Just found the rudest possible way to interact with an open source project:
1. open an issue
2. put only a link to a commit in a fork hosted somewhere else in the issue description
3. refuse to elaborate
Don't do this. Ever.

Oh, thank goodness not having a fully functional screen reader isn’t a blocker for Fedora 41. We wouldn’t want them to miss their 10th anniversary of shipping an operating system without a fully functional screen reader, after all.

You are using #LibreOffice but don't want to create or modify a complex citation style for your needs?
Thanks to our #GSOC contributor, you can now choose from the vast amount of #CSL styles in JabRef and use them together with LibreOffice.

Zase se nechala slyšet moje milá paní účetní, že bankovní výpisy v událostech #AbraFlexi jsou sice fayn, ale je to málo. Chce tam všechno ...
Oficiálně tedy vyhlašuji nový projekt abraflexi-isds pro synchronizaci datové schránky s událostmi v AbraFlexi.
Termín realizace zatím není určen ale velmi jej může také ovlivnit váš názor v komentářích.
Aplikace bude jak je mým dobrým zvykem zdarma a #OpenSource.
ATTENTION THAI/ENGLISH BILINGUALS AND TRANSLATORS
GNOME Shell's Thai translation is in a very sad state right now, with only ~46% of all strings translated. The worst part is, the first dialogue you see on your first login is not even translated!
BUT YOU CAN HELP!

It just occurred to me that none of the classic #InstantMessaging systems are still running. #ICQ, #AOLInstantMessenger, #YahooMessenger, and #MSNMessenger are all gone. I have lost contact with all my old friends there. I doubt I'll ever hear from them again.
The #OpenSource, #federated competitor to these protocols, #XMPP, remains in operation and has outlived them all. So did #IRC, the protocol that arguably inspired them.
Proprietary software and protocols come and go, but #FOSS endures.

I'm really enjoying #FairEmail app on my phone. It have been the smoothest SMTP/IMAP experience I've had on any operating system. Even Thunderbird is not as smooth and as customizable. I've been actively using it for some months now, and frankly, I'm impressed. The UI design takes few hours to get used to, but after that and with some personalization, it would look as trivial as an email client can get.
It is #OpenSource (GPLv3) btw:
I'm writing a talk for an internal event about gracefully sunsetting your #opensource work.
If you have ever yeeted a project into the sun, ghosted anything you've built online, or been toasted for your splendid transition of a technical challenge to a new solution, I'd love to hear from you.
What have you learned about successfully ending work that you would want me to share (with accreditation)?
The coming EU Cyber Resilience Act will affect all Open Source projects. The Eclipse Foundation has created the Open Regulatory Compliance working group together with a list of other Open Source organisations to jointly develop best current practises and have a continuous dialog with regulatory bodies.
Mikael Barbero will present this important workgroup at the NSSS24!

I've been working on a thing for a few weeks, and I'm hoping there are #Language / #FileFormat / #Markdown nerds and experts on Mastodon who can provide some input and sanity-check.
I looked for an existing markdown extension file format that would allow me to write a document in multiple languages, and I couldn't find anything that fit the bill.
So, I decided to create my own. 🤷♂️

They learned about the #environmental costs of #eWaste and device production.
They presented their work to peers and teachers!
Some even played games🚀

I won a contest @libreoffice held, and I got all this KILLER LibreOffice swag from them.
I've used LibreOffice for so many years, from back in the mid 2000s when it was OpenOffice. It's better than Microsoft Office. It's totally free and open source, and you don't have to be logged in like you do now with Office.
Try it out if you haven't, you won't regret it.

Why I Use LibreOffice Instead of Microsoft 365
LibreOffice is more than just a good substitute; it’s a worthy replacement in its own right.David Delony (MakeUseOf)
