Oh, I wasn’t aware of this. Could you share more details?

Perfect is the enemy of good. Moving to Signal would be way better than getting analysis paralysis and staying with Whatsapp.

A satirical website dubbed Malus (malice) has been making its rounds and fooling users after claiming it’s deploying AI tools to recreate open source projects from scratch with corporate-friendly licensing (my personal favorite is Emergency AGPL Removal in the footer links)

Hahaha. That’s funny. Oh, guys.

I wish there was a FOSS or more open option, but damn I’m glad I’m using Kagi.

Yes, I’ve tried SearXNG. No, I don’t think it’s a viable alternative. (yet?)

Meanwhile OnlyOffice is saving to Macroslop format by default: https://piefed.social/c/libreoffice/p/1803568/libreoffice-blasts-fake-open-source-onlyoffice-for-working-with-microsoft-to-lock-users

Hell yeah!

that doesn’t solve the issue of it being the same content, you know, because of the whole concept of the fediverse

Isn’t that a feature, not a bug? Lemmy can’t single-handedly ruin the fediverse. Piefed, MBin, can lead a different direction and Lemmy can’t hold all the content hostage.

Yeah! I was ok with Lemmy, but recently (unrelated) decided to try Piefed. I’m liking Piefed better. Lots of nice UI/UX improvements over Lemmy. Didn’t realize what I was missing.

Dropping X11 seems huge.

Just recently signed up for Qobuz. I’m planning on purchasing albums as I go along so at least I’m left with something the day I decide to quit.

My boss: more lines of code is more better! Look how many more lines of code AI wrote!

This isn’t exclusive to Open Source projects. This happens all the time with proprietary apps as well: https://killedbygoogle.com/

Even things like TV shows can get killed after 1 season.

I use AirVPN, which gives you a random static port for port forwarding.

Neat! I’m currently using GNOME Calendar and Thunderbird, but not really in love with either.
