Dear developers, especially those working on free and open software: every new release is an opportunity to have someone discover your tool.

Make sure you explain what your tool is when announcing a new release and have links to where people can learn more about it.

Wow, is ebay ever terrible for selling items these days. 24 hour "indexing" delay that fails even that ridiculously generous SLA. Contact customer support and the answer is to cancel & relist items and hope it shows up again some time in the future. How is there no competitor to come in and eat their lunch?

@9x0rg @rysiek@mastodon.technology @Tanuki depending on the threat model, it might be worth looking at XMPP (with OMEMO) or briar. Signal still has centralization issues

I hate typing on touchscreens. For years, this was a non-issue since I had a BlackBerry Classic. After moving to a more modern phone (first a Moto e6, then a Teracube 2e), I wanted a solution that would make it easier to see and respond to SMS on my computer and larger tablet. I settled on JMP, which connects a number to an XMPP account, and wrote about my experience.

Our 6-yr-old Fairphone 2 is being upgraded to Android 10. That’s 7 years of software support! An industry first for an Android device! 🙌 Together with the open source community we built the operating system. Proving it is possible to put sustainability at the heart of tech. 🌿

@mhoye ah, sounds like recovery mode when something crashes like a watch face. Though could be another underlying problem. Maybe try pebble-help-legacy.rebble.io/h and reflash using gadgetbridge or maybe rebble (I've only used gadgetbridge to flash). A bit of a dance, but might extend its life by a bit

@mhoye what was the failure mode? Which model is it?

@Natanox @matrix using both the matrix.org homeserver and librem.one and I have the same experience across laptop and android devices. Loading pure matrix channels, even with few participants, takes a long time to load both the most recent messages, as well as any history before that. Same with bridged IRC and Telegram channels. I don't have much in the way of 1:1 chats so not sure about the performance of those, but for group chatting it's way too frustrating.

@Natanox @matrix the blocker for me remains the painfully slow interactions that keep it from being a pleasant experience. New features are nice, but the old ones are still unsuitable for transitioning people to the network

Hi @delta I just convinced my friend who uses K9 to turn on "Autocrypt mutual mode" and then our chat (them on K9, me on Delta Chat) became encrypted ♥ That is awesome

Looks like I'm NOT that paranoid because of refusing to use any fingerprint related unlocking mechanism after all.

Only shows how big #GoogleMaps has become, where a government agency "asks" them to modify their features, and whose users "pay" for the "free" map by becoming targets for advertisers

P.S.
Many of these cycleway maps are available for Free #OpenStreetMap 😜

New NFT things: babysongbirdsnft.com , (on blue bird @BabySongbirds ).

Don't buy them: it infringes my moral right (davidrevoy.com/article864/) and they added CC-By compliance just now after fans noticed.
