   If I try again to "convert" non technical people around me, I'll try to document properly what is wrong in the UX and experience. (but maybe it will all be fixed)

   I will give conduit another look if I ever try to setup a server again. I am quite active in the rust community and maybe I could also participate.

   Last time I checked critical features were not supported, like read receipts.

   I didn't whitelist anything, maybe that was a source for issue. > Disagree. Sure, UX can be improved, but compromising here defeats the purpose of why we’re doing this in the first place. The thing is, as I ran my own server in my o

   I discontinued the server 2 months ago, and I operated the server for about 2 years.

   I tried to adopt matrix for our small business and here is summary of my experience. - Synapse is very resource hungry even for a small server - Synapse creates a gazillion of TCP connection and keep them open, it was a real problem for my

   As we are discussing the delicate art of slang :) I'll add this video [1] which is a popular meme around "We slaps our balls" in french. There is also the gorgeous expression "On s'en tamponne le coquillard" [2

   I am wondering: - Would a GPS tracker placed at this position be able to catch the GPS signal? If I understand it correctly, an airtag communicate via bluetooth and would get the location from a phone in range? - An airtag do not require a

   I use a similar setup with a hotkey, but the downside is that my monitors take about 5 seconds to switch, which in my case is a serious slow down. I do not know if other monitors would be faster. I looked at KVM that support high resolution

    I still encounter websites/UI that are laggy on my high end workstation, I cannot image how unusable those websites would be on a low end laptop. The funny thing is, most of the time those websites have no complex requirements, it&#x27

    Yeah, that is one explanation. But the magewell products are expensive and there have good linux support (only reason why I picked them), which is usually not found in cheap chinese products (even if I know magewell is chinese). I thought a

    Lab grade devices (like products from totalphase) that can do that properly are usually very expensive (like $20k). But there are some cheap boards around that might work (no guarantee): https://www.tindie.com/products/

    My editor (vim) will warn me with a loud visual red block for any non ascii char outside a string literal. But I do not think that is enough. Compiler and interpreter must be more strict.

    That's cheap. We really underestimate the costs of running in the cloud.

    Yes I could do that, but it is a big hassle. But yeah, it provides discoverability.

    Thank you for the suggestions. I am looking more for "personal" donation rather than "project" donation. I realize it might be harder to sponsor an individual rather than a project.

    Well, I do realize I might be way over reacting, but: https://github.com/kuon/WhyILeftGithub It is a general feeling of putting everything in the same basket.

    I do not want to hijack this thread or promote myself, but maybe you could suggest something. I realized I was working up to 50% on open source projects, and I wanted to accept sponsoring, but I moved away from github (which is surely a ter

    I agree, but the new S-Expr based format means it is way easier to manipulate the files, and maybe we can see third party solutions to fill this gap (at least for now).

    Signal is suggested, but it requires a mobile phone, which is not an option for me. That's why I use matrix, but I fear it will not catch on enough, and email will be the only option people will have to contact me. But I somehow agree

    This is the gist of it. I do not agree with OSI definition of open source but I won't argue about it here. There are many OSI approved licenses with restrictions on use, like "your software must also be open source" or "

    I do. But as long as the repository is public, copilot will feed on it. At least this is what I understood.

    I've given thousands of hours to open source projects, I really think open source is a pillar of modern society. So you would think I am all for something like copilot, but no. At first I thought this was a great feature, because easie

    I really liked Grafana, and I was using it for my personal servers monitoring, using collectd and InfluxDB, but recent updates changed everything, collectd became second class citizen with InfluxDB, and I was unable to replicate my queries
