Not sure how this even got to the front page, don't ever do this, you are sending your traffic to someone else who _will_ start phishing attempts once you forget about it.

If you don't want to support ipv4, you should either just host a static page or a text file saying you don't support ipv4, or just don't add an A record.

If you want a frontend to ipv4, just add an A record with your ipv4 address, it's that simple.

I have worked with graduates joining remotely during the pandemic, like most graduates they also lacked the skill to work in a real environment, but we can teach them, it's easy. But during the AI boom, the people who could teach the graduates were let go, leaving only a handful of senior engineers that had to "increase their productivity" while also mentoring the juniors. Guess where people cut corners to keep their job longer?

The main threat to small web is the reachability, I serve Atom and JSON feed, support microformats, microsub, and micropub, syndicate my posts to other platforms all without ads or telemetry. But all that effort means nothing if it doesn't reach the intended user base, it's just shouting at the void.

We can have a small community somewhere, but people who search for niche things should find them -- which used to be search engines after the .com boom and the burst. Now we are back to the small forms again, which is lacking the reach because--- new people can't reach the forms as they can't find them in the first place.

If someone new to the internet find the website, then nothing else matters.

Most of all websites will lose their traffic, some already did.

- People using the search console see the drop

- Product owners scratch their head

- Investors backing out because not having many visitors

- Small bloggers adding more ads because their revenue is dropping

- Sponsors backing out from their blogs because it's loosing more visitors

- Small web crumbling

- People google what is happening

- Google says 'The "small web"—independent blogs, personal forums, and niche websites—is disappearing due to corporate consolidation, aggressive AI-driven search indexing, and high maintenance costs. These factors have pushed independent creators onto walled-garden social media apps, leaving personal websites to suffer from "link rot".'

An acronym is a specific type of abbreviation formed from the initial letters of a phrase and pronounced as a single word. I was being more specific. And the ones you are pointing out are from the header.

> An abbreviation whose expansion is provided the first time the abbreviation appears in the content

Content is the main body of the article (press tab ones you land the page, it will take you to the main content if you don't know what that is), which contains only one Acronym, “SC 3.1.4” → which is a link that take you to a place with its definition. I don't understand what you are fighting over. But I'm not going to reply more to someone who defends people who do not know how to write articles that are more friendly towards the reader.

You meant 5 acronyms, and each are links, which contains their abbreviations. So they do follow the guideline.

No it doesn't, people are against it due to their ties, not because they don't like the service.

The contract with NHS is about 300 mil, public don't want it, most GPs don't want it, so let's drop that next.
