@mzagaja@mastodon.social @codinghorror@infosec.exchange @bovaz@misskey.social @mjg59@nondeterministic.computer @jwz@mastodon.social Nah, there were fine RSS user experiences. Jeff can't make a blanket statement like that and also say if one disagrees with it that they're delusional. That's just bullshit. Then again, maybe he was only using OSX.

@ilpianista@functional.cafe @rubdos@mastodon.social SeaPrint is the best printing app on any platform for me. No fuss, just works.

I send stuff specifically to my #SailfishOS phone to print it with SeaPrint.

I love the UX of CargoDock and wish it would support more cloud services (perhaps using rclone?).

And Ruben you forgot Multipos 😉

(Just kidding, I'm hoping to release a solid Qt6 version soon.)

@agnes007@mastodon.social How about hiring another engineer for #SailfishOS 😉 I'm running a community port (with Android support but don't tell anyone) on the FP5 and it needs just a bit of work to be a serious "daily driver" alternative to Jolla's official Xperia 10 III phone.

@ChristianRiegel @ocdtrekkie @alienghic @cwebber Most people already don't know what a directory tree is, in a large part thanks to Apple. IMHO this is fundamental computer knowledge that should be taught at grade school level, maybe early high school. edit: Then again @MichaelTBacon makes a good point here: https://social.coop/@MichaelTBacon/116349207112344811 Perhaps it's more about being aware of where you store files and that one has agency in that action that should be taught.

Hold on to the feeling of violation, and recognize how much that feeling still applies even when those violations are harder to see?

@andrewnez@mastodon.social That's a nice conundrum: Declare a tight version range and get hit by vulnerabilities because new versions are not downloaded; Or accept (patch) updates and get hit because a vulnerable update is downloaded (f.e. due to a supply chain attack).

@rooster@beige.party Depends on your usage but a lot of content will still be readable, sometimes even better because no blocks or redirects.

I use @noscript@mastodon.social to selectively make sites that don't work without JS usable (while avoiding turning on tracking).

@davidgerard@circumstances.run @gdupont@framapiaf.org @ploum@mamot.fr The EU should fork it and make it their official "websites should work on this" browser if they ever get their head out of their asses and stop being cowards. Same for Linux mobile phones (of which #SailfishOS is the only serious option for now).
