Completely off topic but this website is how it should be done. No JavaScript enabled and I can play the videos and see the text and images. Well done.

Well I can’t play any of the media, perhaps JavaScript isn’t that bad?

That is odd. It works on Edge and Firefox for me. They also give you the links to download each one to play it local.

fosdem and emacsconf were very lean in many aspects, website, video streaming.. and even Q&A (bigbluebutton?) they made a beautiful setup

Ah, a grand achievement. Looking good without using any of the fancy stuff people use nowadays and doesn't feel slow.

Two projects that may be of interest, related to this topic:

- Rune (https://github.com/CeleritasCelery/rune) - A re-implementation of Emacs but in Rust (like Remacs, but actively developed)

- Pimacs (https://github.com/federicotdn/pimacs) - Same, but using Go (created by me, but developed in a very slow pace)
