Hey,

I'm looking for the Fediverse alternative of Strava. Something which could :

• track running/walking, etc, with maps
• track workout without map (like bodybuilding, etc.)
• sharing with friends, with ActivityPub
• have history, and totals of activities, like total of kms, total of hours per activities, etc.

I've found those, but: wanderer.to -> not really to record workouts, running etc. This looks like to have a catalog of trail maps intervals.icu -> not with ActivityPub Fittrackee.org -> not with ActivityPub, and looks only for travelling sports, not for sports without maps.

Have you any clue ?

LibreWolf is one of the best browsers for people who don't like generative AI.

Here is the statement posted on Mastodon:

As there seems to have been recent confusion about this, just a quick "official" toot to then pin: we haven't and won't support "generative AI" related stuff in LibreWolf. If you see some features like that (like Perplexity search recently, or the link preview feature now) it is solely because it "slipped through". As soon as we become aware of something like this / it gets reported to us, we will remove/disable it ASAP.

In honor of the great RAM ~~price gouging~~ shortage of 2025-2026, this release cuts the memory usage of VoidAuth in half! I noticed that my own instance was pretty thicc at nearly 300MB of memory usage after stabilizing and not doing anything, so decided to do some trimming and optimization.

(Un)Scientific Results:

• RAM Usage: 280MB -> 150MB
• Image Size: 660MB -> 360MB

This release also brings better support for public OIDC Clients, but more testing is likely needed to catch edge cases so if something isn't working let me know. Thank you everyone for your engagement and support, I am feeling the love as this project crosses past 1000 stars 🥳. If you are interested, please try it out!

Here are the Release Notes:

What's Changed

Features 🚀

• Reduce Image Size and Memory Usage
• Better support for Public OIDC Clients
• Allow Native OIDC Clients Non-Reversed-Domain Schemes

Fixes 🔧

• Fixed Issue That Could Cause Stuck Loading Spinner While Prompting to Create Passkey

Docs 📖

• Docs: add Memos SSO configuration instructions in OIDC guides and fix a typo by @FrostWalk

And a bonus meme:

Initially, I looked for an open source smartwatch that is sold with an opensource OS preinstalled. However, this was not really feasible.

• PineTime had some really bad first hand reviews in addition to them being quite expensive in the EU.
• Pebbles warranty is too low and it is rather expensive.

So as a second attempt I looked for operating systems that you can flash onto watches. I found Open-SmartWatch with OSW-OS and AsteroidOS. While I think that building your smart watch from scratch is cool, AsteroidOS looked more accessible and mature (just based on easy navigation and the feature list).

Sadly, the most supported watch is no longer available: TicWatch Pro 2018

So I thought I just mindlessly ask whether you have a different OS you would recommend or if you have a watch recommendation that is still available.

Taskpony is a self-hosted tasks manager that runs from docker or as a linux service.

"Another tasks app? Seriously?"

I've been trying to de-google and, having used Google Tasks for many years, replacing it proved surprisingly complex for something that seemed so simple. I tried a number of other task managers, both paid and free which, whilst excellent at what they did, I found to be complex or packed with team and group features that I didn't need. So I wrote something for myself and, somewhere along the way, I thought it might be nice to share it with the FOSS community that I've benefited so much from.

It's the first "proper" FOSS app I've released, so please be kind.

Taskpony is over at https://github.com/digdilem/taskpony - it would be great if you could give it a try and let me know how it could be improved.

Hello everyone 👋

I run r/DigitalEscapeTools, a small community focused on open-source, privacy-respecting, and Google-free tools. The goal is to help users discover practical alternatives to mainstream tech while keeping discussions respectful and non-commercial.

I’d like to invite open-source developers and maintainers to share their projects if they fit the following:

🔹 What we’re looking for

Open-source software (FOSS preferred)

Privacy-respecting / minimal tracking

Useful tools (apps, web tools, CLI, extensions, etc.)

Actively maintained or stable projects

🔹 What we avoid

Closed-source apps

Tracking-heavy or ad-driven software

You’re welcome to share:

What your project does

Why it exists

Source code (GitHub, Codeberg, GitLab, etc.)

How users can contribute or give feedback

If you’re interested, feel free to post directly on r/DigitalEscapeTools or join the discussion there.

This is not a promotional post — just an attempt to connect developers and users who care about open source and digital independence.

Thanks, and keep building 🛠️

Hi! I stumbled upn this: https://www.funkwhale.audio/

It is an amazing idea! Are there similar software you guys use? Is this the only currently federated music platform?

Mozilla is making it clear that they do not care about users any more.

Firefox is full of ads, with ads being in the homepage shortcuts, the news feed and the omnibox dropdown, as well as various ads for Mozilla services throughout the UI. Their ad network is also marketed to companies as allowing them to reach adblocker users.

Mozilla’s 210M+ global users are typically hard to reach. They're usually hidden behind ad blockers, nearly half avoid dominant social media, and most say no to default platforms. They’re selective, tech savvy, and paying attention. From: https://www.mozilla.org/en-US/advertising/

Firefox is also full of tracking, with their mobile app sending data to the tracking company Adjust, and it having options for "personalised extension recommendations" and "Install and run studies". The latter allows them to install what they want into your browser without your consent out of the box.

