@tbernard The funny thing is that we wouldn't be having this conversation had it not been for the Libreoffice developer layoffs at Red Hat.
@agx Oh, I have a clearer picture of it now. Thank you for taking the time to help me understand. The work you and your teams are doing is incredibly exciting.
@agx Thank you so much for the insight! I can understand concentrating on the other areas that would make the Librem 5 more pleasant to use. It seems like I was wrong to think that GTK4 was needed for accelerated animation in the compositor. I look forward to getting mine to try all the recent polish. Thank you!
@agx Does this release include the port to GTK4?
@omglinux I have discovered so many great apps thanks to you! It is great to see the Linux world get more exciting by the day 😄️

A few years ago, JSF (@jakartaee Faces) seemed like a legacy framework. And now I see 2 trustworthy people praising it in the same week. World is turning around :) Or are people fed up with hyped frameworks? https://twitter.com/simas_ch/status/1661007259407900678

Want to use gRPC in WildFly? Have a look at the latest blog post at https://www.wildfly.org/news/2023/05/22/grpc-subsystem/. Ron Sigal explains how to set it up and what you can expect from the new gRPC feature pack.
@jgrulich Exciting work!!
@nielsdg This is the first feedback I have found on the new Color Management functionality for Wayland. This is super exciting and comforting to see the work has been well received!
@vincent You rock!

On Monday, I wrote an essay about climate and biodiversity for Scientific American. I tracked proportional engagement, calculated as (likes + shares + comments)/followers, over six social media platforms.
The winner? MASTODON, by a landslide.
Second place? INSTAGRAM. It's harder to share posts on IG, but lot of people like things there!
The loser? FACEBOOK, also by a landslide. On Facebook, I've been shadow-banned since August 2018 when they listed clean energy and climate as "socially sensitive topics" so my page there stopped growing 6 years ago and now only about 1% of my followers there ever see my posts. It's actually too bad, because that's the platform where I reach the most conservative audiences through their connections to friends and family. So even though it's dead last, I still persist.

No, you can't license my cat picture to Elon, Jack and Mark.
When you post on #Bluesky, #Twitter or #Meta you agree to grant them a very broad perpetual license to the content, including the right to sublicense. On Mastodon, most instances do not take a license. Any bridge that takes content from Mastodon and, without permission, puts that content on another platform is violating that user's copywrite to the content. You can not license content which you do not own.
