Many, many people have asked about error messages when using mastodon.social.

Mastodon.social is far too large. Its massive size causes errors, and threatens the long term safety of the whole Fediverse.

I strongly encourage people on mastodon.social to move their account to another server.

You can find reliable servers on the official site at joinmastodon.org/servers or my own recommended list at fedi.garden

Here's a step-by-step guide for moving: fedi.tips/transferring-your-ma…

Here's a canonical URL for the little info there is about the pending #curl security announcements: github.com/curl/curl/discussio…

For those who think that #OpenSource is primarily about technical quality, may I recommend Uncurled by @bagder? After decades maintaining curl + other projects, his advice keeps circling back to pragmatic tips about working with people.

Turns out the most important skills in the long run are to stay motivated, encourage contributors, + support users. Compared to that, taking care of the code is much more straightforward.


Uncurled – everything I know and learned about running and maintaining Open Source projects for three decades.

I hope you did not miss this work of mine, as I'm quite happy with it.

Convengamos acordar un recordatorio de que debemos ponernos de acuerdo con la mayor brevedad posible de cara a pactar un convenio concertado entre ambas partes.

Señores diputados, la situación es extremadamente grave. Debemos hacer un consenso, para meterlo dentro de un marco. ¡Qué monada! youtube.com/watch?v=kdrzy0-p8p…

China and Brazil made history by completing a full-process, closed-loop transaction using their respective local currencies, bypassing the US dollar. This landmark event, confirmed by the Chinese Embassy in Brazil, could potentially alter the dynamics of international trade, inspiring other countries to explore similar arrangements. 🔥

Máte Nextcloud? A znáte aplikaci Music? Pomocí ní můžete vaši hudební sbírku (nebo sbírku podcastů) přehrávat přímo z Nextcloudu (přes web) nebo publikovat Subsonic protokolem. Na mobilu pak můžete mít třeba přehrávač Ultrasonic (najdete na F-droidu). #opensource #nextcloud

A question to the #Tech bubble: I would like to use #Thunderbird with a bunch of shared calendars over Caldav. I had this issue two years ago and now here it comes again: Thunderbird becomes very slow as soon as all these calendars are added. They contain plenty of events each, many of them are reoccuring and I have tried both with and without offline support and also disabling autorefresh on some of those. I recall that back when I had the issue last, switching the view to show just one calendar at a time would help but to no avail now. Is this something I have to live with in 2023? ###Mozilla #OpenSource

I've been using @snikket_im for the past couple of years with the family and it's been great. Snikket app on mobile and dino on desktop works perfectly. Material you is coming to Conversations 3 (snikket is based off / forked from Conversations). The family server runs on a rpi sat in the kitchen but if you don't want to self host then there is a hosted option. snikket.org/hosting/

@🆃🅸🅼🆃🆃🅼🆈 @Snikket @thomholwerda #XMPP is excelent choice although unfortunatelly #Dino is not keyboard and #screenreader accessible on linux and windows thus it may not suit some people. For majority I think it's awesome. #Conversations is fully accessible and hopefully it'll stay like this in the future.

Hi!
For the past few weeks, I worked on a new #XMPP project: #1999 !
1999 aims to be an XMPP client that is:
1. #free and #opensource
2. cross-platform (mobile and desktop)
3. modern looking, with a uniform look across platforms
4. user-friendly
5. secure

The goal is to have an xmpp client that has the same name, ui and features on every platform, which I believe is what xmpp lacks right now.

I am not a programmer so this is only a UI at the moment!

por lo que estoy aprendiendo, tú puedes hacer una declaración de accesibilidad en la que digas "Este sitio cumple con el RD 1112/2018 a excepción de los siguientes contenidos: todo el sitio web", y ya está, cumples. Tiene narices que el fallo esté precisamente en la funcionalidad principal de la web. Se merecen reclamación, aunque sea porque la última revisión fue antes de la pandemia.

Left-handed guitarists, rejoice! The next version of Fretboard brings support for switching between right-handed and left-handed chord diagrams. Thanks to Terrestrian on GitHub for suggesting this!
