@lanodan @cas well I would argue that Android's kernel cant be called Linux anymore since adding 1M+ lines of patches kinda makes it more like a Linux-similar kernel

@musl patched in Alpine :)

@phosh For #postmarketOS folks, you can try out the new release candidate with `mrtest upgrade -a 79741` and report back feedback. 🥰

okay, but instead of improving the protocol they fork synapse to rewrite some parts in rust to improve the performance of the server.

i dont get it.

matrix feels like its becoming kinda a dead end, which is so fucking sad.

@ncopa can you just patch the CVEs?

@ncopa ah damn. why didnt they just created more patch releases for older releases

gitlab, why do you always have to spam. this is so annoying, just stop!

Please just use https://editorconfig.org/. we shoudn't live in a world, where we still have to care about how many spaces we use or if we use tabs.

@pj @nmeum @khm @lanodan i know, but i think Alpine is never abandoning busybox. that simply wouldn't work

@lanodan @nmeum @khm yes i think chimerautils would be interesting, but in the end is too much work due to inconsitencies

utils-std sounds promising, i'll keep an eye on that. thanks for developing this!

@dansup @nlnet @loops if i may ask, why not already?

@q66 @lanodan @domi this would be a great shitpost

@dansup leader sounds a bit harsh

@jwz @ross did you consider a LTS version for multiple-years-long-supported distros?

@lanodan @psykose thats not great at all

@dalias oh $219 is really good! got mine some years ago for about 450 euros

@janvlug *russion contributors from companies activly supporting the russian war

@dansup isnt the goal of the fediverse, to exactly NOT have a single instance where everyone has a account on?

if I would've done it, the platform would be open source with the first commit. and everyone who wants to can host a instance

@dansup this here kinda looks like you're trying to establish a monopol instance with a (at this point) propriertary server.

is that any different from tiktok and all these other tech giants?

im sure im missing something here? (not trying to hate, just trying to understand it :)
