The whole thing is just astounding. C# host process as root, iptable network rules in the container instead of outside of it, servers not validating client certificates. My oh my. How any of this made it past security and production review

Not just “you might have” but “other companies using OSS software whose development you financially support might have”. If faster SVG graphics were an impediment to Apple’s business it would likely have been prioritised and fixed by them.

Same. I’ve been using Apple products for years. The trade-offs they made were acceptable to me. That’s now over. I’ve been looking at trying something like a Pixel but with Calyx as a first step while waiting for the PinePhone and the Libre

They could've reached out to channel owners, informed them of the policy (change/reinterpretation) or reminded them of it, and ask that they change the topic. Set a clear expectation, like 48hrs to resolve it, and then act. They c

There are some projects that are also moving off IRC entirely now, which likely would've stuck around for a while longer if not for the Freenode debacle. Unfortunately some are also moving to entirely closed source platforms like Disco
