@aral On top of Delta Chat as e-mail messenger you might find https://webxdc.org interesting -- web apps shared in a chat -- isn't it strongly related to web0 / small web ideas? :)

Regolith is an attempt at offering you a minimalist desktop which is for power users yet really easy to start learning.

It is not a nice, impressive desktop. It is a focused, hands on keyboard, desktop.

Warning: This tooth was trying to steal your focus to convince you to try a desktop that would help you to keep focused. ;-)

Announcing availability of Regolith Desktop 2.0 Beta 1 for Ubuntu Focal & Jammy + Debian Bullseye! 🎉

Installation details available at http://regolith-desktop.com/

Me, trying to figure out what the binary for GNOME Console is called:

1. console… nope
2. gnome-console…nope

*goes to source code repository*

Ah… of course, it’s kgx. Why didn’t I think of that earlier?

👍

So my new computer is a borg cube ;)

(And entirely silent. And running latest Fedora Silverblue 36 beta with GNOME 42. Amazingly smooth, polished, and stable experience so far.)

Decentralisation begins at decentring yourself.

• Corporate vs human futures and topologies

• Big Web vs Small Web (and web3 vs web0)

• Decentralised and decolonial approaches to technology

@elementary Boosting with the hope that please please please the people who buy these will be able to run an updater to get the next major release of the app and not be stuck with the release that comes with it forever.

It must be as easy for people to upgrade the OS as it is to get started with it.

I know this isn’t trivial but please make it a priority. The security of these devices beyond the next major update/end of current LTS security fixes depends on it.
