CSS itself isn't a bad idea but less, scss etc. showed that it was lacking some features you desperately want and in the meantime just styling the web with "a little CSS" is not enough anymore. You have a shitload of display

Very good point indeed! That's the western filter bubble and since this trade war it's even more obvious. Typical double standards. The news tell you who the bad guys are and everyone knows that the news never lie...

Thank you very much :) But that's exactly what I dislike: for everything you wanna do on the net you're forced to register. I just can't see it anymore and instantly close stuff that behaves that way.

You post an article about open societies and then I can't access it without subscribing - LOL Just my opinion then without reading it: - in China we already see what a government can do with technologies including AI to control the beh

Exactly. Reaching a critical mass of users is also about UI/UX and it's a bummer they seem to ignore that.

Probably because OSM didn't fulfill the promise it was created with? Implementation of OSM stuff is horrible and usability as well. I LOVE free software and my privacy is very important to me - so I switched everything to self-hosted a

I see the same problem with many products nowadays. There is a whole part of the economy following this and I wonder how so many users can cope with it. Examples: - Adobe (PS, ID, AI,...) all cloud + subscription model since CS6 is gone - M

Looks very nice! On the integration side of things I'd wish for GitLab and other chats (don't like slack). I'm afraid it's not easy to test your app without Slack/G+ Account and would be grateful if the project coul

I don't even wonder. It's not just Open Source who will get nasty signs from amazon. They already have too much power for one company and the more power they'll have the less they have to abide by rules normal companies/

It's not about the majority - don't you see that? It's about the 1-3% who will f * you for being a naive sheep. That is why we can't trust these corporations and that they get more powerful everyday doesn't ease my

You gain more conscious decision making and that can help you a lot in life. Sure you could just give in and "go with the flow" because that's what majority does and it's very convenient. Also people as social beings wan

This is just not enough. I want to control the baseband and I want hardware switches on microphones, location and cameras. Also there is F-Droid (only open source apps for Android) and the Yalp Store (alternative to Google Play with faked a

Exactly. We (tinfoil hat's) don't want to go with less. Google/Apple have enough power etc. and I hope Librem5 will be here to show that it is possible to create a descent smartphone with a REAL linux (no, not android) under

Threema is proprietary and I think it's dangerous to recommend it as an alternative. Everything we trust should be open. Telegram is not perfect but better than WhatsApp. Also there is people who want convenience like history sync - it

Use Inkscape. Of course Adobe tools are the nicest concerning UI / workflow but also you'll pay for them until you die.

Customers like you don't pay that good, that's why xD Welcome to the world of marketing where you use phrases like this to attract customers who don't have a clue about what AI could be but the power to decide about money.

Open Office? Haven't heard about that in years! Now we use LibreOffice and there is already a Web UI :-) Here you are: https://www.collaboraoffice.com/code/ Just use NextCloud / Syncthing or a traditional NFS

How exactly do you think you'll get your drivers working? What do you do when the internet is crashed / your app is down? I like the data-sync & backup part of web apps - you don't have to save etc. and your whole machine

I don't know... Besides big and tech savvy companies like the big G no one seems to be able to create a decent UI with consistent UX as you'd expect it from a good desktop environment. I prefer using apps with ncurses interface to

That is strange but I heard about apple products and software getting worse every day. (users seem to become beta-testers) I have an old MBP (the one that has all the ports you'd including a standard HDMI, don't know what year) an

He is right with that. There is a few desktop environments that are quite good like: KDE (Plasma), Gnome (with enough options tuning & customizing) and maybe pantheon (see elementary OS) We'd need something more smoove and better o

Keeping documents and analyzing your business is not new and will not keep people from using it in their companies I'm afraid. At least it doesn't stop people from Using Windows and other M$ products.

That is a nice wish but the german government is not as concerned with it's peoples privacy as you may think when you read stuff like this. The opposite is true. Germany sells it's people to everyone (including foreign spies who g

It's just more honest than the stuff nations in the west do. Look at Mexican people in the USA or Muslim people in Germany. It's not subversion but difference they fear / hate / fight against. Attitudes like that come fr
