@az_1 @star Yeah, the UI is somewhat discord-inspired but drawing from Material Design 3, and MDE specifically. The UX for Matrix hasn't historically been great, but it's getting better, and I hope to make it even better with my client :)

Deno is joining Cloudflare. I wrote about Deno's decline a few months ago: I wish Deno would keep doing what it does best. I shared its vision, but I think it never got far because a startup was the one carrying it out. This decision makes me more sure of that. It also settles something for me […]

Day 2 of the postmarketOS and Alpine Linux 2026 conference was a huge succes! It was another amazing day full of interesting talks and discussions. The final (😢) day is about to start,, you can watch the talks online at […] [Original post on social.treehouse.systems]

Natanael is talking about the 5 lessons he learned while developing Alpine Linux for the last 20 years. He is standing in front of the presentation stand with his laptop in front. To the left of him is a part of a sentence of his slide showing.

Yvan is talking about Mûre, a "malleable" window manager. They are standing in front of the presentation stand with their laptop full of technology stickers on the back. To the left of them a slide is showing the "how to draw an owl" meme.

Isaac is presenting about River, a Wayland compositor that allows window manager makers to just focus on window managing and not having to write an entire compositor. They're standing in front of the presentation stand and their laptop is full of technology stickers. To the left of them a slide of the presentation is showing a diagram explaining the non-monolithic architecture of River.

Eloy is moderating a workshop about writing the EU citizens initiative about unlockable bootloaders. To the left of him there is a relatively large TV showing Elly on video call who sadly couldn't make it to the event physically. The video call is taking up the right 3rd of the screen and to the left of it is a combination of what seems to be a terminal window and a webpage showing some text.

Just as the school year begins, GO Train service is being cut. One fully-loaded GO Train can take up to 2,000 cars off the road. Doug Ford is allowing train service cuts while throwing money at new highways & bike lane removals, worsening traffic congestion. Details + how to take action!⬇️

And the idea that something isn't art because it's there for a purpose or because you, as an audience member, don't see it is ridiculous!

Jade posted:

Far more to art exists than what you see as an audience member - when you watch a film, you do not know or care about the camera the cinematographer used, but it shapes what you experience. When you go to a live music show, you can't hear the cues and countdowns in the performer's ears that make sure everything happens in perfect time, but they are as essential to the performance as the lights that colour the stage. And yet it is a part of the art nonetheless - something does not have to be seen to have meaning or to be part of a performance.

It's so so important as software developers we don't forget that we aren't working on a production line - what we do is creative work, is art, and artists are our siblings in persuit.

atzanteol@sh.itjust.works posted:

Computer code is not art. It has no aesthetic quality. It's generally not even seen and frequently hidden.

It's engineering - you don't need to get all up yourself by claiming to be "artists".

Jade posted:

As someone who has performed in orchestras, hosted touring musicians, shot video onstage at festivals, livestreamed events, and worked with photographers, sound engineers and producers - Computer programming and software development is just as much art as any of them. Calling what we do engineering is a poor excuse to forgoe solidarity with our fellow creatives.

if anyone is looking for a good discord alternative, I recommend matrix, especially with sable as the client for it. it's far from perfect, but it has end to end encryption and is decentralized while having a similar set of features.
