Also, is there really a good alternative for google maps? I keep coming back to it, as much as I don't want to. Preferably #foss of course.

Skyper,

@jarno I personally use @organicmaps on my mobile, and I love it.

@Skyper @organicmaps thanks, this looks like a potential winner. Runs very smooth as well!

Apparently the German government paid Microsoft 198 million Euro for software licenses in 2023 alone…and all I can think of is the good that such a large sum could do if instead it was donated to the Linux foundation and various other #FOSS projects. 😳

amxmln,
@amxmln@mastodon.design avatar

You know, spending all that tax money on something that would actually benefit all the tax payers instead of ending up in shareholder pockets? 😅

“Yes but they tried Linux and it failed” I hear some people say and to that I can only reply: well, maybe it wouldn’t have failed if they had invested nearly 200 million into it every year. 😒

@amxmln There's been so much good that's come from the Sovereign Tech Fund giving GNOME 1 € million to work on important projects.

https://foundation.gnome.org/2023/11/09/gnome-recognized-as-public-interest-infrastructure/

This Week In GNOME has a section with so much happening each week as a result.

https://thisweek.gnome.org/

(Several of these projects aren't even GNOME specific, but improve the stack for everyone, like many accessibility improvements.)

I can't even begin to imagine the impact if it were nearly 200× more per year.

Finally found a #FOSS #android #scrobbler that supports saving to a self-hosted service or a local file: https://github.com/kawaiiDango/pano-scrobbler

Many thanks to @youronlyone for pointing me in the right direction. Added their f-droid repo to Droid-ify, and bob's your uncle!

Now I've exported my last.fm #scrobbles thanks to https://github.com/encukou/lastscrape-gui/blob/master/lastexport.py, and I can delete my account. XD

Yeah, I noticed that. I haven't messed with any of the *omas yet.

My only #Fedi experience has been mastodon and #GoToSocial, and of course #Pixelfed and #PeerTube.

@graphite

If you do try it out, let me know how it goes. I'd be curious to see what the output looks like on the #fedi

Hello @librewolf how is it possible to setup @keepassxc on macos with the browser addon? I cannot make it work. #Help would be greatly appreciated. #foss #privacy #keepassxc #librewolf #setup

cyrus,

Just FYI you posted into a Lemmy community, you didn’t ping Librewolf.

Whilst the community is official from what I know, you’ll probably not get answers directly from developers here, I’d check the FAQ

@999999999@lemmy.ml avatar

This issue is on the FAQ section. On liinux Librewolf native messaging does not work and you have to to fix it. It is really easy btw. Search this issue in the docs you should get it immediatly.

Advocating for #Wasmcloud to adopt a OSS-first approach and use #LinuxFoundation #OpenBAO as their example of a secret store integration in upcoming RFC implementation..

https://github.com/wasmCloud/wasmCloud/issues/2190#issuecomment-2141124236

@linuxfoundation projects are already seen as overly corporate, and sticking as much as possible to at least #OSS and preferably even #FOSS in docs + elaborated examples would help to not further reinforce that notion.

#WebAssembly #wasm #Vault

@smallcircles@social.coop avatar

And great news. discussed the issue and decided:

  • will not be the reference implementation.

  • Wasmcloud looks forward to presenting as one of their main integrations once it reaches GA.

  • The awareness that Vault constitutes "faux-pen source" made Wasmcloud implement automated license checks.

Read the details in this comment on the RFC:

A self-hosted scrobble software that could be good for ActivityPub support: Maloja.

@youronlyone

Are there any FOSS android scrobbler apps that support it?

The only FOSS scrobblers I can find are either 5 years old or 12 years old. :/

youronlyone,
@youronlyone@c.im avatar

@RL_Dane Ahh, there is, Pano Scrobbler by kawaiiDango.

They support:

  • Libre.fm
  • Last.fm
  • GNUfm
  • ListenBrainz (main + custom)
  • Maloja
  • Pleroma
  • File saving (CSV or JSONL)

I don't even know where to start with this.

But like. Where would you find the money, mate?

Like I have a corporate org already. I am happy to take your money for my work. I should send you my invoice ? Happy to, can I get the information and your signature on the contract?

I thought so.

Maybe come back when you know what you are talking about.
