jrollans.com is a Fediverse instance that uses the ActivityPub protocol. In other words, users at this host can communicate with people that use software like Mastodon, Pleroma, Friendica, etc. all around the world.
This server runs the snac software and there is no automatic sign-up process.
Not only when taking a broader view do we see movement across #Europe and within the public sector; even when zooming in on specific aspects of the #opensource landscape, we observe shifts, decisions, and changes. Regardless of opinion or perceived truth, a healthy and resilient ecosystem requires the ability to adapt, evolve, and define its new or adjusted positions.
Two weeks after GIMP 3.2 shipped, the team rolled out the first maintenance release. The most annoying issue involved layer groups: certain filters like Drop Shadow would cause layers to stop rendering. The data wasn’t lost, but it was still a blocker for anyone working with grouped structures.
Several problems with vector layers and SVG path imports have been fixed, with the auto-resize option now working correctly. Import compatibility has improved across various formats, including PSD, which now properly reads all channels in Multichannel mode.
On the interface side, the “Calculate unique colors” function in the histogram now respects active selections, calculating only pixels in the selected area. Useful for pixel art work or when you need precise counts. Keyboard shortcut support has also been added for resource selection buttons in plugins.
Windows users will notice another change: with 32-bit builds finally gone, the installer shrank by over 100 MB and runs faster. Anyone still on 32-bit will need to switch to the 64-bit version.
macOS is getting some modernization work, with the goal of automating the build process through CI. DMG packages for this release might arrive a few days late because of limited volunteer availability.
GIMP 3.2.2 is available from the official site in AppImage, Flatpak, and Snap for Linux, a universal Windows installer, and a DMG package for macOS.

Is this a #secure #MessagingApp? Maybe not yet, but it’s time to think about #DigitalPrivacy.
Imagine a #Messaging platform that’s as #secure as #Signal but requires #NoRegistration and #NoInstallation. By leveraging #WebRTC for direct #BrowserToBrowser communication, this #OpenSource project eliminates the #Middleman entirely. Simply share a unique #URL to establish an #Encrypted #PrivateChannel. It is a #Lightweight, #Disposable method to bypass #DataHarvesting and reclaim #DigitalSovereignty.
This project introduces a new #Paradigm in #ClientSide managed #Encryption. Send #Secure messages with #NoSetup, #NoCloud, and #NoTrace.
Experience the #Features:
* #PWA (#ProgressiveWebApp) for instant access
* #P2P (#PeerToPeer) connectivity
* #EndToEndEncryption (#E2EE)
* #SignalProtocol & #PostQuantum #Cryptography
* #Multimedia, #FileTransfer, & #VideoCalls
* #NoDatabase & #Stateless architecture
* #TURN server support for reliable connections

The most recent episode of "Explaining Computers" shows off several distros, which run decently well, with even as low as 4GB of RAM. He even showed a couple of old corncob codger machines (remember the 32-bit, 1-CPU core Asus EeePC"?) which could scrape by with 2GB, and 1GB of RAM respectively, with the right distro installed.
I must admit it gave me nerd joy to watch him go as lightweight as possible for his general audience - he stuck to the most convenient distros he could find, the whole time.
Barnatt had his finger on the pulse of making do with little RAM.

Resilienz beginnt dort, wo Daten nicht mehr vom Zufall abhängen
Es gibt Monate, die sich nach Technik anfühlen. Der April gehört nicht dazu. Der April ist ein Monat der Resilienz. Ein Monat, in dem es nicht darum geht, das nächste Tool zu testen oder den hundertsten Workflow zu optimieren, sondern darum, eine Frage zu beantworten, die wir alle viel zu lange vor uns herschieben: Was passiert eigentlich, wenn plötzlich alles weg ist?
Diese Frage stellt sich niemand gerne. Sie ist unangenehm. Sie riecht nach Paranoia, nach dem Gefühl, man müsste sich auf Katastrophen vorbereiten, die wahrscheinlich nie eintreten werden. Aber dann gibt es diese Momente. Der Laptop startet eines Morgens einfach nicht mehr. Das Smartphone rutscht aus der Tasche und ist weg, vielleicht im Zug, vielleicht auf der Straße, vielleicht für immer. Ein Wasserschaden in der Wohnung macht nicht nur Möbel unbrauchbar, sondern auch das Gerät, auf dem alles war. Oder es trifft einen ganz anders: Diese eine Schadsoftware, die sich einschleicht und plötzlich jedes angeschlossene Laufwerk verschlüsselt, als wäre jemand gekommen und hätte einen Schlüssel herumgedreht, den nur er besitzt.

