Are you experienced with GTK and Rust ? :gnome: ❤️ :rust:

We are looking to contract someone to work on the new GNOME Password Manager 🔑

We want it to become a core/default app and help secure millions of users.

You'll be working with the GNOME Foundation, a non-profit dedicated to building emancipatory technologies for everyone.

Junction 1.8 is out ✨

Junction pops up automatically when you open a file or link to let you choose which app to open with.

https://flathub.org/apps/re.sonny.Junction

The highlight of this version is better mobile and touch support :linux: 📱

Plus, the app is now verified on Flathub and has a "High quality app data" rating.

Dear Fediverse,

I have a domain, say "example.net" and I want to setup a couple of redirects so that "example.net/awesome" redirects to "foobar.com/something"

I don't want to manage a server or nginx config for this.

I currently use Gandi Web Forwarding but it doesn't support HTTPS.

Any recommendation for something as low maintenance as possible?

@sonny@floss.social avatar

@matt

Thanks.

Sounds more complicated than I care for, and there is only one Amazon I care about :)

bonus point for server side analytics

I don't mind paying a monthly fee for this - I just don't want to have to think about it or maintain it

sonny,
@sonny@floss.social avatar

@gabz thanks

Thanks

I don't have a setup right now. I prefer doing the redirects server side.

@sonny@floss.social avatar

@QuadRadical

I meant to friendly say no :)

I want server side redirect

sonny,
@sonny@floss.social avatar

@QuadRadical I don't want to manage a server. I'm hoping to find a service that will take care of the server administration for me.

Hey, I wonder how many packages, and especially runtimes, from #Flathub, might have the backdoored #xz?

sonny,
@sonny@floss.social avatar

@xtaran @tulpa

xz ships as part of the org.freefesktop.Platform runtime and isn't affected

Which reminds me; I made a mermaid previewer for Apostrophe last year.

I'll try to rebase after GTK4 port is out

    In case you missed it, Decibels is now in GNOME Incubator: https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/Incubator/decibels

    This means it's on track to become a GNOME Core app, and you can install Nightly builds of Decibels from the gnome-nightly flatpak remote to help catch issues 👷.

    flatpak install --user gnome-nightly org.gnome.Decibels

    @vixalientoots that's amazing, congrats!

    @kop316

    @cassidy recently opened an issue for that https://github.com/flatpak/flatpak/issues/5757

    re reproducible builds, there are plans, but it's not at the top of the priority list just yet
