Finally got River, the chat app on @freenetorg, running in @awesomekling's @ladybirdbrowser 🥳
It needed a small CSP bug fixed for pages served from 127.0.0.1 (a local Freenet node). I filed it with a diagnosis: #13256

Somebody built youtube on Freenet, can't believe how well this works (including seeking within videos)!
If you're running freenet.org/ you can try it here: http://127.0.0.1:7509/v1/contract/web/DkG6JqkcpVV2qDe7rdK5zU3WiyPzUny7PeYJEgGDra2r/
Or if you're not (yet) running Freenet try it via our server here: try.freenet.org/v1/contract/…
