Nivenly finally announced that they're retroactively rejecting the #Haidra application. This finally closes a very stressful attempt of us trying to join an ethical org to help us navigate this sector as a new #FOSS project.
https://hachyderm.io/@nivenly/112384063597517427 and https://nivenly.org/blog/2024/04/15/haidra-decision/
This whole endeavour has been severely demotivating for someone who put hundreds of hours developing FOSS. The reaction of the hachyderm community has been extremely toxic.
I'll write a post mortem soon.
The Nivenly Foundation (@nivenly@hachyderm.io)
We've made some decisions regarding Haidra and Pachli as Nivenly projects. First up, Haidra: https://nivenly.org/blog/2024/04/15/haidra-decision/Hachyderm.io
Uso #Thunderbird praticamente da sempre, e negli anni ho donato varie volte
Ma negli ultimi anni devo dire il lavoro che è stato fatto per migliorarlo è senza eguali: merita solo premi ed elogi immensi!
(specialmente l'arrivo di TB sul mobile con #K9)
Per questo ho donato di nuovo oggi una somma maggiore
Chiunque usi Thunderbird e ami il #FOSS, consideri la possibilità di donare per il progetto e renderlo sempre migliore oltre che #LIBERO
It adds a extra button on the update video page, and can do most of what you find in other tools, like visualize audio, basic formatting, and makes it easy to switch language.
The goal is that it should be "good enough" for most who just want to add subtitles/captions, but don't want to spend time finding and downloading dedicated software for this.
Instance administrators can install it via the plugin page.

If, on the other hand, maybe we’d like more folks to contribute to the commons and maybe not even be captured by Silicon Valley how about this radical idea: Fund them so they can live (at least as well) as any mediocre yes-person at a mainstream tech company.

Wäre schon, wenn diese Bekenntnis zu dezentralen Diensten und Open-Source auch in anderen Bereichen Eingang finden würde, der Büro-IT öffentlicher Institutionen insbesondere!

Hi,
das nächste Update steht kurz vor der Veröffentlichung.
Auf technischer Seite wurden die Downloads verbessert. Sowohl Dateien, die einen "ref-Header" brauchen, als auch Blob-Dateien können nun endlich gedownloaded werden.
Ansonsten wurde bei diesem Release besonders an der Benutzeroberfläche gearbeitet. Ein stimmiges Farbschema und vereinfachte Dialoge sorgen für mehr Anwendungsspaß. Wer schon einmal Bildschirmfotos sehen will, kann hier schauen:
https://codeberg.org/Gaukler_Faun/FOSS_Browser/src/branch/master/SCREENSHOTS.md
Ich teste noch ein bisschen und muss mir noch einen Titel für das Update überlegen, dann lass ich es auch die Welt los.😉
Schönen Abend noch!

Recently dived into some more obscure parts of the internet. Here's what I found!
The #geminiprotocol is the middle ground between #gopher and #http. It is very cool and I got my site made and ready in just under an hour.
Its like the internet of old. No ads, no distractions,l and all with the modern comfort of higher speed and a ton of #asciiart.
One downside I've found is a lack of content apart from blogs. I would love if we can get more reading on there!
#foss documentation for example!

🕘 December 2009: Maybe you were upgrading your computer to the new Windows 7, or checking out Ubuntu 9.10. Perhaps you were pouring all your free time into Valve’s ridiculously fun survival shooter Left 4 Dead 2. And maybe, just maybe, you were eagerly anticipating installing Thunderbird 3.0…

Minetest Mod Review: Legboat
This mod adds a boat for the land. The four dynamic legs let you cover a wide range of terrain with great ease, be careful though as the legboat is too heavy to float and will travel on the ground underwater.
