I just want that popup tooltip thing to stop blocking the most important part of the UI when I delete a message in Proton Mail… That’s something obvious and should take 15 minutes to half an hour of a decent dev’s time.

I’m really appalled by how bad Proton’s project management is.

…ActivityPub?

That being said, I can’t trust MKBHD is not hallucinating either.

IMO he can contribute all he wants. His PRs will still have to go through someone else (i.e. the new maintainer / lead dev). I don’t care if he adds new code. That’s much appreciated.

Toxicity is more of an issue if you’re the maintainer since you have control over the project.

I’m very close to pulling the trigger on Graphene. One question though - usually when I try open source / secure alternatives to some popular software the UI is janky and super old looking.

Is Graphene like this with their custom apps / UI stuff? Will I notice? Or is it identical to the stock OS UI design?

They claimed that authoritarian governments do not do this since they have no reason.

Sure, but what the person I replied to is claiming is that e.g. North Korea doesn’t lie to its people about reasons it does things, which is, of course, bullshit.

LOL, this is a joke right? Authoritarian countries don’t lie about reasons for doing things? LMAO

Hopefully they’re planning on using that to integrate with the Fediverse.

Why not? I thought it had very good security. It’s E2E encrypted and the government of France uses it.

Are they? I see ones like

Small government

This is sarcastic, but it’s as much of a joke as Stephen Colbert - it’s touching on something pretty real. Not sure what’s wrong with pointing out hypocrisy.

annoying != complicated

This article is about water found on mars… Did you reply to the wrong post? I don’t see anything about colonization.

I miss my Nexus One.

I view Gitea as the real alternative to GitHub. I was very big on GitLab for a long time, and think any competition is good, but I’d really like it if more people could seriously invest in Gitea.

They’re also working on ActivityPub support: https://github.com/go-gitea/gitea/issues/18240

AFAIK you can get around this by using raw pointers / unsafe blocks in Rust, then have a human target those to rewrite it in a safe, structured way.

The difference is this is actually shipping to manufacturers.

The 90s?

There’s a big difference between a protocol (what you refer to as Lemmy is actually a protocol called ActivityPub) and a centralized organization (Odyssee). Many / most Lemmy instances will ban Nazi posts, many also defederating from instances which allow them. However, the fact that it’s a protocol means it’s still free speech. This is IMO a very good system to have, and emulates real world free speech dynamics.

Odyssee, however, allowing Nazi stuff is not okay since they are not a protocol. They’re the equivalent of a Lemmy instance. Lots of people are against Hexbear, for example, myself included.

Maybe they should get search working first? Or just contacts sync?
