes me think of Blind Faith by Ben Elton.

What about proportional to the percentage of tax you should be paying? Pretty sure the majority of us ‘normal’ folks pay everything we should, the likes of the rich though...? I think that’s more balanced as it shows your dedication to being part of the greater society.

I think France technically includes all of these places as administrative regions. Might be wrong though! 😊

One feature I’d love in #CSS is being able to use grid columns as containers for contain queries. Would save a lot of need for wrappers. So often I want to control an element placed in grid but need to wrap it - this then breaks things like stretching the height.

I think this island could actually be my home of Guernsey. This makes me especially happy as we're so often left off maps.

... You helped build this company, but we want to reap the profits without you...
To those leaving Webflow: thank you. You helped shape this company. You built important parts of our platform, served our customers, supported each other, and made Webflow better. Your work here matters. I know a thank you does not make today easier, but I mean it.

My neighbour's cat looks like he's dreaming to be one. Such incredible animals.

A lot of creativity died with when Flash died. Still haven't replaced the ease of animation and interaction it provided.

+1 to overflow detection. Having a way to easily adapt layout such as allowing horizontal scrolling on mobile of panels etc. Sort of tied to this is content wrapping, such as a grid item being pushed to a new row. Being able to style it to span or centre etc.

This shows the stupidity of AI systems in more ways than them just getting lost here. There shouldn’t be a traffic jam with them trying to pass each other. They should communicate and coordinate but they have zero actual awareness or intelligence.

This reminds me of when I searched for help once. There was a result from many years previous, exact same problem - fantastic. Loaded the page and saw it was something I'd posted all those years ago and forgotten about. There were no answers either. 😅

I think it’s this script. I’d try contact them, but the website redirected too fast to get any contact details.

I don’t know if you know anyone at the website linked but I am getting redirected to other websites when clicking the link. Looks like someone injected some malicious code.
