Unless the device is malfunctioning or otherwise damaged in a meaningful way, I don't see why it would be time for new a laptop, after only 3 years. I bought mine with the prospect of it lasting at least 6 years (and it's going st

First of all, congratulations on building another option for OSS funding! Now onto the questions: How does Polar compare to other open-centric platforms, such as OpenCollective? The latter has some great transparency features, are you plann

UnifiedPush distributors such as ntfy.sh seem to work pretty well, in my experience. They don't seem to affect battery life much (at least according to system graphs) and they work well.

This. An e-mail based workflow is much better for non-developers because you don't really need to create an account and faff around with an unfamilar plaform, it's just e-mail. The issue then becomes using a good local VCS UI an

I've been wanting to try something like that with neovim's remote features, but haven't found the time. Has someone attempted this? If so, how successful was it? I've always been a big user of powerful laptops because I

I've found multiple features and motions that do not work the same as in (neo)vim and end up breaking my flow a bit. However, I have to agree it is probably the best vim plugin I've seen anywhere, and is life saviour for me :)

mCaptcha is interesting, but I wonder what its energy impact would be on a sufficiently large deployment, e.g imagine we replaced all reCAPTCHAs with mCaptcha.

I'm not quite sure either, but AV1 seems to be the free format alternative to HEVC. However, it lacks the level of hardware support the latter has achieved, which is very much relevant for TVs and such, seeing as software decoding (of

It looks like it uses Qt under the hood, so it likely leverages it. Haven't tried yet though.

You can use their cloud, but if you're technical you can also self-host a server instance. In that case, it's usually recommend to stay way from the complicated official implementation and instead pick vaultwarden, like another co

I'm not sure I understand what you're describing but I believe Plasma and Dolphin work like that. If you drag and drop a file into a program it will select that file (if it expects a dropped file) or paste the path. You can also d

I'd say they use a rolling release distro like Arch or similar, where packages are updated very often. In fact, I believe Arch even has a tool to seamlessly manage multiple Java installations.

Like the other commenter said, Matrix is very extensible, as you can just send custom events as you wish. There's also lots of emerging non-IM platforms built on top of Matrix, like collaborative whiteboards, virtual rooms, embeddable

Matrix 2.0 will put an end to that trait plaguing the protocol's viability. With the new "sliding" sync, clients will be able to fetch stuff much more efficiently (and more akin to Discord's API, for example) than before
