Doesn’t seem like it, but users who don’t know how to toggle a setting should be kept faaaar away from sideloading

I get wanting to phase out Mercurial in favour of git. But why did they have to choose Github T_T

Ideally they would have just hosted a their own Forgejo instance (heck, a Gitlab one would have been better too FFS). Even just using Codeberg and donating would have been better

The for-profit side of Mozilla seems to have succeeded in purging most of the principles Mozilla used to have (IK they have been eroding over the years and sometimes been too “pragmatic”, this is just the cherry on top of a long series of shitpiles)

if Mozilla actually stood for a free/libre future they’d push Forgejo to the lvl they need it to be (if it already isn’t capable of all that stuff. Haven’t rly interacted much with it).
Since they will still keep the CI/CD on Mercurial for now, there is even less valid reasons for using Github…

Exactly; a lot of international organisations are already located in Switzerland, so there shouldn’t be many gripes with that (also means you aren’t at the whims of a global empire in self-destruct mode)

On Fedora, Btrfs has been the default for years now iirc. It’s modern and rock solid too (as long as you avoid Raid 5/6) and has some features I can’t live without nowadays:

• Copy-on-write (prevents file duplication)
• Snapshots (your systems broke? most easy rollback you will ever experience is with Btrfs in combination with Timeshift)
• on-the-fly compression (I’d recommend “–compression-force=zstd:3” as a mount option. Last I checked Fedora defaulted to using the lowest compression level, which is not the Btrfs default, making you lose some gains. FYI about the “force”: btrfs by default checks whether a file is compressible or not, this is redundant with zstd, which does the same thing but quite a bit faster AFAIK)

Its’ lead dev is also so full of himself, it’s insufferable

The bot might just be more humane than any Israeli official

I don’t think you understand what “open source” means then?

To put it simply: a programme using a license that guarantees certain freedoms.

Chromium uses such a license: the 3-Clause BSD license

please don’t insult the FSF like that by comparing it to the LF…

The FSF might be unpragmatic and (thus) often horribly out of date, but it’s neither opportunistic nor engaged in corporate bootlickery.

At some times it can even be dogmatic, but you can at least mostly depend on it keepig it’s spine and vision!
(even if I partially disagree with it, as it’s doctrine does not take political economy — and thus the root problem that is capitalism — into account)

Isn’t that objectively a false statement?

The Maoists have come far it seems

(sry, couldn’t help myself lol)

I’m so glad the project isn’t stale, thank you devs! I have been using Voyager the last few months but nothing is quite on the lvl of Eternity

(and tbh Voyager feels too iOS-y for me)

It has no large community nor an organization behind it.
Leading to a lot of trouble for me personally, it’s the 2nd month now (after multiple updates) that my Gnome wayland desktop hasn’t been working properly at all (like xwayland programmes displaying as a blank transparency, me not being able to start certain ones) and switching to X11 works but it’s buggy af and sometimes freezes for a few second

I suspect that it has been a problem with the nvidia driver after having updated it and I have never had those problems before

Don’t get me wrong Glorious Eggroll is doing good work but qa (due to size) leaves smth do be desired

I regret ever having switched to the amateur distro that is Nobara bc I was too lazy to set up Feodra a 2nd time after the Grub fiasco Arch (and thus my daily driver back then EndeavourOS) had lol

Will switch the second OpenSuSe Slowroll becomes stable

They probably just want to cut down dev costs by outsourcing to unpaid interns volunteers
