Show HN: 10 year challenge with browser history back button (wb.schwiha.de) 19 points by tomschwiha 7y ago ↗ HN
[–] tomschwiha 7y ago ↗ Just some fun website inspired by the 10 year challenge. Source-Code is available on github https://github.com/tomschwiha/web-archive
[–] yholio 7y ago ↗ My experience on Android is that it makes the actual back button on the phone to no longer respond. [–] tomschwiha 7y ago ↗ You have to tap 19 times (years 2000 - 2019) (+the amount of pages you visited) the back button to come actually back.

[–] JeremyBanks 7y ago ↗ Clever but annoying to have clicked on. [–] nchudleigh 7y ago ↗ Yeah agreed, would have saved me a minute if you had built an escape hatch
[–] ninefoxgambit 7y ago ↗ pretty cool. Looked up the static site I built for my mums bookkeeping business over 10 years ago. Solid history. That site just kept on going, no maintenance, no hosting fees.
[–] wodenokoto 7y ago ↗ Is this some joke about breaking the back button? [–] tomschwiha 7y ago ↗ Actually it might. It pushes the years 2000 to 2019 via the History API into the browser history.
