Noooo, another push from Google for me to move from their services.

I , Instagram, and WhatsApp. Also got some of my family onto Signal. A few more people left and then the friends. Face to face is the best technique to get people onto Signal. Also once they're on, get them to message their contacts already on Signal so they have a few people on their list.

Its democracy or widespread death and despair...in the digital era you can't run democracy without the #4opens so this has to be at the root of our garden of ideas.

It turns out that the reason free, open source messengers suck on iOS is that #Apple force-closes background applications unless you pay them for the privilege - which is why proprietary applications like WhatsApp, Discord and Facebook Messenger work just fine.

This means small and free actors are banned from participating.

Handibox is an accessibility tool that will allow Human-Computer interaction with people who have some degree of motor disability. Through #Handibox, users can carry out elementary activities such as using the Internet, writing emails, and more!

The team, Alejandro, Fabio, and Matias, seeks to integrate with other #accessibility applications in GNOME and are looking for guidance from the accessibility team. They also need community help precompiling libraries like dlib. #GNOMEChallenge
