Make Diaspora work with LibreJS

Paul HillPaul Hill Mon 21 Apr 2014 1:42AMPublicSeen by 97

With LibreJS installed visiting diaspora does not present the user with much, the stream is missing and all the items on the black bar are missing, it can be fixed by following this guide (I think) http://www.gnu.org/software/librejs/free-your-javascript.html

Should Diaspora be compatible with LibreJS plugin?

proposal by Paul Hill Closed Wed 28 May 2014 2:09AM

Currently when a user has LibreJS install much of the page on diaspora does not load, this can be fixed by following this guide: http://www.gnu.org/software/librejs/free-your-javascript.html

Let's show to everyone that our code is free as in freedom :)

I think being compatible with libreJS is somewhat important for a fully free social network, because it's indicating that our javascript is not a "javascript trap" nor nonfree javascript, but free code as in freedom :D

Shouldn't this be discussed first? I have no idea what the pros and cons are, but the must be some.

Changed the close date by another month. Pros: causes issues for librejs users to go away, no reason the issue should be there AFAIK as all code is open. Cons: is it worth the effort? Are the number of users with the plugin negligible?

Not sure if this really needs to be voted on - if someone does the implementation then I'm sure no one would object?

In fact, there is a pull here but it hasn't been finished yet :)

Yep, no need to vote. Find a sane implementation that integrates well into rails asset pipeline and no one will object.

@nicolas8 seems support for LibreJS headers was merged in. No idea how it works myself, but if some parts of the JS are not LibreJS compliant, feel free to identify those and try to come up with a solution.
