I don’t think one currently exists, but it would be an interesting project. There are plenty of trackers for CVEs but in terms of project ethics, acquisitions, etc., there’s a space for it.

The two main problems I can see are:

1. How do you define ‘negative’? An open source application being acquired is often a bad thing, but not always. An acquisition by FUTO is more likely to be viewed positively than an acquisition by Microsoft, but either can be interpreted positively or negatively depending on the person.

2. Community involvement is absolutely critical. If I were running a service like this (for example), I would only really be keeping up on the services I use and care about. I would need others to submit info and then verify it.

Sorry, I should clarify. I’m hoping to possibly have a setup like this:

1. Browser makes a request to an eepsite
2. The router sees the request is to a domain ending in .i2p and forwards the request to a service running on the router
3. That service then performs the necessary encryption and establishes connection with the I2P network.

I’d imagine it’s a similar process for other protocols and networks. No idea if this is possible or desirable.

Any issues lately with your network? When DNS is down or having issues, Firefox and forks take forever to start up.

Oh. You’re right. That worked. I feel really silly that I missed that.

Thank you so much!

I have both web and websecure set up as entrypoints.

If you want your environment to be consistent between desktops, keep it mostly stock. The default KDE themeing and setup is pretty damn similar to Windows 10, and I’ve kept it stock ever since I started using it ~1 ½ years ago.

It is not an abuse of anyone’s creative rights to the convert music from a game you legally own to a different format.

I think Obsidian and Logseq are helping to change this.

For what it’s worth, I’ve been running alternative Discord clients for years (Webcord, discord-screenaudio, and now Vesktop/Vencord) and haven’t encountered any issues or bans. By far, the most polished and well integrated is Vesktop/Vencord. I don’t consider my Discord account worth risking either, but given that I’ve yet to see a verifiable report of someone losing access to Discord for using an alternate client (even the ones that enable Nitro subscription features), I think I’m pretty safe.

Personally, I’d say risk it for the biscuit. There are some hacky workarounds but all of them are annoying to set up and finicky. As for alternative platforms, I’m not sure…

Gas fees, fees to convert to fiat, electricity bills for miners / initial investment for stakers… No matter how you frame it, there are still associated fees. Might as well use the standard we have at the moment.

Pardon me, but would this not interfere with partners’ ability to host services via 99% of Linux-based servers?

I know this isn’t an answer to your question, but - ViMusic has a radio function? Where?

I’ve heard (but not been able to verify) that it’s less secure, somehow. Although I would imagine the containerization would, somehow, mitigate this.

I’ve been trying Bazzite out for a few days, and it’s really neat. Coming from a standard distro, I like the idea that I can install pretty much anything with the combo of Flatpak, AppImages, and Distrobox. I was unable to install DaVinci Resolve on the Fedora Distrobox however, and the lack of Snaps - although I much prefer Flatpaks or AppImages - kinda sucks because it would be nice to have the Snap for Flutter…

This reminded me that I wanted to look into open source alternatives to Bionic Reader…

Marxists in authoritarian left

Which Marxists are you referring to? You’ll find a lot (likely the majority) of socialists and communists in the bottom left corner. Put a picture of Stalin up there and rewrite it as either “Tankies” or “Stalinists” and you’ll be much more accurate.

I’ve no idea what you’re referring to aside from maybe the Intel ME, but there may be a way to flash coreboot on it.

I’ve seen a lot of descriptions of Tailscale but still have no idea what exactly it does. I get that it uses Wireguard, but what differentiates it from a typical VPN setup? NAT traversal?

Do you happen to have a Matrix or Discord server set up to talk about development? I’d love to help out if I can.

Went to check out the source code for the front-end and see if there was anything I could help out with… Saw it was made with Angular.

oh no

(Congrats on integrating Fedi into it!)
