You need to read it, but most importantly, those who can actually, factually, change the system, before we're broke, living in a tent next to a mountain of #EWaste, need to read it.

I wrote some of this in a reply to another thread, but it's worth making into its own post so it's as loud and clear as can be.
Sun Microsystems used to pay people to work on GNOME accessibility and specifically, the Orca screenreader. Sun wasn't even selling Linux; they were selling Solaris, their own proprietary Unix.
Oracle then bought Sun. They promptly fired the people working on GNOME accessibility. Here's the irony. Oracle has its own Linux distro, Oracle Linux. This is a RHEL derivative with RedHat branding replaced by Oracle branding. There is optional commercial support.
The Wikipedia article about Oracle tells me that Oracle's net income is $10.47 billion in 2024. Oracle's CEO to employee pay ratio is 1205 to 1. The CEO's compensation in 2017 was $108,295,023.
Some of that income definitely comes from Linux. Some of it definitely comes from governments, like the US government. How is it that Oracle couldn't afford to pay people to work on Linux accessibility? How comes it that the US has an Americans with Disabilities Act, while the government still continues to do business with this company that blatantly fucked over blind Linux users?
When we talk about companies strip-mining the free software commons, this is a fine example to use.
Fuck Oracle, fuck Larry Ellison, and fuck capitalism.

#AndroidAppRain at apt.izzysoft.de/fdroid today brings you 10 updated & 1 added apps:
* Scroll Block: take control over your scrolling habits
1 app had to be removed for security reasons: PackageViewer (com.mai.packageviewer) had the full credentials & the keystore file in their Github repo, and it's author responded only with "ignore". We can't ignore this, so it had to be removed (and the leaked signing key blacklisted).
Enjoy your #free #Android #apps with the #IzzyOnDroid repo 
This is a repository of apps to be used with F-Droid. Applications in this repository are official binaries built by the original application developers, taken from their resp. repositories (mostly Github, GitLab, Codeberg).IzzyOnDroid App Repo

in reply to daniel:// stenberg:// • • •hm, I always thought the mutex implementation only differed by platform.
I'm facing a similiar issue with github.com/Gottox/sqsh-tools and wondering if I should provide callback interfaces or instead use pthread mutexes on unix and win32 mutexes on windows.
