#writers and #authors , do you know of any #opensource solutions to help plan and write a novel? I’ve tried Joplin and like it but it’s not the most streamlined. I’m looking for something minimal (like Vim) but that is available on either web, iOS/iPadOS, Linux, Windows.

MuseScore is an awesome program (https://musescore.org). But avoid the sinking sands of the service set up on musescore.com domain, made by the company that acquired both MuseScore and Audacity in recent years.

This stuff is a racket. I'd advise to install MuseScore from your Linux distribution's repository and never visit any websites associated with it.

MuseGroup's monetization schemes are vile.

A list of recent hostile moves by #Google's #Chrome team; handy for sharing with your entourage, to explain why they should stop using #Chromium / #GoogleChrome and use #Firefox or #Epiphany as their main #web #browser :

* The "Manifest v3" sabotage of content blocking extensions: https://www.theverge.com/2022/6/10/23131029/mozilla-ad-blocking-firefox-google-chrome-privacy-manifest-v3-web-request
* The attempted sabotage of #JPEGXL: https://www.cnet.com/tech/computing/chrome-banishes-jpeg-xl-photo-format-that-could-save-phone-space/

"Open Source" can't just be about using the goodwill of a very desirable common label for software goods. It's an integral part of keeping the developer ecosystem healthy.

And "healthy" can't only be about profitability for companies.

It’s a very interesting time to be in open source. Open source zealots need to realize that open source needs to be reinvented for the new platform architecture, and web 2.0 companies need to remember that open source isn’t just goodwill, but an integral part of keeping the developer ecosystem healthy. And everyone needs to experiment with new models, and not believe that the story has already been written.


"These repositories are available under the same BSL license as Sentry’s core repos."

So... It will *become* open source... eventually... in about 4 years or so.

Why create new software when you can reuse what other governments have created?

#PublicCode is tech built with #opensource, backed by #publicmoney, benefiting the public + the policy and guidance for reuse.

See how others have been doing just that https://podcast.publiccode.net/
Four birds of the same breed, slightly modified with respective tags: initial code, adapted, reused, modified. Body text reads: Public code is tech built with open source software, backed by public money, benefiting the public + the policy and guidance for reuse.

⚠️ Hey #MastoAdmin FYI there is a Mastodon security update apparently coming 6 July.

EDIT: Interestingly, the same day #Facebook #Threads launches. Hmm... 🤔

The reason you probably didn't know about it, is because it was only announced* behind a proprietary centralized paywalled garden. (Not Twitter, but the same effect.)

Be ready.

* This is not a recommended way to run an #OpenSource community.

This #osspodcast episode @kurtseifried and I discuss the #RedHat news

The reality is they're still better than a lot of companies claiming to do #OpenSource but it feels like a betrayal because they were the hero of open source for so long

Szukam poradnika dla początkujących, którzy chcieliby włączyć się w rozwój otwartego oprogramowania.

Przydałoby się, żeby obejmował zarówno stronę techniczną (obsługa gita, klonowanie repo, wysyłanie zmian itd.) jak i etykietę: co wypada, a na co trzeba uważać, żeby nie podpaść devom.

Znacie coś takiego?

To expand the #Thunderbird experience to Android and iOS. And to do it all transparently, guided by the values of free and #OpenSource software.

Last year, our donors gave us a clear signal that they believe in that mission, too!

#AskFedi is there a contemporary suite or set of plays-nice #opensource community / collaboration tools that can cover discussion (threaded boards), chat, and wiki-like that can share credentials and/or work from a single auth provider, either one of the three or an external auth source? Paid/managed preferred. #ActivityPub aware preferred.

I'm tempted to consider a Wordpress kludge extraordinaire.

Would need to cover say 1,000 accounts, mostly public, some staff.
