Right now my "default" is to go to GitHub, and then maybe GitLab and Codeberg...but that leaves out all the other hosts out there. Once #ForgeFed happens we'll need it even more :fedi:
(By the way, I say "git" because that's where most code is, but if other kinds of repos are supported, even better! 🔍 )
If it's anything like it used to be, it's better than Squarespace and its ilk because you can directly upload your pure, hand-coded HTML instead of going through all those autogenerative contraptions they have nowadays 🧶
#App developers, is there an easy way to securely share sensitive data (eg. login credentials) locally between two #apps on the same device? And if not, what about non-sensitive data (like how the #SimpleApps or whatever they're called now share themes)? 🔏
Basically it's a family of apps with a common login and we're trying to avoid the user having to log in separately on each one. We're using #Capacitor, if that matters ⚙️
Is there a way to make #GNOME automatically change the theme, both for ordinary and "legacy" apps, along with the #DarkMode toggle?
My theme has two variants for dark and light, but I have to manually go and change it in GNOME Tweaks every time I want to switch, making the Shell's "dark mode" toggle somewhat redundant
Different watch companies would have different proprietary ways of measuring time, and you wouldn't be able to properly schedule meetings unless you had the same brand of watch that the other people in the meeting were using ⌛
And then people would have to make "watch bridges" that converted between two different ways of measuring time, except that to avoid patent violations they'd by necessity be ever so slightly offset and inaccurate ⏱️
I don't know how it works, but when I plug in my #KaiOS phone I get a "mobile broadband" option automatically appearing in my :gnome: #GNOME menu, which allows me to toggle broadband independently of the phone's mobile data setting 📶
Is it detecting it as an external modem or something? Anyway, it's pretty cool, although I don't know what to do with it besides enable mobile data without fiddling with the phone 😅
PS: The one marked "Vi India" is mobile data; it even shows signal strength!
How can telecom providers be unhappy at streaming companies using too much bandwidth? Aren't they billing customers for bandwidth already?
If they're not able to provide the unlimited downloads they promised to the customer, at the rates they promised, that's their problem, not the streaming companies' ⏯️
#OCaml peeps, how would #Irmin work as the backend for an #ActivityPub powered social network? :fedi: 🐫
Looking at the descriptions, it seems it'd be either the worst or the perfect fit, but I can't figure out which 😅
The plus point is ActivityPub is all about distributed databases and edit history and posts that shouldn't be duplicated. But social media is also about privacy rights, including the right to be forgotten—so is that something the history-preserving Irmin can easily handle? 📜
