Three years ago I got my second #GitHub contribution matrix in steel:

daniel.haxx.se/blog/2022/04/09…

Yeps, those are the two i have. Nothing since.


More steel

I didn't expect this, and this year I wasn't asked ahead of time if I wanted to receive this gift. It is however something of a collector's item that I find very enjoyable. I received my GitHub contribution matrix printed in steel.

#Catima 2.34.5 is out!

This is a maintenance release that targets Android 15 and fixes a crash.

The app will look slightly uglier on some devices, due to Google's changes in how drawing over the system and navigation bar works. Sadly, supporting proper edge-to-edge requires extensive rewrites (help very welcome!), so I opted to at least ensure we target Android 15 before any deadlines.

Coming soon to an app store near you.

I just lost access to a substantial amount of issues on one of my #GitHub projects.

I would appreciate if people could help upvote github.com/orgs/community/disc… to get more attention.

GitHub staff won't even tell me how much data they've hidden from me, which is quite discouraging :(

#GitHub #OpenSource #DataLoss

A GitHub Support discussion. The discussion is too long to put in alt-text, but to summarize, "something" happened to an account of someone who reported issues to my project and GitHub has silently hidden all those issues. Support basically told me they would not help restore the data, that this is by design, and that I should open a feature request.

Do not hide issues made by reporters if something happens to their account · community · Discussion #153161

#catima 2.34.4 is out!

This reverts Catima to targetSdk 34 (Android 14) for now, to fix the UI regressions introduced in Catima 2.34.3.

It also includes the fixes in 2.34.3 and a new little feature to sort your cards by the "valid from" date, useful for things like train tickets.

Coming soon to an app store near you!

#Catima 2.34.0 is out!

This release adds support for #Passbook (#pkpass) files, commonly used for event tickets and more!

It also contains some other minor fixes and better handling of image thumbnails (especially transparent ones).

On the end-user side, this release probably doesn't look that different, but it contains some major code refactoring. It is also the first release with #Kotlin code in it.

Beware, there is an ongoing spambot attack in #GitHub issues in several projects were random people suggest "the fix" is to download a random file from mediafire.com. Like this:

@markuswerle @jakob @pluralistic This is how I interpret the situation: #GitHub offers open source programs free access to GitHub actions today exactly as it did in the past. This access is limited in CPU performance and parallelism. It always was. All free CI services do this.

The #curl project was bumped to a fancier account to give us more actions powers: more CPU and more parallelism.

That is them doing us a favor and them supporting us, not the other way around.

#github #curl @Cory Doctorow @Markus Werle @Jakob Borg

@jakob it fits the road #GitHub has taken since it was taken over by #Microsoft. The original promise was to be #OSS friendly. Now that they are the goto place for Open Source they change the rules step by step. This also affects paying users. The SaaS price list exploded a couple of months ago. You now even pay extra for git LFS. I guess, this is the enshittification process @pluralistic is talking about.
