Linux@programming.dev•Debian Project Leader Addresses New Age Verification Laws
14·2 months agoDont they just have to put a disclaimer saying that usage of the OS isnt legal in those places? That works for all sorts of other stuff so why not here?

Linux@programming.dev•I Spoke To The Developer Of The Systemd Birth Date PR - YouTube
15·2 months agoCheck the other crossposts with more comments. He got personally harassed and is rightfully mad about it. The dude is still a shithead (if you look at his other activity) but its not his sole fault but the fault of the entire project for deciding to preemptively comply with a law that probably wont even be enforced. The implementation doesnt actually do anything other than being a freely writable text field anyways so the whole situation is kinda overblown. Still its odd that they even implemented it at all.

Linux@programming.dev•CachyOS Is Now the Most Popular Desktop Distro on ProtonDB
4·2 months agoWell not in this plot. They just arent relevant for gaming by the looks of it.

Linux@programming.dev•CachyOS Is Now the Most Popular Desktop Distro on ProtonDB
9·2 months agoFair point yeah. So its all just Arch, Fedora and Debian in the end.

Linux@programming.dev•CachyOS Is Now the Most Popular Desktop Distro on ProtonDB
25·2 months agoIf you go that way, you also gotta count ubuntu and all its derivatives towards debian.
But if you look at the plot you can see the only ubuntu based ones are mint, ubuntu and pop which add up to 20.6% and thats still less than cachy. So unless you add the 2.7% of debian to make a “debian based” cluster, cachy still wins with 21.1%
All this to say, cachyos is fucking boomin.

Linux@programming.dev•The Free Software Foundation Europe was cancelled by their payment provider after refusing to hand over personal account data!
881·2 months agoActually yeah. Completely useless intermediaries just leeching other peoples money.

Open Source@lemmy.ml•Can/should I put Modding projects for closed-source games on Codeberg?
7·3 months agoIf the mod code itself is open, i dont see why not. There are lots of open source projects that are used in conjunction with closed source stuff, like custom wrappers or security research tools.

Selfhosted@lemmy.world•Element/Matrix Official Docker Install Method?English
21·3 months agoIdk but apparently the dev of tuwunel was a dick about the fork splitting.

Selfhosted@lemmy.world•big list of selfhosted chat apps to meet all your friends on a real "server"English
145·3 months agoIm 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.

Selfhosted@lemmy.world•In light of changes coming to discord: SharkordEnglish
29·3 months agoThe 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…)

Selfhosted@lemmy.world•Sharkord - an open-source self-hostable Discord alternative with voice, video, and real-time messaging.English
1·3 months agoI 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.

Selfhosted@lemmy.world•Sharkord - an open-source self-hostable Discord alternative with voice, video, and real-time messaging.English
31·3 months agoI 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.

Open Source@lemmy.ml•Offline Translator: An Android translator app that performs text and image translation completely offline using on-device models—Supports automatic language detection
34·3 months agoBeen 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.

So more because its a dead architecture and less because of politics actually
