Yeah this is straight up wrong from my practical testing

From the talk: It doesn’t need MAS as that’s built in, and calls work.

This is not developed by the foundation or Element.

It’s being funneled to aligned projects like hyprland and so on

I send my grafana alerts via Matrix (selfhosted) and Email (paid service), so either way it reaches me. Has worked out well enough so far

This post misses, uh, a few important things that get mentioned in the lobsters comments: https://lobste.rs/s/bytzgl/git_3_0_s_upcoming_sha_256_default_will_be

Many languages do not have the same set of sounds as English - a stereotypical example being Japanese, which merges L and R - and so words that use those sounds are difficult to pronounce

I did (and the talk has a very high view count on youtube). The guy is a good presenter, and seems aware of his audience, and I thought his ideas for the desktop were interesting, but everything he was saying and showing was entirely full of holes that could be poked into it, and is something that was, uh, unnecessary to present.

Far more to art exists than what you see as an audience member - when you watch a film, you do not know or care about the camera the cinematographer used, but it shapes what you experience. When you go to a live music show, you can’t hear the cues and countdowns in the performer’s ears that make sure everything happens in perfect time, but they are as essential to the performance as the lights that colour the stage. And yet it is a part of the art nonetheless - something does not have to be seen to have meaning or to be part of a performance.

As someone who has performed in orchestras, hosted touring musicians, shot video onstage at festivals, livestreamed events, and worked with photographers, sound engineers and producers — Computer programming and software development is just as much art as any of them. Calling what we do engineering is a poor excuse to forgoe solidarity with our fellow creatives.

Wildly ambitious editing timeline in that chart there 😔

Developer here, this is Code By Humans

Yeah lmao, I have come here occasionally over the years. Don’t post too much tho

Oh hey RustyNova, fancy seeing you here

The whole idea of age verification is missing the point that these platforms are harmful to adults, too.

It’s not telemetry.

A lot of the people reporting issues with Matrix being slow and resource heavy are reporting issues with Synapse, which is Element’s big Python implementation. My Continuwuity instance, which is a server written in Rust, uses a fraction of a CPU and a total storage in the hundreds of megabytes. A few less features, but it has most of the ones people care about.
