Great presentation by @polexa at @linuxfoundation #OSSummit talking about relationships between water infrastructure and digital infrastructure. @sovereign.tech has been doing an amazing job of raising the profile of the role #OpenSource place in providing our #DigitalInfrastructure

Google won't allow you to install Android apps whose developers' identity Google hasn't verified. Starting in 2026 in some countries and in 2027 everywhere: androidauthority.com/android-d…
We need to fight Google's new ID requirement for app developers. It isn't like showing ID at the airport. More like showing it at the printing press and only IDed authors are allowed to print books.
What Google doesn't talk about is that they build this ID system to ban developers and their apps.
Unfortunately, developers on Google Play are already used to this system and people have accepted Apple, so I this will be a hard fight. Digital ecosystems being closed "to keep us safe" isn't seen as a bad thing.
People saying "But I use a degoogled custom ROM, so I won't be affected" are missing the point. Apps not on Google Play are already a niche. Banning them on most people's devices is a big issue, even if some people can still escape.
Also the general trend of Google becoming more closed may make even custom ROMs impossible eventually.
In the past, when books were censored and forbidden, people could still print them in their basements and spread them. Everybody who got their hands on one, could read it. This won't be possible anymore in our new digital age.
Google asks what we think of their plans to block Android app installs outside of Google Play (unless the developers let Google verify their identity and pay a fee).
Want to tell them your opinion, just submit this form:

You can learn more about the requirements in the Android developer verification guide. Sign up for early access here.
And for developers who who will not go that road (I guess most of the FOSS devs who have their apps explicitly NOT on PlayStore), there's this library: github.com/woheller69/FreeDroi… to let the folks using their apps know (and hopefully raise more noise).
(I haven't seen it in action yet, but the idea seems sound)
I hope the @EUCommission will take action against Google's abuse of power there, though I wonder if they'd do so in time…
@IzzyOnDroid @EUCommission thanks but not sure if people should a library from JitPack. Might be better to add code in their app directly instead. Also, localization is quite important in this context which would be hard with a library resource.

@theimpulson good points, Aayush. They can however take that as example if they want. For me it was the idea to show this in-app that counted, to raise awareness. @grote @EUCommission
Android published new APIs that seem to confirm that your phone will phone home when you install apps. It will refuse installation when you are offline or developer got blocked by Google: developer.android.com/referenc…
all this amounts to nothing, if I'm cut off your services. My IP address gets banned every month or so, since I've switched to your Legend tier service. I'm currently cut off my e-mail account since last Friday! Can't get any response from your support this time either. To make things worse, it seems that another IP got banned about 30 minutes ago - used in my second office space, across town. Only way for me to access my Tuta mailbox (or even your website) is by using mobile data. I was patient and understanding first two times, but now I'm actually getting upset by this whole situation. There were no such problems with your free tier, not to mention multitude of different service providers, yet as a Legend tier Tuta user i genuinely feel ignored. You can find my tickets easily - my handle here is my e-mail used to contact your support team. Please reach out and let's try to fix this mess.

It's fair to say that the tech industry at the moment is not in a good place. Software engineers tend to be detached, demotivated and unwilling to care much about the work they're doing beyond their paycheck.

