What a fantastic talk! Really helpful and interesting, although I follow the progress of the project quite closely.
Audio quality was much better than last year.
We remain excited about the Digital Markets Act and the push for interoperability: wired.com/story/whatsapp-inter…

Sustainability is a topic I’m interested in, and I got the chance to attend FOSDEM 2024. This seems like a great opportunity to do a quick summary of all the talks linked to sustainability in the Open Source world presented during the event!Manuel Leduc

Hey #gnome and #kde people, since you are at #fosdem could you maybe discuss what would it take to make a common toolkit (Linux toolkit?) that would appeal to both #c and #cpp devs? Basically covering both platforms so we could converge. Maybe #swiftlang? Fork of #Kotlin native? Seems to me we would be better off with people writing mobile apps for Linux desktop, than people writing web apps and electron garbage on desktop.

Version 1.2.0 of the xdg-utils is out!
Please test them! (But don't deploy yet)
Thank you to everyone else who contributed and thanks to Simon for the trust and maintainer work!
We need more eyes on that code!
The xdg-utils are children of their time, shellscripts that by large don’t follow a “modern” scripting style …
… which means that there is a lot of work to catch up on and any changes should be reviewed by more people than they currently are.
In case you want to help:
Just pick something that seems interesting and doable for you and open an issue/merge request.
Things that need to be done:
#freedesktop #xdg #xdgUtils #xdg_utils #linux
And while I’m at it i might also hijack #fosdem for this.
xdg-utils 1.2.0 contains contributions from over 20 people (thankyou) some of the highlights are listed below. better support for Plasma6, Deepin, LXQt partial...GitLab

#ipv6mostly by @Oskar456
fosdem.org/2024/schedule/event…
For me the traditional #IPv6only is good enough on Linux, but...
...the corner cases and DNSSEC.
On the other hand:
konecipv4.cz/en/
I prefer dns64 and removing A-Records. (it solves also some corner cases, but it breaks DNSSEC completely 😬)
