Nothing makes our President and First Lady happier than spending Easter with our Lord.
Linux desktop news feels split in two right now.
On the one hand, Wayland is finally getting long-needed session restore, fractional scaling work is moving forward, Linux gaming just pushed past 5% on Steam, and GitHub had to retreat after backlash over Copilot pull request "tips”.
On the other, the office suite world is a proper mess: Euro-Office has launched, ONLYOFFICE has suspended its Nextcloud partnership over licensing and attribution claims, and the LibreOffice ecosystem is locked in a very public fight between TDF and Collabora.
This is what happens when open source becomes strategically important again. Governance, sovereignty, trademarks, attribution, and control all come to the surface.
Are we seeing healthy competition, or the start of fragmentation that could hurt Linux users?

Taylor curates the people and podcasts she trusts. She decides how she wants her community to look and work as well as how to moderate and monetize it. And critically, Taylor owns her followership forever.
None of this is possible in the walled gardens. But all of it is possible on the open social web.

How things can change
Hope this helps compost some of the mess building up. It's something we all need to do and have responsibility for.
Groups don’t usually fail because of external pressure, they fail because they turn inward and burn energy on themselves. If you want a calm, #KISS path that actually holds diversity without collapsing, we need a few simple lived - traditions and mythos - not heavy governance, not ideology battles, just grounded #KISS practice:
Keep the core action very small and clear – […]

Geen woord over de Leidse zonnepanelen. Of dat Orion nu bestuurd wordt en voorzien van water en zuurstof door de European Service Module. Zelfs de NASA uitzending noemt dit. Maar wij niet.
Hegseth's purge of Black and women officers larger than previously reported
"Hegseth has taken steps to block or delay promotions for MORE THAN A DOZEN Black and female senior officers across all four branches of the military."
“There is not a single service that has been immune to this level of involvement by Hegseth,” one of the U.S. officials said.
I'm very excited about the launch of @surffeeds on the web: it demonstrates the open social web's true power. https://werd.io/surf-demonstrates-the-power-of-the-open-social-web/
We just set up shop over on surf.social, a new platform that combines Threads posts with podcasts, YouTube, RSS, and more — rolling it all into custom feeds.
