You might want to borrow some changes from my commit (which is still work in progress) 😅

I added several things in it, namely:

• Dynamic datestamp calculation
• Display URI as it was done originally (pathname only)
• Hotkey for going to homepage (not sure about it, especially for mobile clients)

This is funny, but I think it would be better if it were also a bit more functional,
at least including a link back to our homepage,
and maybe including 404 somewhere?

Quick Paint mock-up of my idea on how to restore the old 404 page while keeping the website functional.
What do you think?

Monitor SVG is taken from https://freesvg.org/v-stand-computer-monitor-vector-clip-art and can be freely used without attribution (CC0 license).
You can find a lot other fitting SVGs on that site if you search for "monitor".

@binarymaster @Extravert-ir Any opinions?

[binarymaster]

@ColinFinck I like the idea about monitor, but maybe this one :)

I'm for Colin version :)

Looks cool. But probably we can mix both ideas?
Keeping the "Header" and "Footer" so it is perfectly functional and adding inside the "container-fluid" the BSOD (full width and height)? I would add a "bolder" to the STOP code Error so "404" gets more noticeable.

Fullscreen bsod page is funnier.

I would strip that part with the "drop an email to". Maybe we should link to mattermost instead.
