3·6 months agoYes and no. Code development for Nitter has officially stopped afaik, but there are still some instances not completely dead.

5·6 months agoThis article is about Mobifree https://f-droid.org/en/2024/05/24/mobifree.html As far as I can see F-Droid mentions that it will be a contributing partner :
For more than 14 years, F-Droid has been developing solutions which act as pieces of the alternative mobile ecosystem puzzle. So it was a natural fit for F-Droid to become a contributing partner in the broader Mobifree project.
F-Droid playing a role :
F-Droid will play a major role in this project, tasked with creating a decentralized distribution system for developers to deliver apps to Android users.
Help to create the NGI funded project Mobifree :
F-Droid is one participating organization who has joined forces to help create this new mobile ecosystem. However, additional input, expertise, inspiration and work will be needed in order to break the traditional framework established by Big Tech. From community outreach to legal support, from developers, to researchers and end users, we welcome all forms of support.
I don’t read that F-droid will force ads on F-Droid on users any time soon. I can imagine F-Droid will continue to exist as it is but I could be wrong.
That looks neat and useful. <nitpick mode on> It is an Android wrapper around rclone not rsync.<nitpick mode off> Thanks for sharing.
:( Website of NGI :
And they appear to have a fresh Mastodon account hosted by the EU :
According to this I think this is the Mastodon account of the Funkwhale developer https://mastodon.eliotberriot.com/@funkwhale which is down as well. The first link also has a link to their Matrix channel.
The discontinuation of neofetch development was big news for a lot of people, for example here : https://lemmy.ml/post/15051857 I’m happy for the software developer, now a farmer though :)
The developer maybe moved on to something new, like author of neofetch took up farming a few months ago.
2·8 months agoSorry about that.
No worries. The archive.ph link gave me a Google reCAPTCHA to solve 😱 but the original link was perfectly readable for me. What were the paywall comments about, was it a non EU thing ?
To extend the link collection here’s a WayBackMachine one :
2·8 months agoUnfortunately the feddit.de server has been broken for quite a while and we have trouble contacting the admin.
Oh, that explains it.

That brings back some memories of a former US president. https://youtube.com/watch?v=Yq7FKO5DlV0
And to answer OP question :
spoiler
Yes, more younger politicians. Make retirement age 50. And more diversity as well, less white males.
With etherpad-lite the default is guest mode and no protection at all (but I’ve seen that with plugins user accounts can be made). With Hedgedoc and Cryptpad user accounts can be made and I think with that “private” protected pads are possible.
Since you mentioned Etherpad-lite :
Framasoft did a great job on Mobilizon! Good that they go for a healthy approach and not eventually end up with burned out developers and maintainers.
A much better choice in my opinion is the newer Soothing Noise Player : https://f-droid.org/en/packages/ie.delilahsthings.soothingloop/
Here’s Noice in F-Droid which I stopped using after I saw it asked to make Internet connections :

Okay. Got a source for that ? I had the impression from the SerenityOS developer that the donations came because of the videos that Andreas is making but I could be wrong.
Thanks a lot for sharing your experience.
Making people unhappy
A marketer I know has a mantra, that successful sales are all about dissatisfaction - making people aware just how their situation sucks, and then offering a way to relieve the pain.
Interesting read.
Thanks for sharing!
/e/os is LineageOS + microG with an easy installer available or pre-installed purchase. The interface design is based on how iOS works, for example to move an icon on your phone long press one of the icons and wait till they all go wiggling and then drag the icon to where you want to have it.
I think /e/os is okay for folks who want a deGoogled phone that comes pre-installed.
In case anyone wants to try the /e/os easy installer on an old and supported phone, the /e/os easy install is really much more easy compared to plain LineageOS install.
