Hi, author here. Thank you everyone for the feedback. It's clear that I launched this far too soon. I'll work on the pain points you all noted, and come back in a few months.

Thank you for launching early. Definitely launch often. 10,000 iterations. One down. 9,999 more to go.

Does the paint app work for anyone? https://90s.dev/os/#sys/apps/paint.app.js I tried in both Firefox and Chrome on Linux and picking colors and clicking I can't draw anything. No logs in the console that alert something is wrong. On a different note I think you've captured the 90s really well. I had a moment of realization that the 90s really were like this. On first look I was thinking this was more 70s/80s termina…

I'm not sure it's implemented yet. If you click the "hash" button in the upper-left of the window, you can click "View Source". From there you can see it's just a mocked up UI, the scroll area just draws pinstripes.

Nice, does it work on Firefox?

It doesn't on Firefox ESR.

Earlier quoted context omitted.

Thanks for letting me know. Hmm, I don't know what Floorp is doing differently. I'd need more of a stacktrace. It works in regular Firefox though. Feel free to paste a stacktrace and/or stacktrace screenshot on the issues page and I'll take a look.

I have the same problem as OP on regular Firefox ESR.
