7·1 天前Nah, the API is still returning data, the database seems to not be affected. It’s just to many people trying to access the site simultaneously, accidentally DDOSing the server
Third party tracker: https://stopkillinggamestracker.pages.dev/
It won’t give you any information right now as the API is down as well but that’s the pace to check once the EU gets their servers up and running again
Thx for the info. I’ve changed it to a different host

Thank you for your service
Not necessarily. Both have their drawbacks. It takes longer for new hardware to be supported on Debian and setting up a Nvidia grafics card is more complicated
You should try pangolin. It uses Traefik instead of Caddy under the hood but it automates approximately 80 % of setup. It’s what I use for my setup.
5·7 天前One thing you can do: In person organising. It’s something the campaign has been really bad at. Have some flyers printed up and start handing them out. I don’t know the Italian school schedule, but if universities are still in session they might be good targets.
I did it last year, first at Gamescom and then at a local uni and I think it helped spread the word.
Distro: short for distribution. Linux is not an operating system. It’s a piece of technology (specifically something called a kernel) you can use to create an OS. Those Linux based OSs are referred to as distros. We are usually not calling them “Versions” because the Linux Kernel is also frequently seeing updates and that would just cause confusion.
Debian and Ubuntu: Popular distros. Ubuntu tends to be a bit more user friendly than Debian and was the default recommendation for new user for a long time. In recent years its popularity among enthusiasts declined because of a series of unpopular decisions, mainly the adaptation of something called snaps which is not completely open source and takes a bit more time to launch apps than alternatives. Debian on the other hand really values stability. Updates arrive less frequently than on other distros but undergo really rigorose testing.
You are right. I’ve corrected my comment
There’s also qobuz for your more mainstream music needs. And you can always use a YouTube downloaded like yt-dlp together with a music tagging tool like MusicBrainz Picard.
2·19 天前I could be completely wrong, but the fact, that you stated, that Telegram doesn’t receive messages without the tray icon leads me to believe that they are doing background services wrong. Because the status icon in the tray is supposed to be exactly that. The service itself shouldn’t be tied to that.
Is the new UI broken or are app developers just not implementing it into their apps or what’s wrong with the current situaltion?
Both, kinda. The new UI relies afaik on xdg-portals to get which apps are running in the background. Therefore only flatpaks should show up; but they should show up automatically, without any tweaks by the devs.
Also the UI only displays that an app is running in the background. It can’t communicate any type of status information.
3·1 个月前They are exploiting a legal loophole: technically the law doesn’t specify that you have to provide a tracking free version for free. So they don’t.
I don’t think this would stand up to scrutiny in court, because the law does state that getting a tracking free version needs to be as easy as the alternative and registering is more complicated than clicking “continue with cookies”. But so far this is untested conjecture.
Data protection. The EU doesn’t do the validation, they don’t even have the data necessary for it. That job falls to the national governments. But why share the data if the initiative wasn’t successful in the first place.
