We need a free/libre fork of #Android for the public commons. Google cannot be trusted.
Maybe that could be #lineageos or #Graphene, but given that they build on top of Android rather than driving the core development, I'm not certain they would be enough as it stands.

Marginalia scores a second #nlnet #grant for 2025, because who doesn't love a search engine that nobody asked for? 
The #roadmap is as clear as a toddler's scribble, but hey, at least it secures more time for #Viktor to "work" on it full-time.

www.marginalia.nu · Marginalia Search receives second nlnet grantI’m happy and grateful to announce that the Marginalia Search project has been accepted for a second nlnet grant.
All the details are not yet finalized, but tentatively the grant will go toward addressing most of the items in the project roadmap for 2025.
I’ve already been working full time on the project since summer 2023, and this grant secures additional development time, and extends the runway to a comfortable degree.

@josemurilo Good points :)
@volkris the issue with your comment is that the #Fediverse comes from a long history, and it embodies this history, which is where the value comes from.
Yes, it comes from meany sub cultures, these are better described as communities rather than users. Hope that makes sense.
Keeping mess is grassroots cultural, allowing it to be messy is neoliberal #mainstreaming?
I agree with your point about the devs and funding from #NGI and #NLnet an on rolling mess.
2025.03.1 release of #Overte is ready! It has significant number of improvements and bug fixes, including Alezia's redesigned Places app including portals. Thanks to HifiExperiments and #NLnet foundation grant this release has improved TAA anitaliasing, third person camera clipping and large refactor of the codebase, making future improvements easier. #foss #vr #opensource
Overte's V8 script engine is very versatile. Can it run Doom though? Thanks to Ada's recent work on Canvas API and script-accessible textures grant from #NLnet foundation, on feature/canvas-entity branch it's now possible to paint directly to textures from #javascript and #webassembly . #foss #opensource #wasm #vr

the good folks over at #NGI seem to be set on IPFS a solution to all trust-less p2p data distribution problems. However I’ll try and convince them that alternative solutions are probably healthy to try out.
#NLnet is definitely not dead-set on IPFS.
> I just want the simple parts (connecting and exchange) to be layered separately from the routing parts. IPFS does actually do a lot of layering. I don’t follow hypercore and other stuff very much, but I don’t recall seeing much layering.

NixOS Discourse · Should IPFS be used as a source for fetchurl in Nixpkgs?Yes, you can fetch directly from SWH, but then it isn’t clear how to do so as a substitutor without more changes to nix. Conversely, you can use the IPFS gateway without having IPFS installed — that has improved since we did the Nix IFPS work so we could add support for that. SWH is supposed to be an archive of last resort to potentially tons of people flooding their API with similar requests just waste’s the non-profit’s bandwidth. IPFS however can act as a CDN.
