Lollypop is actually a GTK3 app (it looks pretty dated on my mostly GKT4 GNOME setup) and it’s imo still the best GNOME music app. I’m honestly suprised they say Lollypop’s UX sucks but then praise RecordBox’s because I can’t stand RecordBox (why make me double click to play a song* and don’t get me started on the Artist+Album view). Also surprised Gapless didn’t get mentioned here, I think this is actually pretty decent though its queue system could use work.

*The dev says this choice is so you can select songs and instead you should use the little play button next on the right side of all playable entries.

What a reasonable and not uncharitable interpretation of a pun. Everything is 100% serious all the time and must be interpreted through the most literal lens possible.

TBF, Polanski isn’t an isolationist. He says we should build an alternative alliance with our European allies, though why just making NATO less America-led or even America-less isn’t something he’s explained to my knowledge. I suppose saying ‘leave NATO’ is more attention grabby than the more nuanced ‘we need to become less dependent on America and instead rely on our European partners’.

Polanski is just the leader of the Green party, he’s not even an MP. The leave NATO thing isn’t even Green party policy, it’s to reform it from within, he just started talking about leaving it during the leadership election and has defended it since.

Build communities without the middle men.

Yeah, that makes more sense. I didn’t know there were so many others, I’d only heard of Provenance.

The Ancillary books follow one story, unless something changes in Mercy which I haven’t read yet.

I did: https://bsky.app/profile/flamingos-cant.xyz/post/3mcd423kj2c2t, Bridgy-fed wraps the entire text content of a post into a single <p> element so the it’s being collapsed into a single paragraph in the markdown conversion.

Formatting is a bit weird, but it works! https://feddit.uk/post/42603656

When you delete something, your instance sends it the instance of the community. The community is suppose to process that and then forward that delete to every instance where a subscriber of that community resides. In this case, either zip failed to send the delete to world or something went wrong on world.

I think so, at least a reverse image search shows in image has been posted in the Black Lagoon subreddit.

Nothing really, people just hate it because support for it is bad (which will be worse for AVIF or JXL, but hey ho).

Catbox is blocked by some ISPs irrc, could be that. It’s not down though: https://status.catbox.moe/

APNG, which is technically not separate from PNG proper now.

You’ll want to decide on a GUI framework to start as you’ll have to design quite a bit around it. Rnote is a good place to look, it uses GTK+libadwaita.

Taler needs buy in from banks and irrc it’s only being trialled by some Swiss banks atm.

204.4 KB if you download the source png and not the webp.

The IPA would be terrible as an English alphabet, English has like a bazillion accents so the written language would actually become less standardised. Imagine you cross the border into Scotland and now you have to put a bunch of /ɹ/s at the end of words because the local accent is rhotic.

🫩 I just want to sync my music between my computer and phone and I really can’t be arsed with this drama.
