beep boop
Im confused by this list. It includes the matrix server implementations synapse and continuwuity, but not matrix itself or any of its clients. The only matrix client that could reasonably replace discord is element but its not even there.
The initial release was literally 7 HOURS ago so its not really recommendable yet at all. Idk why it keeps getting spammed here today.
Stoat has been around for 5 years and used to be called Revolt until recently.

Neither are e2ee or federated so not particularly future proof or enshittification resistant unless you self host (which most people dont…)
I see. I havent selfhosted any matrix servers yet, so i havent looked into it too much. But yeah its kind of an intimidating process to set these up when i look at the guides. I know that there are a few server implementations besides synapse that are mature and stable (and supposedly much more resource efficient) and they do support docker deployment. All of these including synapse can however be run on a raspberry pi so there isnt really any big requirements other than keeping it up to date and doing backups of your databases.
I admit i mostly use matrix as an instant messenger, but it works fine for when i need comms with my friends while gaming or when i want to share my screen for something. My university also has its own deployment so all the people around me automatically have an account anyway, which makes it easy to set up groupchats.
Sure it still has some jank to it, but if you look at how janky it used to be even just a year ago, the trajectory is pretty clear to me. Its a very ambitious project that arguably tried to do too much at once in its early days, but i think its here to stay and its only gonna get better. If its not good enough for you today, then just wait another year or two until it is. Its not going away because its being used basically everywhere at this point. Government, healthcare, military, university, private industry, schools, etc.
Also completely new with no other contributors. Stay the fuck away from this until its been in development for a while and someone reviewed the code.
then you can use matrix
Been using it for a while and it works quite well for what it is. It also overlays the translated text on the original image which is nice. The translation engine is the exact same one as the one in firefox and its forks, so dont expect deepl levels but its still perfectly fine for most casual use cases.
The post that you are commenting under.
The post mentions revenue stream, so its about people going with slop software instead of normal one. In other words replacement.
Booting from USB drives has worked well for me
Get the popcorn ready :3
No genuine good open source project is dying because it is getting replaced by LLM slop code. People that need stable and secure software and know what they are doing would never use LLM made software.
What LLMs do destroy is peoples patience in dealing with bug reports and forum communication. Those are getting overrun with LLM generated garbage replies.
Most of these are still relevant issues afaik, so yeah… appimages are just not a solution for everything. Same as stuff like flatpak and snap. These are nice for when you just need some little standalone app that doesnt do a lot of compute heavy stuff, but they will never replace native implementations.
i think the the “s” on devices is also important to make it make sense
What? Is that title english? Am i confused?
ThinkPad ACPI driver to begin reporting damaged device detection
Interesting, thanks for the lil summary :)
Microsofts WSL is stupidly named. It shouldve been LSW.
I convinced my workplace to host this one and it works well for us.
Well lets hope that she will be relieved of her position soon then…
Idk but apparently the dev of tuwunel was a dick about the fork splitting.
