Does it support Nextcloud news? Sadly that was the reason I had to switch to other readers a few years ago.

This largly depends on the location you are referring to. In many german places / cities, OSM data is often more accurate than Google Maps, even for commercial infos like opening hours. In the end it is up to people to ensure data is up-to-date. Apps like StreetComplete can help with that. Organic Maps also allows for some editing.

And here's the Fediverse post about the incident if you don't want to click on a twitter link https://fosstodon.org/@organicmaps/112976308191001762

Did you read through the linked issue in total?

Nice writeup.

It is a serious problem that the ecosystem is held back by wasting resources on personal disputes with immediate consequences for end users.

Hate on OpenPGP all you want, it still is an important technology with unrealized potential and growth.

Outstanding work. There is some finetuning needed and the ecosystem needs to catch up - looking at you Firefox and KeePassDX, probably more. But this really is a milestone. So glad KeePassXC exists and allowed me to transition over from 1Password.

1Password overdid it a while ago for me and I switched to KeePassXC. It is certainly not as polished as 1Password but the developer team is very responsive and since I started using it, especially on macOS, things have improved a lot already. It is a pleasure to watch things evolve and Passkey support is the next big thing that will be added. Compared to Keychain Access, KeePassXC works cross platform and I need that, since my devices are cross platform. Also helps to avoid vendor lock-in.

Probably the important part of the announcement is:

Four of the major functionalities missing in the first official release of macOS Sonoma are:

    Entire message data is not always passed to the extension making processing the encrypted message impossible
    Reliably encrypted drafts
    Support for setting the default state of the sign and encrypt button in compose windows which can lead to dangerous side-effects
    Sign and encrypt button could go out of sync with internal state, if keyring changes are detected

Really hope this will be added to the API.

Confirming the outdated map data lacking many changes that are present in OSM.

Jellyfin is awesome. I just wish the default client would allow music playback without stuttering when screen is off on android https://github.com/jellyfin/jellyfin-android/issues/39

So does version 2 of Affinity Photo add support for AVIF? Can't find it listed on https://affinity.serif.com/en-gb/photo/full-feature-list/ (rather hard to search, since sections have to be uncollapsed one by one).

Strange price model where existing customers do not get an upgrade discount.

Do you happen to know which OS Phil was using, when he lost his private key and what the exact circumstances were? This is a nice story to be told, but without details it is not worth that much.

Question: all users of the free plan just don't use 2FA or Yubikey? I am amazed how that would be good policy in 2022.

Nothing wrong with charging for a premium version, just curious how users handle things and why there seem to be so many users on the free plan. They all just don't know or care about 2FA?

Like TOTP, which is part of payed variant and I consider that an essential feature of a password manager in 2022. Don't get me wrong, I am not complaining about that business decision, just answering since you asked.

Sol is nice and then again it seems young and a bit lacking.

File search https://github.com/ospfranco/sol/issues/45 or opening files / apps in finder is not yet possible.

Did not understand how to alter search engine.

Window manager does not allow to use screen quarters.

Clearly this has huge potential. Maybe more developers will join the effort.

Maybe https://dortania.github.io/OpenCore-Legacy-Patcher/ is helpful to some.

"iOS struggles with XMPP" Is that so? Monal just received the 5.1.0 update and Siskin is also under active development. Then there is Snikket based on Siskin. Compared to 2017 this is quite the vivid XMPP landscape and development on all three apps is ongoing and the people behind the apps seem capable. You can use a bridge to even use IRC in your XMPP client. Editing txt files in NextCloud and having this by in sync on your other computers is great. Sure, iOS lags in both regards but it is not Apples priority to offer such solutions. They want to shove iCloud down the users throat. Just wanted to mention the existing and viable solutions.

Why? Fujitsu finally came to their senses and their latest ScanSnap software supports S1500 on current macOS (and windows?).

”Lost its way“ is non-actionable and unsubstantiated criticism that reflects poorly on the person making such statement.

What specifically do you disagree with? I actually feel the opposite way. Finally after years of ignoring macOS Firefox feels more at home and the UI changes make it much more pleasant to use.

Can you link your bug report about the crash you are encountering?
