So I think good luck for foss movement. Hopefully, forking that project won’t be illegal because otherwise foss will die

But where do you have information that it was russian state? There are many state actors capable of doing this. Just saying

Actually I’m interested how it looks legally ( it somebody cares about it at all ). Whether the Russian contributors could ask to revert their changes as they most likely never signed the contract to transfer their code copyrights. For sure it will have a big impact on foss because if you have at least one American and Russian contributors, you may get in the biggest shitshow. Additionally if I was considering now to become a contributors, I’d be wondering if it’s worthy at all to work for free and then to be banned no thanks for whole free work years

Nothing interesting for 99% population. Tech blogging is the hardest stuff and most tech youtubers pretty much stopped contributing. What’s the point of sharing knowledge if any gamer on twitch has bigger audience than you maybe 200 - 300 live watchers and it’s the a good number of viewers for a very well known polish security researcher ( ex Google ). So you know why social media is going shit

Not bloated because it doesn’t have almost any features. No spaces, no threads, joining channels doesn’t work, wait until becomes as the predecessors. The performance improvement is negligible in my experience. It does simply depend on thr homeserver performance , not much on matrix version

Keep it all together with the code and use f.e. asciidoctor or rst ( python ). There is also doxygen but it’s not most user friendly

fast

I noticed performance of matrix depends strongly on the server. Matrix.org is dead slow, I started using tchncs.de and even old ( somehow legacy ) element android is blazing fast

Element I’m not that sure, it’s so bloated that I’m surprised it works on mobile phones. Regarding matrix sure

So far, irc, jabber/ xmpp and matrix and plain old email with gpg :-)

I think the only still secure network is i2p. In there you don’t have the exit node

Is there an email thread where c and rust Linux kernel devs actually discuss what’s about? Because so far I see some Linux drama and I have no slightest clue what’s about

Seriously, if you do take one verse from the whole response, you get straw men you fighting with.

I just told you that jabber / xmpp was created in the times almost nobody knew or believed mobile phones can be a thing. Thus it got created in that way: many similarities of xmpp and e-mail, irc or icq which didn’t stand the passage of time.

Of course, you’re right xmpp evolved to get PubSub extension as an “optional feature” but because of its availability (or rather lack) - most servers didn’t support it even the client did support, xmpp didn’t win the acceptance of the end-users. It got some attention in the business world (cisco jabber) but not in the retail.

Business cannot work forever without clients willing to pay or at least use, so it died off even in the business.

End of story, try not to fighting with the straw men you created.

XMPP is very old and was created when nobody knew about mobile phones. It worked more like true messaging app less than messages store ( unlike matrix ).

Requirement of permanent tcp ip connection doesn’t work well for mobile + pretty much useful feature in xmpp ( like message history ) is optional. If something doesn’t work in xmpp most people would blame xmpp / jabber rather than the lack of feature support in their server

Mastodon offers rss for both keywords and users

Polls signed by USSR officials. Yes. you’re laughable. Like 100% support like in North Korea otherwise gulag

If you call the majority of the country cancer, it’s a clear sign you’re commie scumbag.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Martial_law_in_Poland in 1979 - 81. Whole country, students, workers, artisans were protesting against just lack of basic goods, cheap flats and no job opportunities and you call it “cancer”. You summed up your political movement well.

Hmm, what alternative? XML :-)? People hate Grade DSL just for not being xml

Whole country was anticommunist scumbags? 68, 80, 82? People were protesting because high prices of groceries, basic products, lack of flats, no work opportunities for educated people. You have no slightest idea what you’re saying. My father and mother were protesting as students, but my father’s father was in the party, director of the cheese factory and even that fact didn’t protect my father. You’re really commie scumbag for advocating violence for the protesting people. Allegedly protesting and human rights were guaranteed in those communist countries constitutions

Free Healthcare as long as you manage to survive the queues and not to die in between. Same with everything. Good propaganda bloke, people kept waiting for own flat 30 years and even after that you didn’t get it without connections. My parents weren’t in the party, the all bought the flat in that bad capitalism.

Not mentioning my father beaten down by prison guards because taking part in students protests. So called “path of health”

Yes, one part in the soviet Ukraine, second part in socialist Poland. Which party of my family missed the best of communism? [FULL IRONY MODE]

Not more utopian than your beloved USSR
