๐Ÿ‘‰ "The core issue is that open source contributors are not paid fairly. 60% of open-source maintainers are unpaid volunteers, and just 13% make a living as professional project maintainers, according to the 2023 State of the Open Source Maintainer Report."

If you pay close attention, there are some fun additions to the @thunderbird website (thunderbird.net/) to welcome their new mobile app. This is one of our favorites gems (made possible because @Blender is awesome and #OpenSource)

Happy birthday to ARPANET, the forerunner of the modern internet! 53 years ago, the first message was sent over this pioneering network, paving the way for a world of interconnection and innovation.

As a tech enthusiast, I am constantly amazed by the ways the internet has transformed our lives, allowing us to communicate, learn and share ideas across boundaries and borders. From social media to e-commerce, from telemedicine to remote work, the internet has become an essential part of our daily routines, enabling us to connect with others and access a wealth of information at our fingertips.

What? Release of this #opensource software on a proprietary platform first?! (Google).

You can do better than that!

PSA: I ferociously guard my senior developers' code review attention span. If you use "AI" / LLMs / ChatGPT / Copilot to submit Outreachy/GSoC project proposals or merge requests to one of my #FLOSS #opensource projects, I will quickly detect your bullshit, challenge you, and ban you.

This PSA, unfortunately, is brought to you by experience.


For me, @joplinapp@mastodon.social is the most important #ToDo and #wiki tool for my efficient daily #work and #organization.

With the new version, there are some improvements for #accessibility, such as the use of #screenreaders.

I hope #blind people can enjoy this #app.

General #linux #OpenSource question. I've put together my own spin on top of NixOS that I'm calling "nixbook" (a play on chromebook)

The idea is immutable self updating base with flatpaks on top for super basic users.

I want to give it a name so normies can identify what it is, instead of calling it the scary L word.

But I have no idea, am I allowed to do that? Anything legally I have to do, or thing to watch out for not to step on toes of the #NixOS project?


@Tutanota I just realised that all the comments I have added to my contacts over the years, including family-related and medical important information, are gone...

Bugs are becoming more common recently, and this one made me lose data. I'm quite disappointed.

Upscaler 1.4.0 was just released! Upscaler is an app that allows you to upscale and enhance images, be it your photos, digital art, and more.

This release introduces scaling factors, allowing you to upscale between a factor of 2 and 4. The image loading system has been reworked to decrease overall memory consumption. The preview image now has a drop shadow to better make the image distinguishable. Lastly, it fixes a bug where small window sizes made the preview image disappear.

Could someone please write Taylor Otwell a bot that replies with "๐Ÿ’ฉ" to every Pull Request he closes, so that he doesn't have to endure the pitiful and tremendously time-consuming task of having to select one of his reply templates that he can't even be bothered to check if it is even fitting (honestly, it's more likely, he doesn't give a flying fuck given the amount of times this happens)? ๐Ÿคก

It's finally time. After years of deliberation, #Minetest is finally ready to adopt a new identity and prove it has moved beyond its original purpose. We can finally move past the "mining" and the "testing" and focus on making this platform the best it can be.
