Western observers often express cynicism towards China’s self-proclaimed “Whole-Process People’s Democracy” without fully grasping its distinct characteristics and underlying principles. While Western liberal democracies prioritize periodic elections, China argues this approach is inherently limited, susceptible to corruption, and ultimately fails to truly represent the people’s will.
@tink will be attending #DevFestNantes to share her talk: “The Land That Time to Interactive Forgot.” 🌐
She’ll explore how Time to Interactive (TTI) impacts web performance, accessibility, and user experience, offering insights into how we can all make the web faster and more inclusive.
Thunderbird for Android 8.0b2 has landed on the Google Play Store and on our Github Releases page. We've removed the existing folder class system, and would love feedback on this change from new and existing users. For more information on the release, see the release notes on GitHub:
Wait, what? I use the class functionality all the time. What have you replaced it with? In particular, I encounter these particular user stories regularly: * I want most of my folders to be hidden in most menus and contexts most of the time. * I need to be able to easily unhide the hidden folders when I need to access one that I rarely use. If you've removed the functionality that enables these without replacing it with something comparable, that's a huge functional regression.
thanks for deactivating the aggressive telemetry - it is always better to ask the users! IMHO this belongs also to the "Free" in FOSS projects - the freedom to choose if I want to share some data with you - no matter what my reasons are. Thanks
Will my beta version automatically update to the full release version through the updates from Google Play Store, or will I have to install the full release version, and remove the beta from my devices?
@houdave You'll need to install the full release version once it is out, and you can remove the beta if you would like - or keep it for future testing!
I don't like that I have to select the account and it cycles through the accounts instead of giving me a dropdown to select the account like it did in K9.
Expanding the account list to show the icons doesn't help much since I have multiple accounts on the same domain and the only identifying difference is the colour. Is there a way to customize this?
@derekmceachern Thanks for your feedback! There's also been considerable discussion of accessing the different accounts on the beta mailing list. As far as customizing this, I'll try to find an answer!
@ryan_harg Hi! This has been a requested enhancement. No idea yet on any possible timeline, but this would be the best place to follow any development: github.com/thunderbird/thunder…
@T313C0mun1s7 This will need to be a manual switch over, because of Google Play Store policies. Current beta testers have been testing the switch from the most recent K-9 Mail Beta to the Thunderbird for Android beta, which is in the blog post: blog.thunderbird.net/2024/09/h…
And it means that 275 of the apps at #IzzyOnDroid are now set up for #reproducibleBuilds – or in relative numbers, 22.9% Hoping for the "forth egg" (25%) though it's quite a way to go, still 😊
I'm sure music isn't the only kind of specialty store that has a hard time sourcing products with french labelling. do they really want all these kinds of stores to shut down in Quebec, so that people have to sneak across to Ontario to buy these things?
In my last Italian blog post talking about #Google I suggested your service @Tutanota a service I purchased proudly 🙂 I'm planning to write a specific post in English to talk about Tuta.
Wow. To vypadá na hodně zajímavou změnu ve školství.

We are celebrating with our supporters #AdaLovelace Day on 8 October with the world premiere of the animated movie 'Ada & Zangemann: A Tale of Software, Skateboards, and Raspberry Ice Cream! 💥
Case in point: there's no way to build a backdoor that only the "good guys" can use.
When the entire technical community says that the EU's ChatControl legislation + similar pose serious cybersecurity threats, we're not exaggerating for effect.
Is there any chance we can encourage you to trend #NVIDIA when that's the company you mean, please? I know what their NASDAQ handle is, but #NVDA is much more widely known as the name of the screen reader we make and the #NVDA hashtag is very widely used for the screen reader. It will save both our communities polluting each other's feeds. If you'd like to find out more about the screen reader, our website is nvaccess.org/ - Thank you!
Ugly laws will be enforced in Louisville. Medical masks will be allowed at “police discretion”.
Police chief says: “We do have to look at behavior of person, what they're doing at time, those kinds of things."
I have a disability that makes me LOOK nervous. I “appear” like I could be doing something wrong. As a result these bans terrify me.
Disabled people have been begging others to mask for years because we were afraid of this exact outcome.
Failure to normalize masking means those of us who NEED to wear them are seen as outliers. Deviants. Possibly criminals. There’s a target on our back.
Medical exemptions are not the answer - they leave too many people behind.
Everyone should have the right to protect themselves from a deadly & disabling virus. Whether already disabled or not.
Banning masks and then saying that the police will determine who is “legit” in wearing one based on their overall behaviour? Its terrifying.
This is exactly HOW profiling occurs. These bans will disproportionately impact marginalized individuals and people of colour.
They could also impact someone with a condition like mine. I’m immune compromised and high risk for Covid complications - so I ALWAYS wear a fitted respirator when I’m outside my home.
I also have dysautonomia - a literal malfunctioning of my autonomic nervous system.
If I’m upright - I “look” nervous. I’m sweaty, shaky, twitchy and sometimes wobbling. I’ve been accused of being drunk in public on MANY occasions.
It’s not my fault - Dysautonomia means I can’t regulate my blood pressure, heart rate, sweating & even pupil dilation.
The things that cops are trained to look for and consider “suspicious” are all symptoms of my disease.
In the past - the worst thing I had to worry about was being accused of public drunkenness. Even THAT was scary for me.
Mask bans mean I could be arrested and charged with a crime. Just for trying to keep myself & others safe.
I tell this story to encourage others to speak up against mask bans. To mask up in solidarity and help us normalize them so they will be harder to ban.
To encourage people to stop assuming if you have a “legitimate medical reason” you won’t have to worry. We DO worry.
We need less judgement, assumptions and gaslighting and more allies. These laws are dangerous. They will lead to more death, disability AND division.
Many of us have difficulty convincing HCWs of our illnesses - what hope do we have with police?
Please - if you CAN mask - now is the time. You don’t have to wait for a mandate or permission. You can choose to say “enough is enough” & be part of the solution. Break chains of transmission. Protect the vulnerable. Don’t allow government to decide who is & isn’t expendable.
We all have power and agency and can choose to do the right thing. We don’t have to sit idly by and accept repeated covid infections & exclusion of disabled people from public life.
Let’s work together and stop these bans before it’s too late.
Hice nueva tira cómica. Que la disfruten #mastoart #comic #webcomic no se donde irlas subiendo constantemente y recibir visibilidad. Cada vez que pienso en subirla en Instagram también me da asco de conciencia y que realmente ya no quiero subir nada ahí.

Breaking: the Judge in the Epic v Google case has just issued his final ruling, which states that Google must open up its Play Store catalog to 3P app stores and distribute those 3P app stores within Google Play.
The judge also ruled that Google can't require Google Play app billing, stop developers from telling users about other ways to pay, stop developers from linking to alternative distribution methods, and more.
Nie, to znamená, že bude kopec alternatívnych obchodov, kde sa budú ponúkať hry a aplikácie. Ak to teda správne chápem Teda takých ktoré budú môcť ponúkať iné ceny a budú taktiež na tom nejakou podobou ryžovať.
Thanks to the help of Alexey, this was finally achieved:
I can fit this into my day a lot better than the long ones. @
, do it today and do not miss this event!
