The new "Follower Tabs" in Vivaldi 7.9 makes navigating link-heavy pages way easier without losing your attention span.
Hey, I’m
Matt Fantinel.
I’m a web developer trying to figure out this weird thing called the internet. I write about development, the web, games, music, and whatever else I feel like writing about!
I was born and raised in Brazil, living amongst the vineyards of Serra Gaúcha. I built my first website when I was 9, then got sidetracked by video games and started learning development for real when I was 17. I fell in love with building things for the web and now, 12 years later, I feel like I’ve done a bit of everything.
Lately, I’ve been working on taking companies’ online presence to the next level at Useful Group, playing video games and looking for cool things to write about here.
Under Construction!
Things might look a little wonky or keep changing - that’s because this site is still under construction. I’m probably tinkering with something right now.
You're still welcome to look around, though!

2026-03-25Another great article by Josh explaining a neat little trick on how to make the header of a website dynamic… by having it not do anything at all. Don’t worry, it’s quite simple and he explains it way better than I ever could.
Bonus points for not requiring a single line of JavaScript.

One of my favorite series, I loved rewatching it. From the case-of-the-week episodes in the first seasons to the bigger arches in the later seasons, it is overall a fantastic show with very few blunders.
What surprised me this rewatch is how much I liked the last season, which was the worst one for me before. Now I think it’s one of the best!
I’d rank the seasons 1 = 4 > 2 > 8 > 3 > 6 > 5 > 7.

2026-03-11A world map where people can anonymously write about memories they’ve had in specific places. You can write your own or just roam around reading the memories of other people. It’s fun to look around places I know and see what kind of experiences people had there.

Fun little website where you can play the part of an AI answering prompts made by humans. Remember to tell people they’re absolutely right!

A very interesting premise in the beginning, very interesting characters in the middle, and an ending that stuck the landing. What else could you ask for? It doesn’t try to be anything more than what it is: a good movie. Wish more movies were like that.

2026-02-28Miss the feeling if watching TV as a kid? This site allows you to surf channels on a retro TV, and you can even choose the decade you want!
Unfortunately it seems it only has US TV, so I can’t really relate to anything there. Would love a Brazilian version of this!

2026-02-27Fantastic video essay about loneliness, technology, and the loss of our ability to do.
Beware that there’s some (I assume mild?) spoilers of Death Stranding 1 & 2 in there.

There’s a great movie in here but I feel the pacing is really off. Each act takes waaaay too long to get going, and by the time they got there I was tired of it already, and ended up not caring as much. Good ending though.
