#XMPP #community sprint comes to an end
Developers of #Dino @dino, #Kaidan @kaidan, #Libervia @Goffi, #Monal @Monal, #Prose @prose, #Renga (#HaikuOS) and even #Debian and #ejabberd met in #Berlin to work on e.g. "#XEP-0394: #MessageMarkup", #OMEMO, and A/V calls.
Thanks to the #XSF @xmpp for sponsoring yesterday's dinner and very big thanks to #Wikimedia Deutschland e.V. @wikimediaDE for hosting us! 🙏
We're currently at #Berlin #XMPP sprint organized by @debacle, nice and productive ambiance.
Yesterday we have fixed a bug in #Libervia preventing #Debian packaging, today we're working on #OMEMO 2 interoperability with #Kaidan and later we'll work on A/V calls interoperability with #Dino . There are also people from #Haiku #Renga, from #Prose and from #Monal .

Dear Debian community, Statement on Daniel Pocock The Debian project has successfully taken action to secure its trademarks and interests worldwide, as detailed in our press statement.Debian Project
Better means better for me, right? 🙂 Because you might have totally different criteria.
Relevant for me:
1. Software must be in #Debian — or it does not exist. Debian has at least one Matrix server and multiple clients. But no Deltachat server or clients so far.
2. I use #Jabber/#XMPP for chat. For Matrix, I use a bridge (#slidge git.sr.ht/~nicoco/slidge). For Deltachat, no such bridge exists, AFAIK.
Matrix 2 — 0 Deltachat
Here’s a fun thing that just happened on my #framework16 running #debian and #gnome on #wayland. I woke my laptop up and typed my password. The built in screen of the laptop (on the left) is working. I can type, work, etc. The external monitor shows only 4 letters typed in the password box, and it’s still acting like it’s locked. If I mouse to that screen the pointer disappears. I’ve never had a laptop unlock one screen but not the other.
My power button is set to suspend. So I pressed the power button, let it suspend, then woke it up again. This time it woke up normally.
For more than 20 years, I’ve downloaded files using wget because I could never remember curl options.
It turns out that I was not alone.
@samueloph created a simple wrapper around curl called "wcurl". This is brilliant! And, yes, the name is very intuitive. Best of all, it is already in Debian (and on my system) but it should really be part of the official curl distribution (ping @bagder )

Here is my new GNU/Linux distribution guide about Debian KDE 12, the right GNU/Linux distribution for professional digital painting in 2024! Also about three major problems with GNU/Linux distros that will drive away all professional artists, IMO, and how I got kicked out of the Fedora KDE ecosystem with F40, which imposed Plasma6 and Wayland. I hope it helps other artists here!

Just setup a 2nd hand bought #Lenovo #Thinkpad T480s. Had it running with #Debian. Now runs #Windows 11, #JAWS and #LeaseyLove
The efficiency boost is honestly mind blowing. And that is with so many keystrokes to wrap my head around. Absolutely worth the money and lets me work at least four times as fast as with the previous setups.
Would I have liked to keep on using Linux? Yes but at this point if one is doing more than just browsing the web and reading E-Mails it is very hard to recommend.
For our fellow nerds (you’re reading about Linux on the Fediverse, we see you!), dive into the release notes for more details:

And of course, thank you to the free & open source projects & communities of Linux, Debian, and GNOME for many of the improvements we’re shipping in Endless OS 6. We strongly believe in open source, and would not be able to have the impact we do without standing on the shoulders of the projects we build upon. 🧡

I see some people are really disappointed about Debian packaging a stripped-down version of KeePassXC. But hey, I actually wish there was also a minimal @thunderbird package without integrations of IRC or Matrix etc, just with core email functionality.
Running #Debian #MATE now for a couple of weeks. Not fully switched to it yet but so far really likeing it as a #blind user. Yesterday I opened #LibreOffice Writer and was wondering about a few unlabled buttons in the printer dialogue.
Please dear devs: Every button needs a propper label. That is not just good for accessibility but should be considdered good work in general. And thanks for everyone who thinks and tries to make their work and the work of others accessible.
This #Debian wiki page was what I found that helped me get fingerprint authentication set up on my laptop.
So I contributed something back. I added the "Caveats" section at the bottom. Hopefully this helps somebody else, 🙂
