• Disputes can be brought to tribunal
• Everyone of full age and sound mind gets a vote
• Previous tribunal decisions can be applied without voting again if the dispute is similar enough

Basically some sort of democratic case law

“I was told … the last few were amazing”

Because the writer changed?

I will probably never catch up with the current writing of the Wandering Inn, but I can always read a few chapters here and there. It’s quite easy for me to put down and pick up in between other reading. Reading on Kindle probably makes it easier

The last three because Brandon Sanderson wrote them?

Will the components still come from China?

Quite far:

• https://forgefed.org/

I hope it is going to be ok. Automattic has been involved with matrix before. Time will tell, but I’m more hopeful than afraid.

You’re sure you’re talking about OnlyOffice, and not OpenOffice. OpenOffice and LibreOffice are related. OnlyOffice is not.

Forget about docker. Run caddy or some similar webserver that is a single file next to the assets to serve.

Element is running out of money. I think they would keep the old license if other commercial matrix-based projects would contribute developers or money.

I would also welcome decent micropayments (maybe digieuro?), so that you wouldn’t need to subscribe, but could pay 0.045€ for something without it being unfeasible because of fixed transaction costs.

My point exactly. Why do we get ads on something we pay for with money?

Linux is quite lightweight. Pick a distro that doesn’t run a lot of stuff by default. OpenBSD only runs sshd exposed to the network, AFAIR. Debian probably does the same. But really, the lightness comes from what isn’t running. NixOS, fedora, rocky, alpine are all decent alternatives.

I can only approve of people paying for services they use. It isn’t free to run. But there are several things to consider:

• $1/year is very low, transaction fees for accepting that amount of money are high
• It’s a low price for successful bots
• Doesn’t remove ads (take money from subscribers or advertisers, not both, also print media)
• Doesn’t give you better control over your experience. The paying customer should be the one being listened to
• This is Elon Musk’s twitter we’re talking about, how long until he changes his mind again?

Another surge on mastodon? Countries, cities, public organisations should put up their own mastodon like EU, BBC and Germany have.

Yes, because for large public rooms it makes no sense as anyone can leak the message contents anyway and e2ee is expensive for large rooms.

• Flatness. UI controls need to be recognizable.
• Theming/styling. A button should look like button.
• Lack of menus. Discoverability is poor if you don’t have a list of things in an obvious place.
• Gestures. Lack of discoverability.
• Information density. I don’t care about huge margins and filler pictures. Content shouldn’t be crammed, but space should be used efficiently.
• Mobile first. Especially if mobile use is only a fraction of actual use. Or maybe even if it is the majority of users, but not majority of use (operations, hours).
• Simplicity. Make simple things simple, but hard things possible. Removing features can make your software useless.

Paper bags are worse, except maybe for microplastics. But they take more resources to create, and aren’t as recyclable as good plastic bags. You can use a canvas bag, but that takes even more resources to create. So you have to use the same canvas bag for years
