Let me stop you right there: the chances of Jellyfin going rogue are much smaller. It’s libre software. It’s GPL. It’s copyleft. We are pretty much safe.

I do use Signal. Everyone should have Signal for telephone contacts. But for the other stuff… I’d rather use a decentralized system.
Actually, I’ve tried DeltaChat, and it does seem to do everything right. It still needs some features, but it’s advancing fast and it’s already pretty usable, and device sync is amazing.
In terms of Matrix, yeah it’s not the best experience right now, but I guess it can still be fixable. XMPP has just too much technical debt and fragmentation, it seems.
Aside from that, it makes sense that it took Signal a while to get the sync feature because Signal ONLY stores messages locally. XMPP stores them on the server. I would expect to be able to access that information from anywhere. What’s the point of doing so anyway? Let me at least import the keys so I can unlock those messages. But it seems like you can’t.
Then losing all your project’s history, while also forcing you to stick to a single, unofficial (because there is no official) XMPP client for the rest of your life because there are no standardized multiplatform backups. I’m sorry but no.
You may call it a feature. I call it a huge fat bug.
That is very sad. I’ll be migrating out of XMPP. It’s intolerable that one cannot recover messages that are still there; or that even moving from one client to another implies you lose all of your history.
Yes, but also, your Taler wallet stores value too, I guess.
In any case, I wonder why Taler has not made it a point that they are (or could) be a payment system for the digital euro.
Could you expand?
It won’t be great if non-libre payment systems are still the rule.
I have seen 0 articles relating GNU Taler with the digital Euro, and I am very worried this incredible project will end nowhere. Because the digital Euro is definitely coming and that would be the moment to put Taler to work.
Arch Linux?
Last versions have added many possibilities that you are talking about.
Keep in mind that the UI needs to adapt to a dynamically resizable window, and it’s very tricky if you just “freely” put thing wherever you want.
Give them fun names but please STOP using them as official repo/distribution names.
Life would be so much easier if the repository was debian15
. Same problem when looking up Docker images.
Then you won’t have to double check everytime if you are talking about a newer/older version, etc.
This thingie fails miserably when trying to listen to covers, alternate versions and the like. Most times it just plays a different version. And I hate that.
Try PipePipe, a better fork of NewPipe
It depends, but I’d say you should definitely try it. Zigbee is so cheap (not just initial cost, but batteries also last waaasy longer and it doesn’t saturate your local network), and it’s very possible you can still build a nice mesh, maybe reusing a couple of your Wi-Fi switches somewhere else in the house if you need a Zigbee router in one of those spots.
It was never the best idea to fill your home with tiny Wi-Fi devices. Wi-Fi IoT devices are more for people who basically want to automate a couple of things, not 40. I would become mad just for the battery changes, and scared as heck I’d be toasting my brain with so many devices screaming radiowaves (and a clear slowdown of my Internet connection).
I bricked a (very annoying) router trying to update its packages, so I am really looking forward for a sane package management system instead of the absolute manual mess it was before (and seems like still is).
Didn’t you know we are moving to Delta.Chat? 😅
Definitely firewall things. Do you connect your personal phone to your work’s Wi-Fi? I would really not.
The fear of doing a major release is crazy here.
