Awesome, thank you! The patch is all good for me.

I agree 100% with that.

While I understand Drew's point and where he comes from, opening external links
in tabs in now an expected behavior for most websites. Personally I am not
willing to compromise on that feature. It's perfectly ok, it just means that
SourceHut sites are not for me. No need to get philosophical here.

That being said, I just lost 2 hours migrating my website from Gitlab to
SourceHut and then trying to understand why my hugo-built website was not

[pages] Privacy policy missing for websites under srht.site 2 years ago

From Thomas Lambert to ~sircmpwn/sr.ht-discuss

The privacy policy of SourceHut does not mention anything regarding
the data collected about visitors of websites hosted under
<username>.srht.site, nor for visitors of websites with a custom domain
but hosted on sourcehut.

I am not a lawyer, but I think the GDPR impose website administrators
to identify all that stuff properly. I assume that, as for the rest
of the service, only minimal data is collected (IP ?) and for a short
period of time. But this is still something that should be addressed
publicly so it can be easier for website admins to be 100% compliant.

In general, the privacy policy does not really differentiate the
logged-in users with an account and the website visitors. So it is
unclear as well in that aspect (from my understanding, IANAL).

man.sr.ht: Footer and sidebar for documentation 2 years ago

From Thomas Lambert to ~sircmpwn/sr.ht-discuss

Hi,

(I am new to SourceHut, so I may be asking about something that is already
possible. If so, I beg your pardon.)

Github/gitlab wiki have the possibility to add a custom footer and sidebar to
their wiki. Both features are very useful when writing a full documentation
that is more than just a few pages.

The sidebar would improve a lot the navigation through the wiki and would be
more convenient than manually adding backlinks on all pages.
Likewise, we like to use a footer for our wikipages to add copyright, licensing
or sponsoring information to all the pages. With SourceHut, it seems that I have
to manually copy this to the bottom of each page (or make a script that will do
