Alex Castellani (@alecaddd) is leading the charge on Thunderbird’s modern redesign, and we're thrilled to have him on the team!
But before he discovered the awesomeness of #OpenSource, he had to learn a hard life lesson about pricey, proprietary software...

"The Venn Diagram of the Techbro": perhaps the most succinct summary of the paper.
A _very_ interesting and thorough report on toxicity in #OpenSource communities on #GitHub, including a few suggested avenues for improvements.
Let's all strive to do better.

Somewhat agree, strongly disagree with many conclusions.
Single-tenant #instances are a ruthless attack on our planet.
#Mastodon is conceptually flawed with topical communities expressing themselves mainly via a local #timeline. Lists: poorly implemented. Federated #groups: a.gup.pe hacks
Look at the self-descriptions of any instance focused on a large #community, and ask yourself who could afford to *not* register at the *one* place where the *action* is.

If anyone has time to help the lovely @codeberg folks with improving accessibility, please take a look at this issue:

Codeberg Accessibility
In #389 it was reported that text editors were not accessible yet. Given that such a central piece of the software it not accessible by screen readers (and spell checkers for the matter) yet, it's very likely that there are other UI roadblocks, too.Codeberg.org

📢 📢 📢 Today we publish an Open Letter from developers to the #Linux #community regarding shipping unfinished patches to users.
Shipping unfinished patches harms the user experience and slows down the review process in #FOSS projects to improve the patches.

I thought it would be a cool idea to create a #lemmy #community for #fediverse/ #federation #introductions!
Problem with introduction posts is they tend to get buried after a short while and depending on how many other instances yours may know about others someone's intro may not federate that well (or fast) with the rest of the network.
Plus, some instances like #mastodon only allow 500 characters in a post. Not a lot of room to write an introduction. 🙂
This was one of the use cases and goals I had for creating federated.community to kind of provide an alternative.
Anyway, to kick things off I've posted my own introduction and you're more than welcome to post one as well.
I also thought it would be cool to allow instance admins to post an "introduction" about their Instances too, so new users to the fediverse could find a little more information out about people's instances too.
Thoughts? Is this a good idea? What do you think?
