I'll keep saying it, because it keeps coming up. If you're working in the FreeDesktop, Linux, or Flatpak spaces, you need to understand this, even if you don't personally care about gaming or Steam Deck.

The 🐑 0.10.0 is out!

It’s a major overhaul of the internals leading to (I think!) a more pleasant user experience.

Dear @homeassistant users, do you have any smart light bulb to recommend that works fully locally and it integrates with #HomeAssistant? I am open to WiFi and Zigbee variants.

I just ran into a WiFi-based TP-Link Tapo bulb for half of its usual price. I bet it phones to the headquarters. It'd be great if it can be flashed with a libre firmware. Any thoughts?

Any insights how #fedora and #debian will handle the license change in #vagrant? I don't hope they would include BSL code in the distro, so… freeze the version of vagrant before the license change? Any prominent OSS fork already? #opensource #osi #license #freesoftware

Made this to show my impression of the new #Thunderbird #logo. Suffice to say, it's not great.

So did I mention that no company or government pays me for the work I do?

But you can support my work if you want to live in a world where we have the Small Web as an alternative to the Big Web of Google, Facebook, and other people farmers.

mateuszam, to Podcast Polish

Ostatnio zmieniłem swoją aplikację do podcastów ze słabego, korporacyjnego Google Podcast na @AntennaPod. Przy Google Podcast trzymała mnie tylko synchronizacja, bo mogę słuchać podcastu na byle jakim urządzeniu i w przypadku jak telefon mi się zepsuje, to mogę z innego urządzenia korzystać i nie muszę bać się o to, które podcasty subskrybuje itp.

Bo niestety (stety, bo może kogoś to przekonuje, żeby nie korzystać z aplikacji Googla) jest słabo zrobiona, nawet nie można włączyć wyświetlania okładek podcastów, ale z ciekawości chciałem zobaczyć alternatywę, dzięki podcastowi @icd postawiłem na AntennaPod, okazał się super, nie dość że w końcu widzę okładki podcastów, to jeszcze mogę moje subskrybcię posegregować w etykietach i mam dużo opcji konfiguracji.

Tylko co z synchronizacją? Przecież mi na niej tak zależało? AntenaPod ma dwie możliwości albo dzięki https://gpodder.net, albo przy użyciu instancji NextClouda, niestety nie udało mi się założyć konta na https://gpodder.net więc dzięki działającej w mojej sieci lokalnej (Przez nie możliwość przekierowania portów na ruterze tylko w lokalnej, albo naprawdę coś źle robię i nie umiem je przekierować) własnej instancji NextClouda i zainstalowaniu jednej wtyczki synchronizuje Antenę. na razie działa to w taki sposób zobaczymy jak na dłuższą metę, się będzie sprawdzać.

I forget exactly when I bought this HP laptop I'm currently using. It was at least 5 years ago, and I grabbed it for school. It has Windows 10 that came on it preinstalled. I used it for a bunch of school stuff over the last few years, never had any issues.

Today, I'm trying to mess around in Excel, I'm logged into my Microsoft account like usual, and it's trying to tell me I have to pay now to keep using Excel? It just gives an option to pay or shut it down. After 5+ years of using legitimate, paid-for Microsoft Office products on here. SUCH weird garbage.

Super thankful for LibreOffice and being able to reset all my defaults to that.

I’ve spent a long, long time thinking about ethical software, the challenges we necessarily give ourselves compared to closed competitors, and crucially, how to overcome those challenges.

Four and a half years ago, I wrote:

>respecting your privacy is the ethical thing to do; users have a fundamental right to the utmost privacy, even from companies and products they trust.

That’s as true as ever.