Their tracking protection also mostly works only in private / incognito mode by default, with tracking scripts being allowed to run in standard windows with just isolated cookies protecting you, which is not a decision that a company who actually cares about privacy would make.

Mozilla is also partnering with Perplexity, an AI search engine who wants to collect as much data as possible even outside of their app to sell "hyper personalized" ads, which is exactly who you shouldn't work with if you claim to care about privacy. From: https://techcrunch.com/2025/04/24/perplexity-ceo-says-its-browser-will-track-everything-users-do-online-to-sell-hyper-personalized-ads/

I recommend switching to Librewolf as it takes Firefox and removes this bullshit. Some other alternatives like Brave are just as bad.

Howdy Comrades and Russian bots! I wanted to share a new app I just started using. Its called Shiru and it works like streamio only its for just anime. Out of the box it won't stream anything. You have to add the extensions for streaming. So go here after installing Shiru. https://github.com/Spithskia/Shiru-Extensions then copy and paste the link for the extensions into the sources part of settings. Then set the bandwidth limit, turn off autoplay next chapter to avoid issues like I had early and add a my anime list account for saving progress marks and playlist.

My go to music player for my phone, dusted off and made new again.

Hello,

I downloaded SchildiChat to access matrix as their UI is more conveniant than Element. Exodus and TC slim however found "Google Admob" within the app.

As you can see on the screenshot. I asked developers about it, and they told me there's no trackers on the app.

Who's right, who's wrong ?

Thanks

Overview

On December 8th 2025, Sectigo abruptly revoked RustDesk’s Extended Validation (EV) Code Signing Certificate without presenting any evidence of malicious behavior or security compromise. This unilateral action immediately disrupted RustDesk users worldwide, triggering false SmartScreen warnings, breaking enterprise deployments, and damaging trust in the software supply chain.

As an open-source remote desktop project used by millions globally, RustDesk takes security and transparency as core principles.

Sectigo’s unjustified revocation — later admitted to be a false positive — represents not only a direct harm to our project but also a serious threat to the integrity of the global digital certificate trust model.

Why Sectigo’s Action Is Unacceptable

According to the CA/Browser Forum EV Code Signing Guidelines, a CA may revoke an EV certificate only when supported by verifiable, auditable evidence such

• confirmed malicious activity,

• verified key compromise,

• fraudulent organization information, or

• legal mandate.

None of these conditions applied to RustDesk.

Sectigo’s decision to revoke a critical EV certificate based on an internal false positive — without evidence, without warning, and without transparency — is a breach of industry standards and a dangerous precedent.

If a CA can arbitrarily revoke certificates, the entire trust system that underpins software distribution becomes fragile.

Hello Lemmy,

With this release, bluetuith now works on MacOS. MacOS specific instructions are here: https://bluetuith-org.github.io/bluetuith/Installation/MacOS.html.

(TL;DR Install and run Haraltd and then run Bluetuith)

Bluetuith is a TUI based bluetooth manager, that aims to be an alternative to most bluetooth managers, and can perform bluetooth based operations like:

• Connection to and general management of bluetooth devices, with device information like battery percentage, RSSI etc. displayed, if the information is available. More detailed information about a device can be viewed by selecting the 'Info' option in the menu or by clicking the 'i' key.

• Bluetooth adapter management, with toggleable power, discoverability, pairablilty and scanning modes.

• Transfer and receive files via the OBEX protocol, with an interactive file picker to choose and select multiple files.

• Handle both PANU and DUN based networking for each bluetooth device (Linux only)

• Control media playback on the currently connected device, with a media player popup that displays playback information and controls. (Linux only)

I hope you enjoy this release, and any feedback is appreciated.

I do not really have a body for this. I was not aware that this is a thing and still feel like this is bs, but maybe there is an actual explanation for HDMI Forum's decision that I am missing.

Is there is any active fork or repo containing info about how to deCloudflare?

This weekend, meeting a lot of people, I noticed how hard it is for us to communicate and organize stuff. Some have Instagram, some have X, both are shitty places not designed for group conversation. Some have Discord, some have WhatsApp, some don't use the phone, some have no social media, and everything requires you to either provide an email or phone number, create an account, etc, so I thought maybe it would be easier to have something like an IRC room, but it's been more than 20 years since I last touched IRC and I'm sure there must be newer alternatives around.

Main functionality I'm looking for is casualness (no acc needed) and stored live chat. The ability to pin stuff would be great, maybe create sub rooms and have private chat as well. Do you guys know anything like that?

Is there an Android keyboard where you control the sursor with the spacebar like on iOS?

Is this as safe as installing Lineage OS, microG, and F-Droid seperately? I am thinking to finally make the jump away from Android (and preferrably all of Google) and this looks like a really really handy solution. Perhaps too handy, if you get my drift. Is this a legit project or is it just a wrapper to send all my data to Tel Aviv?

With enough time and coffee I think I could eventually manage to install Lineage OS, microG, and F-Droid individually but LineageOS for microG seems to have it all wrapped in a bow for me.

TIA!

Heyho, I would like to track how much I walk per day. Ideally via a FOSS app as I don't have any other device on me all the time. Is there anything good available?

I used this back when I was on Windows in order to make some much needed tweaks to the windows UI. You can see a list of mods here: https://windhawk.net/mods

Looks like they added some nice UI and stability improvements with this update. See the linked changelog for full details
