Also, Plex email blasted a few weeks ago about how nobody can share their libraries anymore without paying for a subscription. That was the push I needed to check out Jellyfin again, and the experience ranges from “good enough” to “that’s better than Plex” for me and my buddies.

Damn, that’s unfortunate, but good to know. Thanks for the info.

This seems like a really nice tool, congrats!

Too bad there is so much focus on AI though. The UI looks nice, and templating and being able to schedule posts would be super handy, but I don’t need an AI to write things for me. I find that using AI is ethically icky anyhow; I’d rather not have it in any of the tools I use.

Is it possible to disable all the AI features when using Postiz? Like, a boolean setting in the deployment configs would be great.

The phrase “for profit” is probably referring to the corporation’s structure. It isn’t related to whether the corporation is currently profitable.

Dunno if it would meet your needs, but I’ve been using Input Remapper for binding macros to various key presses and mouse buttons under Wayland. It does prompt for root access, but it’s a GUI. It supports any input method, as far as I can tell. It even supports my tablet.

I use it to bind stuff like hold(key(BTN_LEFT).wait(100)) to some button to repeatedly left click while I’m holding that button down.

Your website is refreshingly simple and also manages to be unique looking. I like it!

Boards as in breadboards, I guess. That title assumes the reader will have a certain context.

I got excited thinking it was about managing board activity for nonprofits formed by developers.

Still, seems like a nice tool for people who do breadboarding!

OBS could do that, I suppose. Add a screen capture source, and place a color source behind it sized 10px larger than the screen capture rect. Hit record.

right click menu icons

I think they might be referring to icons next to menu items in the right click menu.

I think those icons can be handy sometimes, but I find them to be massively overused in KDE especially, to the point that it feels visually overwhelming sometimes. Having zero icons at all in GNOME might be the other extreme, but I appreciate how clean it looks.

Blender using icons strategically to visually group related items is probably the best of both worlds.

Are there rust haters? I guess there must be, but I don’t think I’ve run across that so much as the “everything ever made must be rewritten in rust” crowd, and then everyone else who doesn’t much care what language is used as long as it works.

Well this is bound to be controversial, to say the least. GNOME and systemd are two pieces of software that attract very polarized opinions.

I’m interested to see how this evolves. The planned session restore feature sounds nice. With the Wayland changes coming too, GNOME 50 should be a big deal, one way or another.

We went ahead and disabled the X11 session by default and from now on it needs to be explicitly enabled when building the affected modules. (gnome-session, GDM, mutter/gnome-shell).

Aside from a simple flag change and a recompile before Canonical adds the packages to their repo, it doesn’t sound like this will affect Ubuntu at all. They probably already do this anyway to add their own little patches.

The most likely scenario is that all the X11 session code stays disabled by default for 49 with a planned removal for GNOME 50.

GNOME 50 is when Canonical will truly need to either move to Wayland or do something else.

Seems fairly reasonable of a timeline from the GNOME team, IMO.

It’s not defeatism

that’s how the system works

So, it’s not defeatism, you’re just arguing for maintaining the status quo? If that’s not defeatism in the face of a system that is mass arresting people, then what is it? What exactly is your point?

Edit: ah, just noticed that you are a moderator of [email protected]. Maybe you really do want to uphold the status quo of Trump’s directives.

The public out there on the streets of LA this weekend are certainly doing substantial things. Why the defeatism? Go join them and help.

People need to stop posting content to YouTube. Quit giving them new leverage.

Even the linked article whines about how they don’t want to use Peertube because “the audience for the content is 100x smaller” but that’s at least partly a self fulfilling situation. Of course they aren’t going to have a large audience on Peertube when they don’t post anything there. Mirror your old content there. Upload new content there instead. Advertise your Peertube channel instead of YouTube.

There’s not going to magically be a huge audience out of nowhere on alternative platforms, it takes content creators to migrate first.

I used to use Pano for that, but it’s extension page hasn’t been updated since GNOME 45, so I switched to Clipboard History instead. It’s not quite as pretty (just a normal popup menu, no previews) but it is actually nicer to use, in my opinion.

Both options can be bound to Super+V, that’s exactly the key combo I use for it.

Sorry that it is not working for you, and it definitely worth people keeping in mind that issues can happen, but it is not quite so binary as “don’t use GNOME if you have Nvidia”.

Plenty of people use Nvidia and GNOME together successfully. I have an Nvidia 2070 RTX and it works very well with GNOME on Fedora Workstation. I’ve never even had to install anything or mess with settings, it just worked automatically.

Is it? I didn’t tick that box when I made the post, but maybe the app I’m using (Raccoon) has a bug.

I’ve been enjoying novelWriter for a few months now.

It’s FOSS, works on every OS, and is created by a writer who was frustrated with the other options available. She and another writer co-designed it initially, and there’s a respectably sized community built up around it at this point. It’s got the kinds of features that writers actually need, and avoids bloat. So they say, and in my experience that’s certainly been the case.

Additionally, why does age have anything to do with any of these questions? This feels like it was made by someone who doesn’t have much experience with other humans and is unaware of the massive variety of opinions and attitudes among all age groups.
