[08:24:01] This global JS only works for me when I'm on Meta itself. On other Wikimedia sites it doesn't seem to run at all. (re @jhsoby: @amire80 including your global.js in my global.js works like it should, so there's nothing wrong with your scripts at least) [08:25:50] @jhsoby , that script is supposed to add ๐ŸŽฏ (target) emojis to every row on Special:AllMessages. Does it work for you? I see it on Meta, but not on any other site. It definitely worked on other sites. [08:58:40] Yeah, i tried several wikis, and it works on all of them for me (re @amire80: @jhsoby , that script is supposed to add ๐ŸŽฏ (target) emojis to every row on Special:AllMessages. Does it work for you? I see it o...) [12:29:07] So why is it broken for me? ๐Ÿ’ข [12:30:20] OMG [12:30:40] I think it's because of Firefox. [12:30:50] It's broken in Firefox, but works in Chrome. [12:31:41] @jhsoby , have you tested it in Chrome? If you have, can you please try the same in Firefox (since you've already set it up for yourself...)? [12:33:51] works for me in firefox v108 (Linux). which version are you on? [12:36:04] Found the problem! [12:36:47] It's because of the ad blocker in Firefox. It also enabled anti-tracking. I guess it prevented loading scripts from different domains. [12:36:58] aah [12:38:30] Really, I should have tested in a different browser or without extension from the start. [12:43:46] How does this differ from https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/tag/technical-tool-request/ ? (re @Eugene233: Hello Everyone! A happy new year to you and yours. [12:43:48] [12:43:49] We recently noticed that there are a lot of tools and request for the develo...) [12:45:02] ...and for finding tools, Toolhub already exists? How does this align? [12:46:36] Ad blockers are pure evil. This reminds me of a case where a Wikimedia Commons image wasn't being shown because of "ad" in its md5 hash start (and thus the path) (re @amire80: It's because of the ad blocker in Firefox. It also enabled anti-tracking. I guess it prevented loading scripts from different do...) [12:47:34] eeh, i don't really agree with that first sentence at all. the whole *ad* *industry* is the pure evil, imo (re @Thecladis: Ad blockers are pure evil. This reminds me of a case where a Wikimedia Commons image wasn't being shown because of "ad" in its m...) [12:51:37] I actually resisted installing an ad blocker for a very long time, because I wanted to be as close as possible to the non-geek experience of the web. But I gave up and installed it after some sites I frequently visit started making my computer slow because of ads. (re @jhsoby: eeh, i don't really agree with that first sentence at all. the whole ad industry is the pure evil, imo) [12:51:41] A lot of ad industry is evil, but not all of it. People do need to learn about new business and entertaiment somehow. And the more those there are now and the more spread out audience is the harder it is to connect them. But some is. But then here go ad blockers which just break sites mostly. (re @jhsoby: eeh, i don't really agree with that first sentence at all. the whole ad ind [12:51:42] ustry is the pure evil, imo) [12:52:07] My choice is not to visit such web-sites :) (re @amire80: I actually resisted installing an ad blocker for a very long time, because I wanted to be as close as possible to the non-geek e...) [12:52:23] That's a good choice when it's possible :) [12:52:54] Well unless you order live saving medication there it is always possible :) [12:56:43] Or, when I want to read news in my language somewhere, _and_ my language is spoken by relatively few people, which causes it to have very few news websites, _all_ of which have awful ads... [12:57:38] I could choose not to read news at all, and a lot of people say that it would be a very good choice for my mental health... but I choose to read them anyway ๐Ÿคท๐Ÿฝโ€โ™‚๏ธ [13:00:22] (That's also why a have a dream, that if I get a hundred million U.S. dollars, I'll donate a part of it to the Wikimedia Foundation on the condition that it develops and deploys Global templates, and with the rest of it, I'll start a news website in my language that would be less awful than all the current ones.) [13:40:06] FYI, for people based in Austria, Wikimedia ร–sterreich is offering scholarships for the Wikimedia Hackathon, you can apply until January 9th: https://lists.wikimedia.org/hyperkitty/list/vereinat-l@lists.wikimedia.org/thread/6S2Q2INNN3UXGMXUA263GEKT65NPYTPT/ [13:55:25] [[n:he:]] (re @amire80: Or, when I want to read news in my language somewhere, and my language is spoken by relatively few people, which causes it to ha...) [13:55:38] No ads that I can see :P [13:56:26] And yeah thus no need to create *another* news website :) [13:56:35] top news story is from June 24, so no actual news either ๐Ÿ˜œ [13:57:02] I might know a way to fix it ๐Ÿ˜
