I wish there was an open-source license that had an ‘if you are a company with over $<X> revenue, then you owe <Y>% of it to the project’ type of clause.

Wouldn't that mostly fix the problem? Is there such a license available now? #openSource

I am having a consistent problem where I am unable to clone everything from this repository into my local machine. Every time I clone using the command line, none of the documentation shows up. only one folder seems to show up and that appears to be the GitHub folder. Does anyone know what the cause of this could possibly be and how to rectify the issue? github.com/buttondown/docs #OpenSource #Git #GitHub #CLI


🆕 blog! “I'm never going back to Matrix”

I should love Matrix. It is a decentralised, privacy preserving, multi-platform chat tool. Goodbye Slack and your ridiculous free limits. Adiós Discord and your weird gamification.

After two weeks of writing, revising, and trying to make everything as digestible as possible, I finally published "GNOME Calendar: A New Era of Accessibility Achieved in 90 Days", where I explain in detail the steps we took to turn GNOME Calendar from an app that was literally unusable with a keyboard and screen reader to an app that is (finally) accessible to keyboard and screen reader users as of GNOME 49!
