I still don't get why so many messengers don't notify you when someone reacts to your message with an emoji. What's the point of those reactions if you're not made aware of them (unless you specifically look for them in the chat)?

Looking at you, #Threema and #Matrix. πŸ‘€ Only #Signal does it right, apparently.

What do you think?

That β€œburden of migration” you're rightly complaining about is the exact lock-in effect that the whole #GiveUpGithub discussion is centred around! Migrating issues and PRs isn't a hassle because @Codeberg Announcements is shit, but because GitHub try their very best to add as much friction as necessary to stop you from leaving.

Forgejo (the platform powering Codeberg) is actively working on federation, i.e. the diametric opposite to lock-in.

If you can't bother to use privacy-respecting open-source tools, why do you develop a privacy-respecting open-source app in the first place?

#Poland's air defence downed russian drones that violated Polish airspace, causing disruptions in Poland's civil aviation.

#russia is not just at war with #Ukraine, but with Europe. Ukraine is the last trench between russia and us, but even trenches can't stop bullets flying overhead.

What else must happen for the last sceptics among us to look the truth in the eye and recognise that talking is no use when you and your neighbours are bombed?

If the termination is legal in the first place, then Ubisoft have every right* to further require you to uninstall their products. That's because you need the author's permission to store a copyright-protected piece of software. Otherwise, you're infringing their copyright.

(Only thanks to this legal situation can the AGPL's network-use clause be enforced.)

* definitely in Germany and likely in the entire EU as well
