Darcs has rebase & Pijul doesn’t which can really help ergonomics for fixups or if you do a lot of WIPs that need amending. Darcs also has a send command for easily mailing patches to others. Darcs also lets you override the diff output

That social media code forge is not the same as its underlying version control system. They are different things & we should support making folk not equate the two.

Supporting conversion with some lossy tendencies is a good idea, but maintaining compatibility will stifle innovation as al bugs & design decisions cannot be fundamentally worked around. Adjacent, I heard folks praising Forgejo for its

You can only submit a site thru a megacorporate proprietary service? Why is Microsoft GitHub involved when talking about “small web”--it is the opposite of small & indie + requires ToS & privacy concerns around accounts with that se

Great start. Now can I have an account without using the Apple/Google duopoly mobile OSs (especially since Signal doesn’t support UnifiedPush to get some of the leaked metadata for notifications from Firebase, but at least the Molly fo

The microSD doubles as a second SIM slot so no, not really. 3.5 mm jack doesn’t get in the way of anything & I use it more than 50% of my time when the screen is on so it more than makes up for the space. I don’t know many devices compe

So when the primary purpose of your blogs content is to deliver information accessibly, any user block JavaScript by default for security/privacy, any TUI browsers, & we crawlers get nothing but a blank screen—not even a noscript.

If you follow the brand fans on social medias on release, there’s always a crowd asking if they plan to bring the jack back. It could be a vocal minority, but it could very well also be your biggest brand advocate & enthusiast. When I h

In 2024, most built-in DACs on a phone costing more than $200 new (so not picking bottom-barrel parts) is going to be of similar quality from a human-perception perspective. If anything a cheap dongle is more likely to have a PoS DAC. And e

There are ways to wrap cables so they don’t tangle. Many IEMs & hearbuds come with a carrying case like a Bluetooth pair might (without fire hazard of batteries). Wrapping up cables ‘correctly’ plus keeping them stored tightly in a cont

Sony’s Xperia line is some of the smallest & lightest flagship phones while having a headphone jack and a microSD slot (& can unlock unlike Zenfones) so I don’t think these are good excuses.

Shaving so low was the excuse for removing the beloved 3.5 mm headphone jack ubiquitous most portable electronic devices. I’d rather folks had room for good headphones than a screen-sized speaker.

Build your own setup with Soupault! It has the Unix philosophy of piping output to CLI tools that do one thing well rather than locking you into a specific system. It helps glue together many other tools like a lightweight syntax renderer,

There’s been a Python issue tho where 2.x has been where a lot of apps are but is based on a 2016 version of Fx. A lot of services probably forgot that they supported KaiOS & when they heard 3.x, despite the upgrade process not being t

An alternative on Android is to hide the app from the drawer. If you have to dig thru Settings > Apps > ProprietaryTimeWaster, you will find you only use it when you really need to. That’s how I basically stopped using Facebook a few

SMS is insecure so it’s smart to not use it. The dumbphone OSs aren’t as open as I would like to see otherwise an XMPP and/or Matrix client should have anyone covered while giving them a secure & federated/self-hostable commun

I used to test out sites on Dillo a lot to see if the experience was absolutely broken, but Dillo got too rusty so I went to checking Netsurf, w3m & elinks--so a revival is encouraging, especially for underpowered systems. Shame to see

You can also turn way down the brightness & save even more power if #000 & #fff are used to get a low contrast. Seems folks forget about this adjustment as anyone using a low-contrast theme for their site makes me crank up my bright

Which if true is still a burden that prevents simple self-hosting. You can (& I did briefly) install an XMPP server on a 10-year-old smart phone with postmarketOS on your network & have a reasonable experience.

It’s not decentralized so somebody’s server has to take the hit even if the protocol is about as barebones as it gets. You’re also missing some basic features like usernames & rooms having collisions—heck usernames & rooms can’t eve

This is why we should be using decentralized XMPP servers to chat since they actually run on potato hardware unlike other chat options.
