Continued work today on my @WPEWebKit integration in #Emacs :)

Things have been coming together nicely, except for the unfortunate disappearance of the FPS counter (#skia doesn’t have it yet).

Just posted my first big patch to GNU #guix ! It allows anyone to generate portable AppImages from packages in the repository :)
https://issues.guix.gnu.org/73842

@ekaitz_zarraga @civodul I would contribute to guile but it seems like none of the 7 bugs this month have received a reply, not very welcoming :/

Furthermore, contributing to a new project involves many questions and asking them on e-mail or IRC feels like sending a message bottle down a dark pit, and this also goes for #guix.

I've seen projects be so much easier to get into: projects with associated discord servers are a huge success in this way. Providing a way for newcomers to actually chat with other users and maintainers in a friendly and casual manner.

In my experience, e-mail and IRC are extremely unwelcoming technologies to use.

@ekaitz_zarraga @civodul The simple fact that you have to keep your IRC client open to receive messages makes it the only messaging app where you don't receive the messages. And e-mail is the only one where messages might go anywhere if you don't re-read your headers a bajillion times.

@ekaitz_zarraga @civodul Is Guile mostly C or is it booststrapped ?

@futurile @soupglasses Guix is a library
"However, when the interpreter is extended to provide “bindings” to other facilities (often, but not necessarily, libraries), the interpreted program is effectively linked to the facilities it uses through these bindings. So if these facilities are released under the GPL, the interpreted program that uses them must be released in a GPL-compatible way. "

@civodul Agreed about EXWM, this is why I use GNOME: the reliability and touch controls make for a great experience even if its at the cost of customization.
