You can contribute them!

There's a pretty barebones editor in Organic Maps, but you can also check out Street Complete and Every door (more advanced and less user friendly, though insanely efficient)

Because voting has very limited choice and a winner takes all mechanism. Ob-fucking-viously the candidates should be better, but not voting won't make that change. Trump elected will just make this worse.

Voting is harm reduction.

If you want to make things better and promote your own idealised society, get involved, donate to causes you consider to be up to your standards. But even then getting involved and convincing future candidates will be much harder if Trump is elected than if it's Harris.

It's not technical and more political.

Google is a surveillance company with a huge impact on web standards thanks to its insane market share. Apple on its side uses its forced monopoly to prevent websites from competing with its app store. Gecko depends on Mozilla that depends on google for 90% of its revenue, and is today a good "look we're not a monopoly" excuse for google.

I don't think people want a new engine because the current ones don't work. They want a new engine because they want the web to be truly open.

GTK is in bare C, which is rather easy to interop with Rust. Even if using GLib from Rust is a pain, GTK can and does have decent Rust bindings.

QT on the other hand is C++ with object oriented stuff, and therefore cannot have easy bindings to Rust.

And it's not just r/askreddit all subreddits I tried show a similar drop, including the ones that still seem relatively active.

Hi,

Since a couple of days, setting the theme to "browser default" doesn't respect the actual browser light or dark theme and is always dark, which is very annoying and makes it harder to read.

How can I get it back to light mode when the browser is configured in light mode?

It was an April fools.

Still doesn't justify forcing employes to handle the platform if they can't protect them from being subjected to porn

The pressure and huge workload is not suprising they have been pretty clear about that and that was highlighed in their own video with employees interviews.

That's still a pretty bad thing, especially when it causes stress for employees and innacuraccies.

That’s a harsh lesson to learn, but always sign a contract before moving for a job.

That's a completely pointless thing to say.

“inappropriatary grabbed multiple times in the office, amongst other issues” makes some harsh implications but doesn’t really explain anything. If the recounting is accurate, press charges.

That generally doesn't work for that type of aggression.

I’m sure at this point some law firm would take the case pro bono.

Because that's a thing that happens often.

I'm on Arch linux + sway and running flatpak run org.mozilla.Thunderbird just hangs. I have reset to the default permissions in flatseal.

Anyone has the same issue?

And a tweet becomes an "X-cretion"

[-] teolan@lemmy.world 82 points 1 year ago

“You should tweet that” becomes “you should X that”

"You should X-create" that

Signal goes very far to protect even the tiniest bits of metadata.

For example see sealed sender, private contact discovery and group v2.

On the other hand, matrix stores your profile info, group membership, and ongoing conversation metadata in plaintext, some of them replicated across homeservers. In addition to metadata that matrix doesn't encrypt, they also do not encrypt some actual data like emoji reactions.

Edit: clarified that conversations are not in plaintext. My wording what confusing as hell sorry.

It used to be much more dominated by the tanky rethoric of the devs, and most discussions were around FLOSS/Privacy. Now it's much more diverse.

Also, lots of porn. I kinda wish it were possible to completely block instances as a user. If I understand it's on the roadmap.
