  • Wayland is basically X12 in many ways

  • The Matrix Foundation and Element/New Vector are different orgs, and it's Element with the government contracts

  • "slowly being cannibalised" at the start the foundation was just new vector/element putting on a funny hat. It's got less bad as time has gone on tbh

  • Copying my post from up thread:

    Delta chat is hilariously slow. It’s less of an instant messenger and moreover next business day messenger. That’s ignoring the problems you’ll have running it on your own infrastructure.

  • Electric is not a discord clone and element has a customer base more similar to slack. And to end encrypted direct messages have been the default for years now in Matrix.

  • To go on top of the reverse DNS/mail comments, it can also be useful for running a service like codeburg pages, or some other program that handles its own virtual hosting and TLS, without interfering with your more traditional services.

  • Stalwart recently released CalDAV & CardDAV support, and it's what I use for mail. It's pretty secure by default too.

  • Haha thanks. From what I've figured out, this it's Lemmy and HN that brought the traffic. I can't seem to upload an image of the graph though :(

  • Talon is closed source, What's available on GitHub is the community command set - effectively just configuration

  • That wouldn't be what I would expect. Having mixed new lines in a file is generally a bad thing - the editor should pick one mode

  • Definitely! The author is super friendly in IRC too (and Xe, the anubis author, is there as well lol)

  • They make one request per IP. Rate limit per IP does nothing.

  • The problem (as matrix people found out the hard way) is some media & content is very illegal. Most individuals really don't want even the chance of being exposed to CSAM or gore, and neither do server operators want the chance of that being shared from their server or written to their disk when that can result in police at the door. You need default-on moderation that is very powerful, and end users should never be distributing media they don't want to. This pushes towards centralisation of nodes run by experts, and heavily punishes true P2P models.

  • Windows licenses ain't cheap. Never have been.

  • Here are some interesting feeds I follow, mostly tech-focused and quite Rust heavy:

    Generated by opening an OPML export in firefox, running the following script and deleting a bunch of feeds:

     js
        
     "- " + [...document.querySelectorAll("body > outline > outline")].map((f) => `[${f.getAttribute("text")}](${f.getAttribute("htmlUrl")}) \`${f.getAttribute("xmlUrl")}\``).join("\n- ") 
    
      
  • Not right now.

  • I use https://fedoraproject.org/coreos/ for my server/website. My host doesn't offer it as an image so I have to upload it myself, but I use an ISO I made with the CLI to automatically set up everything anyway. It works pretty well, I configured auto updates and I can just forget about it.
