whoa! thanks a lot! that's my mistake.

thanks for the awesome info, I should've at least check the repo of the individual projects first (only did so with Forgejo).

I totally agree with you, and do think that it is possible to have positive and harmless CLAs. though I do think we should always take a step back and not assume that a project's CLA will be in favor of our copyright, with the case being more the exception than the norm, unfortunately.

in the end, I will always be happy that a copyright holder wants to be able to reliably make money with copyleft software, but I can never really face a CLA without at least initial hostility anymore. you may say I have prejudice against CLAs lol

Sou brasileiro, e apoio muito o estudo do português. É uma língua rica, complexa e linda. Para mim, não há obras literárias iguais aos clássicos brasileiros e portugueses, especialmente quanto ao belíssimo uso da língua portuguesa.

Amo Machado de Assis e recomendo muito as suas obras que, além de mostrarem a beleza do português, continuam intrigantes e divertidas. Também recomendo as obras de Fernando Pessoa, caso opte por um escritor português.

it was so much fun reading soredemo ayumu for all these years and following the ups and downs, the development and the stagnation with the translation team and the HM community.

it has been an amazing journey, this manga couldn't have ended better. thank you Yamamoto for the incredible wholesome experiences over the years!

may we all keep senpai in our hearts 🫡

codeberg is great! the community there seems to be interested in growing the platform and developing tools as useful as those on GitLab/GitHub.

Yeah, a lot of lemmy users were already into free software as a whole and liked lemmy because it's libre and federated. So it's only natural you see the focus on software freedom everywhere.

I just think that we should strive to use libre alternatives, especially when they are as useful/better than closed source ones.

The philosophical side of free software is much more important to me than anything else. For me, it's not just about using open source software for the sake of it. It's about software freedom.

But I don't go around telling everyone to use open source or die. If you just don't like the libre alternative and prefer using closed source software, whatever. If there isn't a general reason to use a closed source software, I'll just point out the libre alternative (or try to convince that a somewhat inferior libre alternative may not be that bad) :)

it's just capitalism being the abhorrent shit it always was.

[-] whou@lemmy.ml 2 points 1 year ago

yeah. and what killed capitalism is also capitalism itself. capitalism is flawed.

Torch Browser is not open source, and it still is based on chromium. It's the worst browser combination possible.

Falkon is pretty cool! I prefer using qutebrowser if it's gonna use QtWebEngine anyway. It is slower and less featureful than the main browsers, though. If you don't mind it, I'd say go for it!

I didn't know about Dot Browser, but it looks... unfinished? It's based on Firefox, so that's cool. But it seems someone would be better off just using something like LibreWolf (or Tor if you actually want some privacy).

BookWyrm has a barcode scanner on its UI, which redirects you into the scanned book title (if it's registered in the "databases" BookWyrm pulls from)

true, based and redpilled

yeah the manga is a raging dumpster fire that doesn't seem to be settled down so soon

the best part of reading it was following the weekly posts on r/manga about how bad it was. they were hilarious
