social media... you can watch people from your filter bubble disparaging those outside it, people from a different filter bubble disparaging those inside yours, or you can watch @jameschip moving coins from hand to hand. At this point, the bad outweighs the good 👋

PSA: I'm stepping down from putting together an STF application for 2025.

Reflecting on our experiences with the STF project last year, I no longer think the GNOME Foundation is a good venue to organize development collectively. Even if the Foundation's current issues are fixed, we've seen how risky it is to centralize development in a single structure.

My hope is that we'll learn from this and find more sustainable, decentralized ways of organizing going forward.

I've been experimenting with @agx 's phosh-osk-keyboard , and hacked together a script to automatically change the shortcuts based on the window titles.

Seems some of phosh's features could use some marketing 😃 . Anyway: I've just added how to use swipeGuess in the manpage: gitlab.gnome.org/guidog/phosh-

Introducing Honeybee: an XMPP client to make calls!

The goal with this project is to hopefully have another option for improving call reliability on Linux (and consequently Linux mobile).

@bart @cas @postmarketOS

Can we have an abstraction over these UI toolkits/libs so apps can target multiple UIs without thinking too hard about it? 😅

From editing waveforms, to simply editing text files. #Radio #journalism is changing! I've tested and tried a workflow that uses #Whisper for automatic transcriptions and #Vim for editing that is very promising and a bit...okay, very nerdy. Here's why it matters, how it works and what is still lacking:

@zachdecook Okay, this is awesome. It just took me only 30 minutes to do a rough edit of an almost 2h interview, which is now also 30 minutes shorter! I'll play around a bit more, and then I'll see if I can do a write-up from a radio journalists perspective on what works well, and where the rough edges are.

(I'm really hoping to get people who like compiling compositors on their phones interested, that way they can fix the bugs and I won't have to!)

workspace_swipe_touch was just merged into ; I would say this is almost a competitive interface, but still not a perfect drop-in for sway.

That "edit your podcast using Vim" program (recently mentioned on the podcast) now supports github.com/scateu/tsv_edl.vim because I realized I have a project that this is a good fit for, and I write micro plugins . It's nice to have a lightweight audio/video editor that works in my favorite text editor.

What's a good slicer (for ) that's easy to install in stable (not edge)? (maybe I need to convince @anjan to move into community...)

I managed to prove the HW is working thanks to some things here wiki.postmarketos.org/wiki/Als

So I guess just the config is wrong for my oneplus 6.

Audio on my daily driver running has had a major regression this week (maybe hardware problem?) and now I think I need to buy a different phone.
