I see that Euro-Office claims to support ODF and that doesn't seem like a direct response to them. My criticism still stands though.

Well 35 years is just false, even if you count it as a continuation from StarOffice that would be 41 years, I can't work out where they got 35 from, but that's a stupid argument anyway, it's only as old as its last version, OnlyOffice lacks features. I'm not impressed by any of this.

I think if anything he's the last YouTuber I follow who I would expect to do something like that. He's always presented himself as someone with a lot of integrity which, whether that's genuine or not I don't know him, would be a massive departure to his established image, he's also been pretty sceptical about AI. It's also not like he's completely disappeared for the past two years, he's done his podcast and other collaborations, no evidence that he's massively shifted his values over that time. Can't really comment on the video quality itself, not much of a visual person really I tend not to notice this kind of stuff, but that's my "personal" interpretation, I think it's unlikely.

I still remember when Google launched, the uncluttered homepage was the real differentiator, other search engines, especially AltaVista, were just as good at the time, but they would load their homepage with as much extra stuff as they could think of to attract people. Then Google came along with a quirky name (for the time) and a uniquely minimalist look that broke all the established rules, it wasn't necessarily better search at that point but it really looked different. Different times of course, a search engine was just another website, no different to your own personal page.

Yeah, they were making AI slop by hand before we even had AI.

Don't see the point, the world doesn't need another Chromium browser.

I've been using FreeTube for years, it does break from time to time but never for very long, and it's a much nicer experience all round.

Paying for services isn't philosophically incompatible with FOSS, that's how companies like RedHat broke through back in the day, but paying for "quick and high-quality security updates" strikes me as alarming. Am I to take from that that they're holding back high-quality security updates from some users? Unless maybe we're talking about extended support for EoL software.

Repeat something enough and it becomes a self-fulfilling prophecy. First it was "Jeremy Corbyn is unelectable", now it's "Nigel Farage is on course to be the next Prime Minister". Same thing.

That's a really misleading headline; a Mastodon instance has done this, Mastodon as a whole can't do this because it's free software, it can be used for any purpose.

Just upgraded. I think I must have been the only person in the world to like the old Fedora installation UI but everyone complained about it so it must be good news that it's gone, as long as I don't hate the new one.

Who is they?
