Mozilla and Firefox don’t have to be the largest or even the most “consumer” relevant. Yet I fear chasing becoming “the best” or “being what everyone wants them to be” is going to end poorly.

Instead, they should focus on building an engine and browser that _just works_. Focus on privacy. Focus on standards. Be the one for enthusiasts and techies.

Do a thing. Stick to it. Be the best you can be.

I finally got around to making a #linuxaudio list! And need to go through my followed to build out the list.

But until then: Any suggestions?

(And yes you can suggest yourself, I want as many interested in audio work on Linux as possible)

GitHub sending out emails today about a price change taking effect Jan 1st 2026 is a bit cheeky when lots of DevOps teams are likely to be thin on the ground

resources.github.com/actions/2…

Now while it does suggest that change is likely a reduction in bills, the change to charge for **self hosted** run time is going to sting (that goes live March 1st 2026)

I think @Codeberg and @forgejo are likely to see another uptick in users.

If the media is the message, then the institution is the ideology: the nature of the platform you speak from, who it serves and what it's trying to achieve, becomes part of what you're saying, no matter the original intent.

By which I mean, Communist groups organizing on Facebook may be the most hilarious self-sabotage ever.

Stop de Amerikaanse overname DigiD!

Onze privé-gegevens zijn bij overname door een Amerikaans bedrijf niet veilig! Dit lijkt ons niet de veilige manier nu president Trump in Amerika aan het roer staat.