Warum ich #Linux liebe? 🐧
Weil ich hier die Kontrolle habe. In einer Welt voller Abos und geschlossener Systeme ist #OpenSource wie frische Luft. 🌬️
Ob #Ubuntu oder #PopOS – es geht nicht darum, ein „Hacker“ zu sein. Es geht darum, ein System zu haben, das für DICH arbeitet, nicht gegen dich.
Hast du schon mal überlegt, dein altes Notebook mit Linux wieder flott zu machen? Es ist einfacher, als du denkst! ✨

Leaked memo from Red Hat CTO and SVP tells Global Engineering that ALL roles will evolve: AI as a tool used on occasion becomes AI automation as a way to scale. Staff skillsets will grow (read: must grow) to use AI tools. This mirrors Microsoft push. The FOSS champion is mandating AI adoption across engineering. Whether this improves productivity or alienates experienced engineers remains to be seen. 🐧🤖

Okay, folks, gather 'round, because you are not going to believe this one. My friend who is working at NASA told me this confidential news , but i can finally spill the beans: NASA is officially running NetBSD.
Yeah, you heard that right. Turns out, when you need an OS that can literally run on a potato *and* survive the vacuum of space without a hiccup, you do not mess around. They have been working under wraps with their deep space division on something they are calling "AstroBSD."
Apparently, the Perseverance rover on Mars? Yeah, it is not just taking pretty pictures; it is crunching data with a custom NetBSD kernel.
This just proves what foundation has been saying forever: "Of course it runs NetBSD!" From your ancient router to a rover on another planet.

I was helping an open-source app become more #accessible yesterday and we ran into the problem that it looks like #screenReader Orca has a bit of a tendency to crash when exposed to webkitGTK applications. I've not done Desktop #linux for a long time and have no idea what the workarounds for this would be, does anyone know anyone who might know what's happening here?

Been going down a few high-signal rabbit holes lately — worth your time if you care about systems, software, and where things are heading:
• Linux Foundation YT — deep dives into the infrastructure most people use but don’t understand
https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCfX55Sx5hEFjoC3cNs6mCUQ
• The Pragmatic Programmer YT — practical thinking for building software that actually lasts
https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCPbwhExawYrn9xxI21TFfyw
• A must-watch with Greg Kroah-Hartman — clarity on how real-world systems evolve (and break)
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7agB1vOl-wg
Also came across this — thoughtful, grounded takes on AI (not hype-driven):
https://www.ivanturkovic.com/category/personal/
Pattern I’m noticing:
The real signal isn’t in “hot takes” — it’s in people who’ve been quietly building for decades.

Ich hatte da letztens so einen Gedanken: Wie geil wäre es bitte, wenn wir in den Schulen nicht nur über Social-Media-Verbote diskutieren, sondern das Problem einfach selbst lösen?
Stell dir vor, man setzt mit Schülern ein eigenes Projekt auf: Eine eigene GoToSocial-Instanz oder einen Matrix-Server für die Kommunikation und den Austausch. Anstatt die Kids an Meta und Co. zu verlieren, zeigen wir ihnen, wie man die Technik dahinter einfach selbst hostet.
Das Ergebnis: Volle Souveränität über die eigenen Daten, aber mit demselben Feeling wie bei Instagram oder WhatsApp. Medienkompetenz nicht nur als Theorie, sondern zum Anfassen.
Was hältst du von der Idee, Schüler zu ihren eigenen Providern zu machen? 👇

