I use IATA (3 letters) or ICAO (4 letters) airport codes which make for nice and short host names.

That’s a good one! I’ll probably steal that in the future. I like systems which have a long human name and a shorter code. Very nice.

Firefox is my primary browser at present but definitely has annoyances:

  - unable to close pinned tabs without custom extensions
  - unable to undo close open tabs after closing last window (also solved with extension)
  - pins itself to taskbar and install desktop icon on every install
  - I prefer how downloads' progress is handled in Chrome better
  - Not all settings are synchronized (esp. around privacy), making it very hard to configure computers the same consistently

Favorite extensions:

  - Vimium
  - Undo Close Tab
  - Shortkeys (using it specifically to move tabs around)
  - Aardvark Duex

On your second point the History menu has a Restore Last Session option (or something like that) when you reopen the browser after inadvertently closing a bunch of tabs.

Middle click works and there is also a context menu option to close the tab.

I should've clarified that I meant closing using keyboard shortcuts

This is a good start. As a foodie who loves to cook and software engineer, I strongly dislike the bloated recipe sites and I have my own mini-site where I share my recipes with friends.

Some ideas to consider, based on my experience building my own Hugo-based static recipe site:

  - Search: I decided to use Azure Search because of the flexibility it provides (cost is minimal and covered by my free Visual Studio subscription credits)
  - Images: I use Cloudinary's free plan to upload and deliver images -- very important if you want to deliver performance-optimized experience on multiple devices
  - Full-screen touch mode: directions only, with easy access to ingredients list. Extremely useful, especially when you have your hands covered in flour and are following directions on a tablet.
  - "Tips" section: when technique is important, or flexibility is allowed the directions-only may be insufficient
  - SEO: use standard micro-formats for ingredients, steps and time so the recipes can be easily shared, searched, indexed, etc.
  - add yield, prep time and total time required
  - add ingredient and steps sections: some non-basic recipes benefit tremendously from the added organization (e.g. "dry ingredients", "wet ingredients"
  - usability: UI should be usable and text should be readable from 24-inch distance

+1 for microformats. OP, please take a look at https://microformats.org/wiki/h-recipe and others will be able to make it sharing and integrating with their own software a lot easier.

I used https://schema.org/Recipe for mine over h-recipe because that's what Google had references in https://developers.google.com/search/docs/advanced/structure...

never heard of this before, will def take a look!

great tips thanks!

I dare say that Wirecutter used to be a great resource before NYT bought them... not so much these days, it's mostly a pay-to-play machine. https://www.nytimes.com/wirecutter/our-response-to-nextdesk/

Don't even get me started with Wine Spectator and wines in general... https://freakonomics.com/podcast/season-11-episode-6/

Like other have pointed out trust is difficult to obtain these days for review sites but I hope you persist and have a successful product.
