Dear conference organisers,
Please stop hosting your events in Texas (yes, even Austin).
It's become far too dangerous for a lot of people to attend the event, and many of the rest of us will avoid it to support our besieged LGBTQA+ colleagues.

#Texas Bill Would Make Identifying as #Transgender a #Felony Punishable by #Jail The bill, while unlikely to pass, highlights the increasing extremism of legislation targeting trans people, especially in Texas, in recent years. https://www.Mastodon

As promised, here is an interview with @ryanleesipes from #Thunderbird, on the whole #Mozilla and #Firefox terms of use situation.
We talk about why this had to happen, how Thunderbird will handle their own Terms of Use, what's happening at Mozilla, and what's changing.

Great video! I just feel the whole thing has been very poorly communicated. What @ryanleesipes is doing here Mozilla should have been doing from the very beginning. We're a fairly big Firefox redistributor and there has been no communication towards us. And it does make people nervous here.
BTW is there any particular reason why the video is only 720p on PeerTube and 1080p on YouTube?

Are you doing something cool with GTK or the GNOME application development platform? Do you want to talk about it in front of the GNOME community? Then you have until March 16 to submit a talk proposal for GUADEC 2025!

Nominácie na Lemmyvision 2
Ahojte, viem, že nás tu je málo ale pre srandu to môžeme skúsiť 🙂
Je to reakcia na túto správu: jlai.lu/post/16058178
Navrhnite teda nejakú pesničku ktorú by sme poslali na Lemmyvision 2. V skratke:
- Musí byť z minulého alebo tohoto roku (vydaná po 1. januári 2024)
- Nesmie byť medzinárodný hit (toho sa asi báť nemusíme)
A pridám aj subjektíny nápad odomňa:
- myslime na to, že pesničku bude počúvať a hodnotiť medzinárodné publikum. Možno by teda bolo lepšie, aby pesnička nestavala len na silnom texte ale musí to proste zaujať aj bez znalosti slovenského jazyka. Vžime sa do toho, čo si z tej ktorej pesničky vezme Nemec, Švéd či Portugalec

Some good news about #Mastodon, there has been a very significant bit of code added which will automatically fetch all the replies in a thread. This means everyone will be able to see a thread's whole conversation no matter which server they are on! 🥳
The code has just been "merged" which means it should become available in the next update to Mastodon, hopefully within the next few months.
(Those who want the technical details can see the Pull Request at github.com/mastodon/mastodon/p…)
