I know what you mean, but I think private chat and public posting are quite distinct. They’d destroy a lot more trust if they sell private messages compared to what they did with Tumblr. Especially if they continue to push local bridges, where they won’t be able to read any message (you still have to trust them obviously).
Well that’s some news. If they’re good news we will see. I’m a Beeper user but never heard of Texts (stupid name) before, which seem to share the same misson as Beeper. Texts was purchased by Automattic last year (according to the Beeper blog).
What does that mean? Automattic punches with some weight in the chat space now. In general I don’t like it if big companies buy small products. However Automattic still seems to bet on the Fediverse, so maybe if the teams from Beeper and Texts can work together on a Matrix-based, open source chat application, we could get something really good.
I’ve mixed feelings about this whole thing, some shy optimizm, some less shy pessimism.
Well, time will tell.

Seems like a large link collection for now. I like that the documentation is worked on however, it’s probably Nix’ biggest weakness atm.
Very good video, which first gives an overview of NixOS and what it is and then add many useful tips for using NixOs.
I use dict.cc because they support the context menu action to look up definitions.
Same for Florisboard: press ?123, then 1234.
Side note: Florisboard also allows you to use custom keyboard layouts, which would make it possible to
a) make the numbers keypad accessible with one click from the main layer and b) move the numbers actually to the right side (not in the middle like they’re now).
There’s a catch though: currently, the process is quite technical. An easier way is planned, but it’s hard to say when it will arrive.
I can’t speak for the BOOX Tab Ultra C directly, but I’m interested in opinions on it, because I’m thinking about buying one as well.
I have the BOOX Note Air though. Overall, I really like it. I use it to read books and learning material, do math exercises and occasionally to draw. I love that it’s smart (full Android, download any app) and dumb (slow, grayscale, don’t get distracted easily) at the same time.
Technically you can use it for browsing the web, however I wouldn’t recommend it. It’ too slow if you want to hop between different sites. It’s only comfortable if you access a specific site to read on for a while. I hope the BOOX Tab Ultra C is faster (I mean it should), but if the web is one of your main use cases, I’d rather go for a proper tablet. Even if the ePaper screen is relatively fast, it’s still too slow to be fun. Since you’re already experienced using ePaper screen, I’m confident you can judge that for yourself though.
My motivation to get an upgrade is mainly the Note Air quickly slows down when drawing anything semi-complex or above. I can recommend it for reading, taking notes and (limited) drawing. For anything else, I recommend a tablet instead.
Thank you. I think that was not the issue though. I could fix it by removing an environment variable which told the system I was using sway (XDG_CURRENT_DESKTOP = "sway";).
Maybe a bit patience will do, since Thunderbird is planning to…
a) make an iOS app b) add support for sync to you can sync your settings and account conifgurations between devices
I don’t know of any good solution that works right now however. :-/
Oh, I didn’t know that. Can you point me to some relevant documentation by any chance? Would love to sort that one out.
And for 80$/month you can get 25Gbps!
You can go to settings > customize and turn off pull to refresh if you want.
uBlock Origin would be my number one, but they don’t take donations. So my list would roughly contain:
I’d like to donate to Firefox as well, but Mozilla spends too much for the wrong things and AFAIK it’s not possible to only support Firefox development.
Deleting storage and cache (both) worked for me.
If it doesn’t suit you, that’s fine. But “mostly hyped BS, fails to deliver at every turn” makes it a bit too simple, no?
I’m very happy with my personal instance. I use it for file sync and todo list.
PHP is not as shitty as it used to be. Additionally, it’s very approachable and it runs basicly everywhere.
It seems you’re talking about Lemmy? Or do you actually mean Fediverse apps?
The Verge: Full Interview: Reddit CEO Steve Huffman Isn’t Backing Down
TL;DR He is doubling down without really answering the important questions. Not why the deadline is so short (they’ve been talking about API changes forever), not if there could be a more reasonable pricing (=no) amd he doesn’t acknowlwdge there’s any value for Reddit from 3P apps.
This does not sound sustainable at all.
