Anyone who supports Israel’s genocide of the Palestinian people is a monster. If that’s you, stop and take a moment to really let that sink in. You’re the worst of the worst. You’re the kind of fascist who would have cheered on the Holocaust.

Good. The sooner people feel the real-world impacts of Trump's policies, the sooner they might start wising up and realizing we need to send him and the rest of the MAGA crowd packing.

The latest proprietary #VSCode extension that no longer works in non-Microsoft builds of the MIT licensed VS Code source code appears to be C and C++ support.
Your regular reminder: every day more of VSCode functionality is proprietary, and increasingly #FOSS hostile.
As of the latest update of Microsoft's C/C++ extension (v1.24.5, released April 3, 2025), use on non-Microsoft products appears to have been blocked. Upon initializing the extension, I get the foll...
Schöner Beitrag über den "goldenen Käfig" von #Microsoft: tagesschau.de/wirtschaft/digit… - wie macht ihr das, nutzt ihr die aktuelle Lage für die Planung von mehr digitaler Souveränität?
Microsoft feiert seinen 50. Geburtstag. Das Unternehmen dominiert den Markt für Büro-Software und breitet sich auch in anderen Bereichen immer weiter aus. Experten warnen vor digitaler Abhängigkeit.
In den 2010er Jahren begann ich, eine öffentliche Einrichtung von MSOffice/ MSWindows auf LibreOffice/ ubuntu Linux umzustellen. Ca. 30 Systeme, mehrere Server, Office-Arbeitsplätze, Audio-Video-Workstations, mobile Radio-Sendeeinheiten
Der Prozess hat einige Jahre gedauert.
Wir haben dort in offenen Bereichen mit (einerseits nicht Technik/ Softwareaffinen und andereseits mit besonders Technik/ Softwareinteressierten) Menschen aller Altersgruppen vom Kleinkind bis zu Senioren gearbeitet. Der Linux-Desktop war damals schon kein Problem mehr...außer bei den besonders Schlauen, die dann sagten, bei Windows geht das aber so...🙄 Auch in einer anderen Einrichtung hab ich seit den 90igern alles auf #OpenSource aufgebaut, von Office über Server bis zu Spezialanwendungen. Einzige Ausnahmen sind bei @komin@bildung.social ein Druckertreiber zum Bedrucken von CD's, der nicht für Linux verfügbar ist und eine Sparkassenanwendung...ansonsten haben wir in den Jahrzehnten viel Lizenzkosten gespart 🙂.
Also, die Entwicklung ist doch schon lange absehbar gewesen. Wenn man jetzt erst damit anfängt...
A Bug Squashing Party is being organised near Leuven, Belgium, on 26th and 27th April, to fix as many bugs as possible to help prepare for the release of the next stable version of Debian (Debian 13 - Trixie) wiki.debian.org/BSP/2025/04/be… #debian #trixie #bsp
Our team explains Thundermail and Thunderbird Pro (what are they? why develop them?), the values behind them, and why the core desktop and mobile apps will never be behind a paywall. Read more and get the facts beneath the hype: blog.thunderbird.net/2025/04/t…
great idea looking forward to using the service! But why use MailChimp for the email waitlist ? I know it's easier but a bit of a disappointment for an open source loving user base don't you think ? It contradicts the principles put forward in the article in my view...
Thundermail? Very good news! But, email is too important to migrate twice. l'd migrate from GMail to Thundermail if there is some guarantee that the service will last for a long time.
I would like to be able to forget the discontinuation of FirefoxOS, Firefox Send, Firefox Notes…
As long as the "pro" offering appears only once upon the "setup new email account" and no random nagging popups bloat the app, it may reduce the amount of people tied to GAFAM bad actors. But let's hope the default option remains "Setup your existing email address..." Why don't use a dropdown like you already do when "offering to share files largen than..." (eg filelink via dav). A feature its only trully optional when there's no nagging or misleading interaction.
An interesting project. Having said that, I only use Thunderbird to archive my e-mails, as the ergonomics and design are really not modern. Perhaps this is one of the reasons why users are switching to well-known platforms. With this project, are you also planning to overhaul the ergonomics and design to keep up with modern tools ?
@paulhullford Thanks for asking! These are two separate products, and right now, there's no timeline for a built-in calendar on the Android app. But a good way to show support is upvoting suggestions like this on Mozilla Connect: connect.mozilla.org/t5/ideas/c…
@CyborgZeta We're so glad to hear that! We'll have posts out soon with more details on the different products, what will be in them, and how they'll work with the mobile apps. We'll share links to them here as they're posted.
Excited to hear about this. More than willing to pay for accounts, assuming it has the following features:
1) Servers hosted in a privacy-respecting country (ie. not the US) - I believe @ryanleesipes has already mentioned it will probably be Germany 2) Bring your own domain support - I believe it's been mentioned this will be a launch feature as well 3) SSO support (SAML/OIDC)
@ggiesen Thanks so much for the thoughtful feedback! Thundermail is still in early stages, and so if you've signed up for the mailing list at thundermail.com/ you're pretty much set! We're planning for some deep dive blog on each of the services, and we'll definitely be sharing those here once they're out.

Kanske inte det viktigaste i sammanhanget men tråkigt att de som gjort namninsamlingen särskrivit "datalagring" i titeln för lagförslaget. Ger tyvärr ett mindre seriöst intryck.

🔒 Jami vs Skype: Welcome to Where Your Privacy Matters 🔒
In a world where online communication is dominated by centralized platforms, #Jami stands out as a privacy-focused alternative. Unlike #Skype, which relies on proprietary servers and collects personal data, #Jami embraces decentralization, putting your autonomy and privacy first.
Want to explore the key differences that make #Jami a unique choice for privacy-conscious users? Read our article:
Doesn't rely on proprietary servers but relies on all participants being online all the time. No offline messages since it's pure peer-to-peer. That what makes it unsuitable for my use cases... unless this has been added in the last few years.
Good news everyone, Movim 0.30 codename Encke ☄️ is finally there! 🥳
This release is actually way bigger than you might think! Movim is bringing group-call to all your devices and still rely 100% on the XMPP standard (it is even compatible with @dino ✨).
In this new version you'll also find a lot of improvements in the UI, a better integration of the Stories and a new way to personalize how Movim looks 🎨 .
