@judell Yes, yes, yes! That's exactly the kind of intervention I'm interested in. How can we shift the practice of things from "do the thinking for you" to "help you do the thinking"?






Beaver city-builder Timberborn confirmed for launch on March 5 gamingonlinux.com/2026/02/beav…

Please @nextcloud you need to assign more developers to the Android app! The Auto-upload feature is severely broken for the past weeks and there are hundreds of open issues regardings this, but apparently only a single developer assigned to it. And every release makes it worse..

Congratulations @nextcloud !

I had to lookup what @dpgalliance was and found it.. 🙂😉

Big news for open source & digital sovereignty 🚨

Nextcloud has been officially recognized by the @dpgalliance as a Digital Public Good.

Another strong signal that online collaboration doesn’t have to mean giving up user control or data sovereignty. 💪

From own experience, small tip for anybody upgrading #nextcloud and seeing the process stuck in the last step (updating database schema):

It is *really* slow, even for a small / vanilla instance, and does not provide adequate warning to that effect.

Let it run for hours (overnight) before assuming the installation is broken 🤦 and embarking on time-consuming reinstalls...

in reply to Open Risk

I have NC servers running on Cloudron and YunoHost, and in neither case have I experienced anything like the issues that seem to come up regularly for manual deployments.



Rewrite complete. ✅

We’re looking forward to showcasing our major update to Nextcloud’s core during our next release:

ADA, a new data access engine that takes the already strong scalability of Nextcloud to the next level.

➡️ ADA stands for Accelerated Direct Access, but it’s also a homage to Ada Lovelace.

And this got us thinking … Which computer engineering pioneer do you admire most?

Amelia and I got to visit the Royal Museum of Fine Arts in Brussels--specifically the old masters collection--and it was fascinating. Didn't have nearly enough time to see everything, only a couple of rooms before closing time. They don't prepare you for how large these paintings are in real life.

I really agree .. fortunately I visited at an early hour, so had more time. It is the same as the Uffizi gallery in Florens, you have to put a whole day aside

RE: mastodon.social/@staff/1160152…

The live feed was pretty much useless since...forever. A live feed on this type of social media just doesn't really work.

Funny to think back, the Mastodon Social admins emailed me a complaint years ago that our news auto-posts were set to public and showed up in the live feed (so what??). They gave me a stern warning on setting them unlisted back then. Stupid.


RE: mastodon.social/@staff/1158499…

As previously announced, live feeds are now disabled on our servers by default.

We don't think they provide a good experience on our server, but feel free to reach out to us if you'd like to still see them.


in reply to Liam @ GamingOnLinux 🐧🎮

I actually kinda like the live feeds feature, on big servers it must be horrible, but in small servers is a good way to see your "local community".
in reply to Antimundo

@antimundo yes, for small focused communities it makes sense but not for big stuff like this which is the point

in reply to It's FOSS

with Windows 11 Linux has definitely seen a lot more up take. But there's also a lot of people that have been using Linux for years now migrating to FreeBSD. Although not a Linux Distro, FreeBSD seems to have full embraced this and is another FOSS OS that is looking at a lot of growth over the coming years.



Folks, it's a crime to put undocumented code on my own website on the internet?

Perhaps this is the kind of response I should expect from someone that sends cold emails titled "Just so you know". LOL
