The Deranged Scene at a 24-Hour Nonstop Marathon That Takes Place on One Tiny, Maddening Track
At the Dawn to Dusk to Dawn race, it's not about who wins. It's about who survives.Stephen Lurie (Slate)
It looks like the current, tenuous consensus among coop members is to treat Meta as a threat and defederate for now, drafting a set of terms that we expect Meta to meet in order for us to consider federation at all.
Not to spam, but I've been working towards drafting a "Federation Charter" of sorts that outlines the terms for federating with other servers and establishes a code to hold ourselves to. It's a rough draft and unfinished, but I'd invite folks to take a look:
codeberg.org/fenndev/federatio…
federation-charter
A rough draft Charter intended to establish open standards and protocols for Fediverse instances and facilitate cooperation.Codeberg.org
I like this approach. I think the key is building a network of instances that endorse some such set of principles and practices.
Maybe time for a gathering of the democratically-run instances?
I can't commit to organizing this summer/fall but I'll participate in anything on the Loomio in preparation for something
@fenndev are you in that subgroup on Loomio? There is a bot in it that will also send messages over matrix so sharing the charter you have been working in in a thread may be a good way to get some new eyes over it

BSDs are important to the Internet. Some enterprises do use it for there servers, the main one being Netflix.
Its license did help BSDs to grow. It allowed company like Apple, Sony or Nintendo to base their OS on it, not that they contribute back.
Also, most BSDs project have clear structure and goals. The whole OS is designed by one group of person with specific goals in mind. They have a much more developed software engineering culture.

Ever since doing the initial completion support in #phosh 's osk-stub I wanted to add a generic "unix pipe" like completer. phosh-osk-stub would feed the program preedit on stdin and read the completions from the program's stdout.
That is there now and with that and some more changes I can use @zachdecook 's #swipeGuess to do swipe like typing. To be clear: all the hard work is done by swipeGuess, phosh-osk-stub just piggy backs on it:

"Ryan also emphasized how the students’ relationships with failure would evolve over time. “He said that the time it takes for you to recover from a failure will shorten over time, and he couldn’t be more right,” says Abebayehu."
