F-Droid 2.0 is finally out. The biggest update in a decade, and the first one that actually does not look like it was designed in a shed.

The whole app is a Kotlin Compose rewrite now. Navigation is down to three tabs: Discover, Search, My Apps. Updates are automatic in the background by default, and the new session installer finally makes the install flow on par with the Play Store (thanks, EU DMA).

The trade-offs?
- No more Privileged Extension support
- Tor auto-detection is gone, you now need a Tor VPN for that
- The panic wipe feature and the fake calculator disguise are also dead
- Android 6 support has been dropped

This a massive step forward for FOSS Android. But do read the release notes before updating if you relied on those privacy tools.

F-Droid 2.0 is rolling out over the coming weeks with a redesigned Android app for finding and managing free and open-source software. Search now covers descriptions, categories, and translated content, while new filters help narrow results. On supported devices, installation approval happens before the download, and the app can check for updates in the background.

Another small one in Mastodon's own web client.

Someone filed the bug on September 18: post from the deck view, Mastodon's multi-column layout, and the compose box just sits there instead of going back. Reply, quote, edit, same story.

The check turned out to be one exact string, pathname === '/publish', with no idea that /deck/publish exists. I pulled it into its own isStandaloneComposePath function, stripped the /deck prefix before comparing, and added a test so the next refactor cannot quietly break it again.

Merged into main today by diondiondion. PR: https://github.com/mastodon/mastodon/pull/40663

#Mastodon #OpenSource #JavaScript #WebDev #OSS

Alt...

Fixed a bug where posting, replying, quoting or editing from Mastodon's deck (multi-column) layout left the compose box open instead of returning to the previous screen. The path check only recognized /publish, not /deck/publish. Extracted a normalizing helper and added a test. Merged by diondiondion, PR #40663.

Today, @liberaforms released a new version including our work on its Dockerfile.

As explained on the project blog:

"The Dockerfile has been improved in many ways, but most notably, it now uses a multi-stage build. As a result, the final image now only includes the runtime dependencies, and not the development ones any more. This led to a significant size reduction of ~43%! It also helps reduce the attack surface as development tools that can be used to craft exploits, such as gcc, are now absent from the final image."

https://blog.liberaforms.org/2025/09/28/version-450/

This is a first step of a global enhancement regarding the containerisation of LiberaForms. Our next objective is to remove the use of the root account for running the service.

“My coding agent forgets everything between sessions.”

That sounds like one problem, but it’s really two.

Session memory remembers things for one developer and one agent: preferences, corrections, local context.

Project memory preserves what the project itself must not forget: decisions, rejected alternatives, constraints, workarounds and rationale.

They can overlap.

But a local memory remembering a project fact does not make that fact project memory.

For that, it has to travel with the project.

Session memory is not project memory. It fixes the same complaint.

Obscura VPN now has a Linux desktop app – no more wrangling WireGuard config files.

VPNs aren’t exactly in short supply, but Obscura does do things differently to most: it routes your traffic through two providers. Obscura handles the entry node; Mullvad the exit. Neither can assemble a full picture.

And it’s now GPLv3-licensed, which is a nice bonus.

Small one in Matomo core.

Someone else had already found the fix. GitHub issue #25147: searching for lowercase öppettider did not find Öppettider, Swedish å/ä/ö just do not fold across case under a plain ASCII regex. The reporter pasted the exact one-line patch himself, add a u flag next to the existing i.

I turned that into an actual pull request: the flag change, a docblock explaining why /i alone was not enough, and a test covering å/ä/ö in both directions.

Reviewing AI-written specs became our real bottleneck, so we built specgetty: a fast, focused TUI for OpenSpec.

Open it in any project to browse change proposals and specs, then walk through scenarios one card at a time. Scanning a spec vs actually reading it.

Written in Go, keyboard-driven, MIT licensed. Feedback very welcome!

GitHub guarda el tráfico de tus repositorios 14 días, la actividad hasta 300 eventos y olvida las notificaciones leídas.

He hecho ghchronicle para no perder nada: un recolector en Go que barre 34 familias de la API de GitHub y escribe 92 medidas con la fecha en que ocurrieron. InfluxDB, PostgreSQL, Prometheus, Loki y siete destinos más, con dashboards de Grafana que publica él mismo.

Código abierto, MIT.