Радвам се да обявя първия български starter pack (като в bsky). Това е един списък с активни българи и (засега само една) българка, които можете да следвате, ако общността ви интересува. Повечето постове пак са си на английски, ама друго си е.
Както обикновено започваме с малко, но с големи амбиции. Ако искате и вие да бъдете включени в пакета, пишете под този пост
@tardis то това важи за всички, но в твоя случай (а и в няколко други вече) се оказа, че има друг проблем: "Only Mastodon instances are supported at the moment."
@tardis линкчета - за съжаление не. Но ще се захвана като имам време.
Това, което трбява да се случи е някой да им бръкне в кода на github.com/anze3db/fedidevs/ и да подмени mastodon питонския модул с activitypub модул. Сложното е, че сигурно този последния трябва да се дописва за някои функционалности.
Е да, стана малко сложничко. Няма проблем. Просто има доста от нас, аз бях се регистрирала в един бг сървър, обаче май вече го няма така че да. Преди използвахме Akkoma, обаче се преместихме на GTS, заради ресурсите, че е по-леко. Масто е гаден, взима много ресурс. :D
Ами предимството на нещо, което не е мастодон е че можеш да си сложиш колкото си искаш лимит, ние имаме 5000. Иначе има форк на мастодон с повече лимит, дето можеш да си го правиш както искаш. Има friendica, нещо като Фейсбук, има и Lemmi, нещо като Reddit, второто не съм го пробвала.
Не съм сигурна, че масто поддържа маркдаун, понеже не го ползвам много, макар че имам акаунт изцяло в такъв сървър. Аз само заемам място, не хоствам нищо. :D
@tardis аз пуснах feddit.bg само, за да мога от масто да поствам в него като групи, подобно на a.gup.pe, ако си попадала. И тук съм тагнал една такава група/общност. Групите ме кефят, защото се пише по интереси, а не наред.
Но следващия проблем, с който се сблъсках - няма с кого да си пиша :D
Oops, хаха. Е, поне мога да досаждам, понеже няма много за работене тази седмица. Пък и работя от вкъщи. Не че мога да се добера до столицата. :D Те групите се правят да, малко ги тагваш постоянно, не ми харесва, ама какво да се прави?
Nice keynote from Dirk Hohndel at the @linuxfoundationeu.bsky.social #OSSummit reminding us of the importance of #OpenSource ecosystems. #Open is a value that needs to be given more weight over convenience.

According to MAGA, Dr. Lisa Cook was unqualified anyway.
By "unqualified" they mean that she was a Black woman Spelman Grad, Masters from Oxford, PhD from UC Berkeley, expert in economics, history, and philosophy. But... she's never been a Fox News host! So they must have hired her because "woke!"🤡

Pokud je klíčovým atributem pro poznámkovou aplikaci – jednoduchost bez zbytečných klikátek, a funkcí – markdown formátování, bez dalších zbytečností – zálohování offline, synchronizace lokální složky či rovnou do cloudu – opensource– multi-platformní pro Android, iOS, Mac, Linux, Windows
pak bych tu měl jeden tip Aplikaci Joplin používám už docela dost dlouho a funguje naprosto skvěle. Rozhodně bych ji dal alespoň šanci. K dalším vychytávkám, které jsem si oblíbil a používám jsou například profily, import/export všemožných formátů, nebo pokud budete používat nativní Joplin server pro synchronizaci (ať už selfhosted, nebo hosted u autora), můžete poznámku i veřejně publikovat. Díky @archos@mastodon.arch-linux.cz a Oscloud.cz pak může nasdílet svoji poznámku komukoliv. Možnost zašifrování synchronizovaných poznámek je samozřejmostí.
A pokud jde o hostování Joplin serveru a nechcete zaplatit pár korun autorovy, ale rádi by jste si funkce serveru vyzkoušeli a nemáte možnosti nebo znalosti hostovat vlastní, můžete požádat na Oscloud.cz o účet zdarma. Za mě palec nahoru za to, co dělají a pokud by jste byli spokojeni, bylo by fajn, jim na provoz nějakou tou korunou i přispět.

Bounce, the tool that lets you migrate your social graph between protocols, is now live in Beta! Today, we're launching one direction: ATProto to ActivityPub. We're so excited to get this in people's hands and to see what it means for the future of taking control of our social graphs from platforms.
Here's what you need to know about what we're launching today:

The Tang dynasty poet Han Yu (768–824) wrote a well-known fable about Bole and qianlima.
Only when an era has a man like Po-le are there thousand-li horses. Thousand-li horses are common, but Po-les, on the other hand, are rare. Thus even though there may be famous horses, they only become abused under the hand of the man to whom they are enslaved, and they die in the stables—never having been recognized as thousand-li horses. Thousand-li horses at times consume a whole dan [approximately 60 kg] of grain in one feeding. If the one who feeds them does so without knowing they are capable of a thousand-li, then even though they may have the ability to go so far, they, having not eaten their fill, are lacking in strength, and their talent and beauty are not apparent. Moreover, if one wanted to rank them with regular horses, they would not make the grade. How then could they be asked to have the ability of going a thousand li? They are whipped inappropriately and fed in such a way that they cannot fulfil their innate talents. Yet when they cry out, they cannot be understood. With whip in hand the man approaches them and says, "There are not any good horses in the empire." Alas! Is it that there are really no good horses or is it perhaps that there is no one who really understands horses?](https://fedi.ml/photo/preview/640/698069 "(long text warning)
