So a regular day for me.

Almost 20 years after enigmail saw the light of day, and about 3 days before people stop using PGP, Mozilla announces OpenPGP to be integrated into Thunderbird.

Hey there #webdev Fediverse friends! When it comes to #frontend (or #node) #coding, what do you prefer?
ES6+ #JavaScript (aka EMCAScript) or #TypeScript?

Also, which might make you more likely to contribute code if you're interested in the project?

Hello Fediworld 👋

most of the #switchingsocial website is restored - have a look:

https://switching.software
(or https://swiso.org for short)

I want to thank @gemlog for preparing the web-archive version and @LuKaRo for extracting the missing pages from the Google Cache. Would have taken so much longer without you two 🙂

Riot/Web 1.4.0 and Synapse 1.4.0rc1 are here with massive improvements to data privacy, including making identity servers strictly opt-in only; selectable integration managers; garbage collecting redactions & much much more. Read all about it: https://matrix.org/blog/2019/09/27/privacy-improvements-in-synapse-1-4-and-riot-1-4

Why do we call it "environment protection", when really it's more like "human protection". I feel like the environment will survive a lot more and longer than those pesky humans will.

Should I begin recommending FOSS web (social) platforms? Up until this point I have strayed away from them due to me being unable to properly test them out, meaning I couldn't deliver honest commentary on them.

I think I have the resources and technical knowledge to host and test the platforms now.

This is slightly related to the recent disappearance of switching.social.
