The apparent founder has replied by saying they ‘just updated today with AI’, but the comment seems to have been deleted since. Not sure whether it was supposed to be serious or ironic. Maybe the latter, since the last commit is two months

For revisiting the matter and recognising positive change within the FSF. It’s a more honest look for them. The FSFE failing to distance themselves from the mob was what made me lose some respect for them in the first place.

For day-to-day payments, GNU Taler seems like the best option by far, since it protects the customers’ anonymity. (It’s essentially like digital cash.) Unfortunately, only very few banks support it at the moment. https://www.tale

I think both questions are good to ask. Another follow-up question would be ‘how big is the damage to adoption’, since the answer could range from ‘barely perceptible’ to ‘devastating’. An answer closer to the latter would, in my opinion, m

I have the impression that many of the people who know ‘gimp’ as a slur only do because some of the others feel a need to bring it up every single time GIMP is mentioned anywhere ever.

And in a similar vein, Darcs. It unfortunately couldn’t compete with Git on performance, but the user experience is on a whole another level.

The name ‘Forgejo’ is derived from the Esperanto word ‘Forĝejo’ (a forge), but alters the spelling while leaving the original pronunciation. The result is a kind of a Frankenstein’s monster, so confusion is in order.
