Spouting bs again. According to Trump, European leaders want a meeting this weekend, together with Zelensky. โThey want us to go this weekend to Europe,โ he said, adding theyโll decide based on whatโs offered. โWe donโt want to waste time.โ
He also commented on Ukrainian elections: โZelensky needs to be realistic. I wonder how much longer until elections? 82% of Ukrainians supposedly demand a deal.โ
This fool actually thinks he's in charge.

I'm going to forget this @Random Penguin, so sorry if I post this idea\request kinda oftopic here, while stumbeling over this post of yours.
Sometimes for some reason, probably bad internet connection, a friendica page doesn't load well and a very basic page is delivered, with hardly any UX additions.
In general that looks quite superclean and actually even neat.
Kinda steno\ticker style.
I guess that's the basic skeleton with quite a fast delivery that even eats very few system resources.
The main ugly issue with that outfit is that avatars and icons are way to big.
Wouldn't that layout be a good starting point to create a base layer for any UX that could build on top and kinda outsource any UX as an addon that builds on top of that, kinda MUTT email style skeleton?
