Potwierdzam, że Nextcloud Tasks jest trochę zbyt skomplikowane momentami, brakuje rozsądniejszych ustawień domyślnych.

NATOMIAST rozwija się, łatwo postawić, jeśli z innego powodu korzysta się z Nextclouda i jak na razie to najlepsze co znalazłem #FOSS

Super, że zrobiłeś ten przegląd. Bardzo przydatna rzecz dla kogoś, kto stara się zbudować sobie ekosystem z daleka od big tech.

Auf meinem Schreibtisch steht eine vollständige Cloud.
Kleiner als ein Taschenbuch, leiser als der Lüfter neben dir, sparsamer als eine Glühbirne. Kein Abo, keine fremde Cloud, keine Blackbox. Sie gehört mir.

Möglich macht das eine Architektur, die erwachsen geworden ist: ARM, energieeffizient, leise. Dazu eine schlanke, quelloffene Software aus Berlin @OpenCloud@opencloud.eu , die die Daten dort lässt, wo man sie hinlegt.

Ein neuer Artikel über ARM, den aus den Fugen geratenen Speichermarkt, die Freiheit, sich selbst auszusperren, und ein Mini-Rechenzentrum, das aussehen will wie ein kleines Gebäude.

Viel Spass beim Lesen!

Whoever fixed the #nixos calamares installer upstream to actually show progress (instead of just hanging out at 46% forever), THANK YOU!

The #nixbook installer has inherited this as well, and makes me gleefully happy!

Today I learned that there are some proprietary components in #Linux #distros. I learned the deep stuff like firmware is no escape. But there are some distros who will include #proprietary stuff for workflow.

I checked my #Mint and there was nothing, or at least the check told me, I'm as #FOSS as if I'd be on #Debian. This made me relax a bit.

But also learned that Debian gives a priority to Foss stuff more than any distro out there. That's a nice thing to know.

RE: https://facts.computer/@computer/116527198696248539

and most if not all #foss software will either get contributions from people you don't like, money from places you don't like, sponsors from companies you don't like, or will go in a direction you don't agree with. I guess we can't win

In March #Heliboard asked people to help gather gesture data to implement a #FOSS alternative to the closed gesture typing library Heliboard currently relies on. Since then over 700.000(!) examples were submitted. The new 4.0 release includes opt-in background data gathering in the hopes to collect 2 million examples by November. If you wish to contribute see @theeclecticdyslexic 's post https://mstdn.social/@theeclecticdyslexic/116897291480776538. They've also made an explainer video on how privacy is preserved.

I've been running Linux since 1993 and to this day, I'm still learning. It's what I love so much about running Linux and FOSS. I can't even imagine what it would be like to be stuck running only a proprietary OS or apps.

I've also been running FreeBSD on and off for years, but that's about to change to running FreeBSD daily. Not replacing Linux, but running it along with Linux.

Sorry, just a simple appreciation post for FOSS, all the projects, and most importantly, all of the folks who devote their time to developing this wonderful software.

What can we do to protect ourselves against #chatcontrol? Politicians and governments will not solve this.They are all about #control and power. Begging them is a waste of time and dignity.

Must it be a technological change? A social one? What do we do?

More #foss? More #encryption? A new #internet? #decentralization? How can we help?

Boost for reach, please. I am from a small #fedi instance ;)

I don't know what will be my journey with #Linux #distros in the future. As a new comer, I'm using #Linuxmint. I'm obsessed with #FOSS and Linux now. I feel I'll be exploring new distros for the sake of learning, learning about computers, and how things work, it is rich.

But eventually, I feel I'd settle on something that works, as I need to be productive and take care of my work/job. So eventually, I see myself going back to Mint or even something similar. Going back to a distro that'll stay out of my way, let me focus on my work, something reliable and stable.

Good morning! It's been a few days of work, but happily I think these are very promising results. My assembler is now able to assemble a good part of IA-64 / AMD64 / x86_64 code and run simple programmes calling the Linux kernel directly, no C library involved, which accounts for the performance difference in the first rough benchmark (unsophisticated but directionally right).

