How can the fediverse get some of these little buttons on various platforms with the cute little logos? I remember there was a logo for a bit. A fediverse logo not just the Mastodon one.
Would it be possible to create a 501c3 dedicated to promoting independent social media? No rule making, no software, just soft power, branding and schmoozing.
I've just created a script to auto-post #SocialCoop Loomio events to Mastodon. Is this something we want to add to @SocialCoop?

Nice! Yes, I think adding all the WG feeds would be great. We could set it up to consume an arbitrary number of feeds and query them all.
Would doing this be easier on your script or mine? I'd be happy to add it on mine.
So sorry to hear that the quite wonderful Hakai Magazine will shut down at the end of the year.

You can contribute to KDE with non-C++ code
I always see:
- people being told they can contribute to KDE with C++/QML
- people being told they can contribute to KDE without code
But I don't often see:
- people being told that they can contribute to KDE with code that is not C++
I like C++, QML, and even CMake, but you might not be interested in them or you might just not be willing to spend time learning another language, and that's perfectly fine.
In this blog post I list a few KDE projects that you might not know about that might be written in your preferred language or in a specialized format you have expertise or interest in.
By far, the most popular programming language actively used in KDE other than the expected languages is Python.
We also have stuff that would interest sysadmins (containers), packagers (snap/flatpak) and web developers.

Not everything made by KDE uses C++. This is probably obvious to some people, but itโs worth mentioning nevertheless. And I donโt mean this as just โwell duh, KDE uses QtQuick which is written with C++ and QMLโ.rabbitictranslator.com

@joostruis It's pretty well established that if you post about Lunduke on a Linux forum you're probably going to be banned. Whether or not you agree with that you shouldn't be surprised that it happened anymore.
Keep in mind it's just one Manjaro GNOME maintainer who decided that he wanted to get some attention by doing so.
The floofening of the liatris continues. It looks a little like Pepe the King Prawn, but purple.
A wide ask here so please boost: my grandfather is trying to get rid of an old business computer, and I was wondering whether any vintage computer people might want it. It was purchased for $50k from The Ultimate Corporation in the early 80s. This ran the Pick operating system, and my best guess is the hardware was originally manufactured by GE or Honeywell. It's about the size of a half-rack and currently lives in Brandon, Manitoba, Canada. It has sat covered in plastic in a chemical warehouse for the past 35 years. Where do people usually post stuff like this other than here? Thanks!
