whoa! thanks a lot! that’s my mistake.

thanks for the awesome info, I should’ve at least check the repo of the individual projects first (only did so with Forgejo).

I totally agree with you, and do think that it is possible to have positive and harmless CLAs. though I do think we should always take a step back and not assume that a project’s CLA will be in favor of our copyright, with the case being more the exception than the norm, unfortunately.

in the end, I will always be happy that a copyright holder wants to be able to reliably make money with copyleft software, but I can never really face a CLA without at least initial hostility anymore. you may say I have prejudice against CLAs lol

always a pleasure to see big projects going full copyleft amidst the recent influx of projects sadly going source-available

this is the main reason not to sign a CLA (edit: both the aforementioned projects seem to adopt CLAs, though it seems that they aren’t hostile and are especially pro-copyleft. see this amazing correction by @[email protected] for context). you should not let a third-party use your copyright to restrict user freedom in the future because they swear “they ❤️ open source” now, and would never use your code to only their own benefit.

Sou brasileiro, e apoio muito o estudo do português. É uma língua rica, complexa e linda. Para mim, não há obras literárias iguais aos clássicos brasileiros e portugueses, especialmente quanto ao belíssimo uso da língua portuguesa.

Amo Machado de Assis e recomendo muito as suas obras que, além de mostrarem a beleza do português, continuam intrigantes e divertidas. Também recomendo as obras de Fernando Pessoa, caso opte por um escritor português.

well, if I have an object on the heap and I want a lot of things to use it at the same time, a shared_ptr is the first thing I reach for. If I have an object on the heap and I want to enforce that no one else but the current scope can use it, I always reach for a unique_ptr. Of course, I know you know all of this, you have used it almost daily for 7 years.

In my vision, I could use a raw pointer, but I would have to worry about the lifetime of every object that uses it and make sure that it is safe. I would rather be safe that those bugs probably won’t happen, and focus my thinking time on fixing other bugs. Not to mention that when using raw pointers the code might get more confusing, when I rather explicitly specify what I want the object lifetime to be just by using a smart pointer.

Of course, I don’t really care how you code your stuff, if you are comfortable in it. Though I am interested in your point of view in this. I don’t think I’ve come across many people that actually prefer using raw pointer on modern C++.

labor unions based as always!!! brasil!! 🇧🇷

I’m glad that they chose the AGPL when open-sourcing their server. I don’t see that many companies, especially ones offering a “product”, open-sourcing their work with a copyleft license.

oh yeah, I heard about the already forked projects before, certainly awesome that people already have that option. I do use Aniyomi, and it’s pretty damn good.

For some reason I’ve never felt like I needed extra features that the main project didn’t have, so I’ve never looked out for forks. But looking at some of the forks right now they seem pretty good as well and do have features that would be super useful to me. Certainly will try it out.

FOSS is so amazing.

i’m so fucking sad that a shitty¹ company was able to bully a 100% legal piece of FOSS to shut down.

It is THE best app for reading manga, and it single-handedly started my love and (healthy) addiction to reading manga lol. It’s also one of the best examples on how a FOSS model is superior to any competitive proprietary one.

I hope so much luck to the devs and every contributor. Their work through all these years is immeasurable. Makes me regret a little for not trying to contribute to the community with some code at a time I was wanting to. Thanks for all the hours of fun reading manga. I’m sure at this very moment people are already organizing a fork to live on Tachiyomi’s legacy, as is the spirit of FOSS.

weird. for me, the “hard engine and framework stuff” is the fun part, while the content creation is not boring, but just very hard for me :P

Celeste screenshots, because every scenario in that game is beautiful. And it’s one of my favorite games of all time.

Here is my favorite one:

Torch Browser is not open source, and it still is based on chromium. It’s the worst browser combination possible.

Falkon is pretty cool! I prefer using qutebrowser if it’s gonna use QtWebEngine anyway. It is slower and less featureful than the main browsers, though. If you don’t mind it, I’d say go for it!

I didn’t know about Dot Browser, but it looks… unfinished? It’s based on Firefox, so that’s cool. But it seems someone would be better off just using something like LibreWolf (or Tor if you actually want some privacy).

test my own PWA of websites I’m developing

changing browsers or keeping both open breaks the workflow and sucks. and it’s pretty damn slow for me too

BookWyrm has a barcode scanner on its UI, which redirects you into the scanned book title (if it’s registered in the “databases” BookWyrm pulls from)

- yes*

- yes, that is completely your choice

- yes, though you could take a look at “wake on LAN”

- yes, as much as your server can handle

- I don’t think so

* it’s totally possible setting up a server on Windows (depending on which version of Windows), but I must recommend using Linux, as that would be way easier to setup and maintain, and probably will be faster overall

that seems a lot like my situation (though I’m just a student :P). awesome to see someone trying to self-host FOSS. best of luck to you!
