  • It’s my opinion that the modern web is massively enshittified, and was so long before that term came into play.

    Too much focus on flashy (and often obstructive) presentation, constant reinvention of the wheel, and no regard for the actual information being delivered.

    I mean, you mention “semantic markup” to your average web developer and they just stare at you blankly. They’re like the seagulls from Finding Nemo: DIV? DIV! DIV!

    Useful information structures? Meaningful metadata? Consistent patterns? Forget about it.

    HTML and JavaScript are part of the problem. They provide too much freedom and not nearly enough structure or guidance.

    And even if you put all that aside, JavaScript is an abomination that is entirely unsuited to the purpose it’s being used for. Ask any JS developer. Or look at how many ridiculous frameworks have been slapped over the top of it in a vain attempt to address its inadequacies.

    As the ‘wizard’ in this little tale, I can’t really expand on what the golem has suggested, if self-hosted and open source is what you’re after. They seem like solid suggestions as a starting point.

    My experience is more in the ‘enterprise’ realm, dealing with tools like SharePoint or Oracle Webcenter - neither of which I would recommend. Ever. To anyone. Even if I hate them.

    For my personal IKM needs I’m more focused on notes and relationships between concepts, and less on documents. I’m quite liking Obsidian, which I’ve switched to recently after giving up on Evernote.

    The question was about document management systems that can be run in docker. The LLM response listed four document management systems that can be run in docker.

    Was it a perfect response? No.

    Was it a useful response? Yes.

    Was it a better contribution to the discussion than yours? Lol.

    The anti-AI morons on Lemmy can’t or won’t tell the difference. They think “slop” is just a term for any LLM-generated (or refined) content. There’s no nuance to their thinking at all. They don’t assess the quality of the information provided or how the tool is actually being used.
