I'm currently trying out Pachli and it seems that it will become my new main Mastodon client on Android. The interface is very clean and it works great. What I like is that I can customize the fonts and that they offer Atkinson Hyperlegible, which is a very good font in terms of readability.
Great work, @pachli!

A story about the work on the project "Moria's Race".
After 10 hours physical labor job. Everyday, for 4 hours straight. Not leaving any free time for anything else. I was making a movie project.
And then somebody tried to claim I used AI. I was angry.

Ah, finally, they’re saying the quiet parts out loud:
“Sure, the social angle of working on open source is important and often a very motivating part of the project, but in the end that’s a side benefit, not the _point_ of the project.” – Linus Torvalds
Now do you understand what I mean when I say “free” as in “freedom” versus “open” as in “open for business?”

* For public transport connections I recommend to either use Transportr https://f-droid.org/packages/de.grobox.liberario/ or #Oeffi https://f-droid.org/packages/de.schildbach.oeffi/ (way better than any information from Google or Apple navigation around Berlin).
* For maps there #OSMand https://f-droid.org/packages/net.osmand.plus/ or https://f-droid.org/en/packages/app.comaps.fdroid/

Dependency cooldowns are a nice idea, but I dare say they're a short-term solution.
They resemble the idea of avoiding poison by waiting for someone else to start eating first. That works, provided that someone actually eats first, and that the poison works fast. But eventually it leads to that awkward silence at the table when nobody wants to risk the first bite.
Adapting dependency cooldowns means basically waiting for "someone else" to notice the problem. At some point when large enough number of projects adapts them, we're going back to square one — except with an artificial few-day delay.

Audrey Tang (@au / @audreyt.org ) will be giving a talk on Friday 22 May organised with our local #FOSS / #FLOSS group, from 15:30 to 16:30 UK time, in #Oxford and online. You're welcome to join (should also be recorded)!
The topic is "Good Enough Ancestor: Software Freedom as Civic Care across Generations". It will connect the software freedom movement to Audrey's and Caroline Green's framework for local, community-governed, more caring AI systems rather than reliance on centralised systems. Tang and Green work in the local University of Oxford Institute for AI Ethics. Tang is also first Digital Minister of Taiwan, and 2025 Right Livelihood laureate. Before ministership and research, Tang was a prolific FLOSS programmer, and since has for example helped persuade Pol.is to adopt the AGPL license.
