As someone trying to keep fellow FLOSS maintainers from burning out, I believe I speak for many Free & Open-Source software folks out there when I say that this scene from John Carpenter's "The Thing" (1982) reflects the current vibe towards non-trivial inbound merge requests from people we don't already know…

I expect there will be a tipping point past which the network effect will be overcome. Discord was not always the juggernaut it is now discords come and go, FLOSS is forever.
Open source won media players with VLC and browsers with chromium;firefox and basically won 3d modelling with blender, games development is getting there with several professional projects made in Godot now. It does seem to be a function of time - yes open source takes longer to get to a comparable standard as proprietary software but when it attains that it doesn't enshittify and instead keeps trying to improve

people crawling back to discord despite discord spitting in their face is kinda funny and sad.

#LibreQoS Executive Dashboard:

We decided to display the global network-wide statistics as a simple heatmap.
Utilization, #QoO - Quality of Outcome, round-trip time, and retransmits follow a similar pattern.
A huge thank you to @nlnetfdn @nlnet for sponsoring this development.

Et allez, avec la merdification (ultra-prévisible et prévue) de Discord, on est reparti pour un concert de « non mais on ne peut pas partir, les alternatives libres c'est moins bien ».
On a entendu ça au moment du passage de MS-Office à son interface « ribbon » qui aurait dû logiquement vous faire tous passer à LibreOffice. Mais c'était pas assez.
On a entendu ça quand Apple a vérrouillé son écosystème. Mais c'était pas assez.
On a entendu ça quand Adobe a tout passé en ligne pour vous suçer juqu'au sang. Mais c'était pas assez.
On a entendu ça au moment de la nazification de Twitter. Mais c'était pas assez.
On a entendu ça au moment où Windows commençait à vous mater à poil H24, sans imprimante. Mais c'était pas assez.
Quand Spotify et Substack finançait des nazis. Mais c'était pas assez.
Je commence à penser que ça ne sera jamais assez.
En fin de compte, c'est peut-être pas les libristes qui se plient gratuitement en quatre pour courrir après vos lubbies pour vous protéger de la classe Epstein, le problème…

Používáte někdo nějakou autonavigaci založenou na OSM? Doporučíte nějakou? Požaduji asi hlavně rozumné trasování, časté aktualizace map, hlášení radarů a hlášení směru odbočení (tag destination=*). Používám mobil s Androidem.