This Saturday, I attended the (first ever?) State of the Map India conference in Nashik, Maharashtra, which was held as a sub-event in the larger FOSS4G India event.
I was curious about what the turnout would be like, what kind of talks would be presented, what kind of people would attend, etc.
It felt like a typical “FOSS” event held by FOSS United (except FOSSU wasn’t involved in this one, AFAIK)…very corporate-slanted, very “open source”-leaning, very big/normalized on using “AI” (cringe), participants asking for your LinkedIn (cringe), et cetera… 🙂
I also became keenly aware of the divide between myself and the rest of the community…I don’t have a GIS background, and I don’t use OSM professionally. I use free software like CoMaps, OsmAnd, OsmAPP, Cartes.app, GNOME Maps, KDE Marble, etc, and contribute to OSM because I want to improve them.
Conversely, (I suspect that) most of the participants had a GIS background, used OSM professionally, probably relied on Google Maps and other proprietary apps for personal use, and probably didn’t even know about the apps I mentioned. Chances are they don’t contribute to OSM either, unless required to for their jobs.
(That is, with the exception of some of the most active OSM contributors of India, who were also present. Also, it’s possible that I just didn’t mingle with “unknown” folks enough…I need to work on that. 🙁)
This isn’t a criticism of the organizers, of course. Hell, that’s just the kind of crowd I need to meet (and don’t normally get to) for the purpose of promoting software freedom. 🙂
I made notes about a potential future talk I could give here. (Hell, I was about to pitch an impromptu lightning talk, but then I saw that the room was all but empty after lunch… 🥲) I look forward to attending the next iteration.

XScreenSaver 6.15 ships with 13 new savers including a bunch of Shadertoy ports (bestill, bubblecolors, darktransit, downfall, driftclouds...). The fact that XScreenSaver is still getting updates in 2026 with Shadertoy integrations is peak open source sustainability. jwz has been maintaining this since the '90s. Respect the maintainers. 🖥️✨

VitruvianOS 0.3: a Haiku-inspired Linux-based OS with its own graphics stack — bypassing X11 and Wayland entirely. Building a new display stack from scratch in 2026 is either audacious or insane. Either way, ambitious open source projects like this keep the ecosystem alive. 🐧🖥️

Interesting perspective. As much as I like the #EuroOffice attempt with a fork of #ONLYOFFICE, it looks like OnlyOffice does have a point here.
You can't selectively chose to ignore/drop any conditions under a copyleft #OpenSource licence (in this case the #AGPLv3).
I guess the Euro-Office initiative is in a bit of a pickle, here.
Dylan "I read the law and I'm here to implement it" M. Tylor gets up in the morning and decides to write age verification code that he himself calls "hilariously pointless and ineffective", within a week strikes 4 repos of his list, and i bet the Linux Kernel is going to be next (I'm joking... mostly)
It's worth noting that the first people who approved the PR on systemd repo are big tech employees - Mircoslop and Redhat/IBM (why I'm i not surprised!!), someone then opened a revert PR, Lennart Poettering (systemd creator) closed it.. thus blocking the removal
And this is why you now have Liberated Systemd, a fork of systemd without Age verification.. which IS 'hilariously pointless and ineffective' at saving children
when engineers starts reading the law like a specification, this is what you get.. useful idiots.

RE: https://fosstodon.org/@ONLYOFFICE/116317711474615441
So, #onlyoffice think they found a legal loophole in #AGPLv3 by mandating „the obligation to retain the original product logo“ while at the same time denying any rights to use said (trademarked) logo 🤡
#IANAL but I doubt any judge will agree to this interpretation of „requiring preservation of specified reasonable legal notices or author attributions“ (section 7b), but hey, feel free to bring this to court, good luck! 😂
#NextCloud #eurooffice #opensource
We have flagged the "Euro-Office" project by #Nextcloud and IONOS for clear license violations.
As an open-source product, #ONLYOFFICE relies on strict AGPLv3 compliance. This includes proper attribution and keeping our original branding intact. We require full and immediate adherence to all our licensing terms.

This week I had a chat with Michael Winser about securing open source at scale
We recorded prior to the events of the last few weeks, everything Michael talks about with securing our infrastructure is spot on
We touch on package repositories, Alpha Omega, foundations, and more. Michael is doing some really interesting work
