Web Dogma Certified

It's interesting to start to read different capsules on Gemini and stumble upon ongoing philosophical arguments about the Gemini form.

Not gonna lie, it's my favorite thing! ;)

I've never heard of Dogma 95 before, but it definitely strikes me as philosophically-related to some aspects of the small net. At least, the idea of working with constraints to put forward a message. But wow, the constraints are rough!

Applied to the web, I could definitely see something similar. Perhaps if a website adheres to a certain set of principle, it can be part of a Web Dogma network of sites. Solderpunk wrote a webserver [1] that only accepts to serve a subset of html. The website needs to:

• HTML pages need to be 32KiB or smaller
• Contains 3 images max
• HTML tags can't be nested more than 10 levels deep
• audio, applet, canvas, embed, iframe, script and video tags are prohibited
• Third party images, stylesheet and fonts aren't allowed
