   Easy to use! Awesome final product

   This was the easiest collaborative video I’ve made to date. Normally I struggle (greatly) with whatever free software is out there but even the older generation had no issues getting their videos onto the platform. Their chat support went above and beyond answering about a million questions and the video turned out fantastic. Lots of options for music/theme/customization. My only suggestion at the time was to see a preview of the video.... and now they offer it!!!! Way to go VidDay!

   👍 Pros:    Easy to use|Good price|High quality|Great customer support

   What a simple platform, Amazing!

   👍 Pros:    Fast support|Easy to use|Easy user interface|Great user experience|Professional|Beautiful themes

   👎 Cons:    No custom music

   Amazing experience, top-notch support

   I was extremely happy with our Vidday video. Customer support was very helpful and I was relieved there was not an app to download. We will treasure our video forever. Thank you, Vidday!

• Ode to the M1

  What I'd really like to see with CEF et al, is JS being dropped, in favor of directly controlling the DOM from the host language. Then we could, for example, write a Rust (or Kotlin, Zig, Haskell, etc) desktop application that simply directly manipulated the DOM, and had it rendered by a HTML+CSS layout engine. Folks could then write a React-like framework for that language (to help render & re-render the DOM in... - Source: Hacker News / 9 months ago

  > I hope Electron/CEF die soon, and people get back to building applications that don't consume hundreds of megabytes of RAM to render a hello world. Web technologies are fine, but what we really need is some kind of lightweight browser which allows you to use HTML/CSS/JS, but with far lower memory usage.

• Anselm's Jazz Distributed Infrastructure Framework

  I'm curious if the project will be open-source or do you have plans to go the Awesomium/Ultralight route with both open/closed sources and volume licenses? Or do you plan to offer commercial support services like other open source software? Source: 11 months ago

• Best cross-platform (Win, Mac, Linux) desktop frameworks?

  I’m not tied to any language, but it needs to be able to wrap a c++ library. I started with .NET 7 MAUI - no linux support & very mobile focused. Tried out Electron. Wins on ease and usability, but has massive overhead. (Basic “Hello world” executable compiled to over 200mb) I then discovered Ultralight (https://ultralig.ht/). Big win on size, but was last updated 3 years ago. Source: 11 months ago

• Remember when this was 0% and 70 mb? This is comical.

• Teachers of Winnipeg, what end of year gifts do you actually like?

  A nice souvenir for a teacher is a video montage of photos and short video messages of their students. A few websites — like vidday.com — make it easy to invite parents/students to upload pictures and videos, and with the click of a button, the video montage is put together and ready to share as a surprise with the teacher.
