Serenum: a weather service that really respects your privacy (lemmy.ml)

4 years ago, I posted about the weather service I did build. Back then, Serenum used OpenWeatherMap, but after a while they changed their API and I didn't have any strength to make the changes in Serenum API.

Earlier this year, I started with the new version of Serenum without Serenum API (too much work, too little time), now using Open-Meteo. I released the first version last week as a beta and now I find Serenum enough finished to share it here on Lemmy.

Still in beta, though, since stuff needs to be improved. But everything(?) works as it should.

I tried to recreate the issue you mentioned (settings' not applying) and I can't. The settings are being saved inside the URL. Change the settings again and see if you can re-produce the issue. If you can, check the URL. Are the values after /settings: the same as what you choose in the settings?

    Aha, it works now. I'm not certain but I think I might not have noticed before that you have to click "save" to make the settings work. On my screen that involves scrolling down. You might move the "save" button to the top of the settings screen to make it more obvious, and possibly call it "apply" rather than "save".

    I do remember that the new settings persisted in the settings screen after switching to and from the main screen, and that was part of the puzzle.

    Alright :) I will try make the "Save" button sticky so it will always show and follows inside the settings while you scroll. Serenum doesn't use any JavaScript, only HTML, CSS, and PHP.

    I think it's enough to just put it at the top to make sure it is seen. It doesn't have to be sticky. I'm glad there is no JS. It would be nice to not depend much on CSS, so that text-only browsers like Lynx will work. Though the little icons are an issue too.

    That is true. But we'll see what happens at the end :)

    I will install Lynx some day and try to make Serenum compatible with text-only browsers.

    Though the little icons are an issue too.

    I can add more icons :) If you have a good source of icons that are FOSS and that supports all kind of stuff (for an example air quality like pollen), please share.