This assembler architecture is an extension improving on the zenas Z80 assembler, so it's likely that a future version will fold zenas into the new architecture, and the new unified assembler will target both architectures (initially Z80 and AMD64).

The parts it still can't assemble: legacy i386 modes, fpu x87, SSE, SIMD instructions. It's possible that I may never go through the hassle of implementing i386. The payoff of implementing ARM64 next is much more important I think (that opens a few other modern platforms, including the M1 and Raspberry Pi).

In the coming months, ironing out the assembler wrinkles, completing ELF64, Mach-O, and PE32 output, it starts to look like I might be able to make ual generate native binaries directly, adding a new ual-zenas backend. Probably Linux-only sometime by the end of the year, and the rest sometime in 2027.

Hi! 👋

I'm a #music producer with a strong passion for #photography. Music‑wise I bend towards #EDM, while photography stretches from drone/aerial shots to architecture and everyday stills.

A big believer in #privacy, digital independence, and owning your own space online, powered by #FOSS and #Linux.

I self-host my own corner of the internet via YunoHost.
It's part of my commitment to decentralization and taking control of my digital footprint.

When I'm not crafting electronic noise or framing pixels, I'm reading terms and conditions of whatever just to feel something. 😁

Also, I get paid to talk. Not paid a lot, mind you—I just talk a lot.

Feel free to connect! ✨

🤩 5.000 User sind bereits auf @nextcloud umgestellt, meldet die Regierung von Mecklenburg-Vorpommern. 50.000 sollen es werden

"Der Umstieg von Microsoft Sharepoint ist schrittweise und ohne Reibungs- und Datenverluste für die Beschäftigten abgeschlossen worden. Gemeinsam mit der DVZ M-V haben wir eine Plattform aufgebaut, die heute zuverlässig läuft und sich Schritt für Schritt erweitert wird", sagt Marco Anschütz, CIO des Landes.

I had no idea that Xournal++ had geometry tools. I discovered the compass and the speed square while doing some idle sketching for an upcoming coffee table build on the PineNote! This is the appropriate level of "CAD" for me at this stage of the build, graph paper with a protractor but super easy copy paste to visualize various combinations.

This is open hardware running free and open source software, I love this so much!

Hallo #Berlin #Fediverse - ein kleiner Bastel-Hilferuf - hat wer von euch einen MQ3 Alkoholsensor übrig?
Für unsere ORWOhaus Festival Kunstinstallation brauchen wir einen MQ3 Alkoholsensor, denn unserer ist leider gerade durchgebrannt und bei Segor haben sie ihn nicht vorrätig, Amazon kann erst nach dem Festival liefern :(

Mutmaßlich ist der LM391 auf dem MQ3 Board durch, ich kann ihn selbst leider nicht tauschen.

This is the kind of dumb assessment bred by the #BuyEuropean narrative:

The #DigitalMarketsAct led to the #Mozilla #Firefox browser to gain 6 million EU users and we whine about it not being "European."

And no need to reply how terrible Mozilla's decision often are, I'm aware. But they currently maintain the only reasonably successful alternative engine to #BigTech and it's #FOSS. Of course this should be celebrated.

Does anyone have a backup alternative to Duplicacy?

I don't think the repo is maintained anymore

In particular, I want:
- open source. Works on linux
- de-duplication of files
- ideally, de-duplication support for files across multiple machines
- I just want a cli. GUI is unnecessary
- can connect to Backblaze B2, and uses the modern API
- An anti-LLM policy

FreeBSD 15 + CDE is probably the closest you can get to sitting in front of a high-end UNIX workstation without owning a time machine.

Running Common Desktop Environment in 2026 feels strangely refreshing. No blur effects, no Electron, no notifications fighting for attention, No ai written code, just Motif, terminals, man pages, and a desktop paradigm that was already mature before I was born.

Current setup: • FreeBSD 15.0-RELEASE • CDE • dtwm • bhyve • Motif everywhere

Today’s activity: reading bhyve(4) manuals and pretending I'm a UNIX admin in 1996.
