I'm monitoring support for PostmarketOS on Fairphone models, with a mainline Linux kernel. They actually have someone working on upstreaming stuff to mainline, which is quite nice. The FP6 doesn't seem there yet [1], but the FP5 i

For an appliance, if you embed a 1 year certificate that can't be renewed, the feature will stop working correctly after a year. That's already quite short. And if it can be renewed, then it can also most probably be renewed every

And mozilla-europe.org in Europe for some reason, a long time ago at least. At a time when you'd also install spybot and ccleaner.

How current is this still? Asking as a complete noob. I don't expect Firefox's architecture to have changed much, but it's been 3 years, so it could have improved a lot since this was written, and there are things I know abou

In these setups, the issue already exists: an appliance would have to renew its SSL certificate when it expires. I believe ssl certificates should already not be used anywhere they can't be renewed.

With you in general, but in this specific case, the whole thing seems healthy: - Many companies (including competitors) are sponsoring LE, so the funding should be quite robust - These companies are probably winning from the web being more

Why or in which cases is opening a dedicated port better than publishing challenges under some /.well-known path using the standard HTTP port? (You say hijacking the HTTP port, but I don't let the ACME client take over 80/443

yeah, ok, my picture of these things was a bit simplistic, thanks for the correction and the details!

The decreasing validity time pushes for the process to be automated, and automation reduces the possible human errors. Many things need to be run and automated when running stuff, I don't understand what makes SSL certificates special

Buying closed stuff to show we want an open ecosystem? At this point, I believe the most effective ways one can help with this is: (1) advocacy - it's slow and difficult, but having people at least agree / be familiar with the ide

Your reply is dead. None of us two are doing what you say. I'm not hating anybody or anything here, and stating it even less. There must be some big misunderstanding here. The other commenter only corrected something I wrote that was t

Early stuff was designed in a network of trusty organizations (universities, labs...). Security wasn't much a concern but it was reasonable given the setting in which it was designed. This AI stuff? No excuse, it should have been desig

Absolutely. But it can still work. in a company, as an employee, you can say a tool needs to be paid and get your company to pay even if there are binaries available elsewhere. I work for a company that sells open source extensions. It woul

Please reread carefully. There's actually no disagreement here. You are being too confrontational. I understand why you could be, but you can relax here.

Thunderbird is technically rendered with GTK on Linux, but is mostly written using web tech. They are mostly not GTK, I'm don't think GTK is even involved on Windows for instance (don't know about Mac). For this reason, I dou

And they are still technically somewhat Mozilla indeed (but note this commenter wrote they fully agree with my comment)

I'm sure you can still go on without the extra services, and you can still donate if you want to. I see no reason for Thunderbird to be enshitified. Thunderbird is also not Mozilla anymore.

It will require Linux kernel 5.10 or later, which is five years old. Seems quite reasonable. (and other userapace libraries, including glibc, in more recent versions) No additional hardware requirement mentioned. The contrary would have sur
