The fact that container package formats like #snap and #flatpak can somewhat contain the damages from bad code or bad coding practices should not be perceived as a license nor a permit to continue having bad software development and coding practices.
Yes this is a small rant after a convo where talking about a bad software practice someone says;
That is why flatpak is good, it isolates the system from that.
An 11% increase in hate crimes against trans people is a direct side effect of Tory political strategy.
Had the need to charge an all electric Kia recently and guess what: both the charging stations app and the vendor's app are proprietary so how would I know when charging finished?
Turns out people around #HomeAssistant figured out the vendor API so I could use that to have a small app to monitor the charging status on my #Librem5 running #phosh

And so 21.09.2023 around midnight we will be running nextcloud update which can cause downtime of an hour or so (depending how long the update will take).
Once, this is done we will update the changelog with information about today and tomorrow’s updates. Consider it Maintenance window #50b

You get a completely free operating system, please support us in developing it with detailed
reports rather than pushing end user support upstream.
At the very minimum check with the communities upfront how to best interact and supply them with hardware.

Dear @junocomputers if you sell computers and use Free Software Operating systems it is not o.k. to assume you can free ride on community support.
It makes me sad to have mails from users in my inbox that are stuck with an unusable device on a Sunday and are seeking help to get it going again. This is your job.
Please listen to your customer's issue. If it's a software issue in the latest upstream version forward it with a good description.