El logo de ghchronicle, una cuadrícula verde de cinco por cinco que sube en diagonal, sobre el lema: todas las métricas que da GitHub, con la fecha en que ocurrieron. Un panel enumera lo que GitHub deja escapar: el tráfico a los 14 días, la actividad más allá de los 300 últimos eventos, las notificaciones leídas y las fechas de las estrellas cuando la lista crece. ghchronicle las recoge periódicamente y guarda cada una como un punto con fecha.

Alt...

Cómo funciona ghchronicle, en cuatro pasos. 1, GitHub: REST y GraphQL, 34 familias, 92 medidas. 2, ghchronicle: barridos periódicos, cada punto con la fecha en que ocurrió y un backfill que se reanuda tras un corte. 3, once destinos: InfluxDB, PostgreSQL, TimescaleDB, Graphite, Elasticsearch, OpenSearch, Prometheus, OpenTelemetry, Loki, Telegraf y fichero. 4, Grafana: cinco dashboards de 154 paneles cada uno, que publica el propio binario. Se instala con una línea y se configura con ghchronicle -setup.

GitHub keeps your repository traffic for 14 days, your activity feed for 300 events, and forgets read notifications altogether.

I built ghchronicle to keep all of it: a Go collector that sweeps 34 families of the GitHub API on a schedule and writes 92 measurements as points dated when they happened. InfluxDB, PostgreSQL, Prometheus, Loki and seven more, with Grafana dashboards it publishes itself.

Open source, MIT.

#GitHub #Grafana #Golang #OpenSource #SelfHosted

Alt...

The ghchronicle logo, a five by five grid of green squares rising on the diagonal, above the tagline: every metric GitHub will give, kept with the date it happened. A panel lists what GitHub lets go of: traffic after 14 days, the activity feed beyond the last 300 events, read notifications, and star dates once the list grows. ghchronicle sweeps them on a schedule and keeps each one as a dated point.

Alt...

How ghchronicle works, in four steps. 1, GitHub: REST and GraphQL, 34 families, 92 measurements. 2, ghchronicle: sweeps on a schedule, dates each point when it happened, and a backfill that resumes after a kill. 3, eleven destinations: InfluxDB, PostgreSQL, TimescaleDB, Graphite, Elasticsearch, OpenSearch, Prometheus, OpenTelemetry, Loki, Telegraf and a file. 4, Grafana: five dashboards of 154 panels each, published by the binary itself. Install in one line, then run ghchronicle -setup.

"Project memory" for coding agents can mean very different things.

I compared Keep the Why, Claude Code Auto Memory, MemoryCustodian and AgentsRoom using three questions:

Where does the memory live?
Who can read it?
What does it actually remember?

The interesting result: most of these tools are not direct competitors.

Session memory remembers what happened.

Project state remembers where the project is.

The rationale layer remembers why the project became what it is.

Different layers, different tools, different trade-offs.

I'm looking for an open-firmware #NiMH oldschool AA/AAA #batteries charger #circuit and algorithm. Anyone knows whom could I ask, who could know something? I tried searching on github and the wide web a while ago, but there seems to be surprisingly little information. What I found IIRC either:

- used proprietary chips, that are long out-of-manufacture, or will be sooner or later, or are otherwise nontrivial to source for an amateur;

- was a PDF that assumed an Electr. Engineering understanding level that I don't have, and still anyway left much "as an exercise for the reader";

- was a promising link that has long since bitrotten and was not even on The Web Archive;

- was a dumb "trickle charger".

What I understand is generally that apparently doing a "smart" (non-trickle) charger is somewhat non-trivial, and it requires a temperature sensor and some RAM for tracking the recent voltages curve. But the actual details seem murky and vague, at least to me.

But with all of the above, come on, NiMH batteries are so long on the market and so ubiquitous for so many decades already, and you can buy so many premade chargers for cheap - there must be people who have this knowledge, somewhere! After all, somebody keeps designing those chargers!

Can you please help me find someone in-the-know, who might also be able to try and help (even just by patiently explaining) me (an electronics noob with just barebones knowledge) build a simple open-firmware project for a NiMH charger, hopefully, and then share the result on the web to also make available for others?

Qwen-Image-2.1: Alibaba’s new AI image model with transparency feature

I just implemented a @pharoproject version of **git-rivera**, a very efficient Git log graph viewer.

The interesting bit: the graph is generated lazily, on demand, instead of traversing the complete commit history before displaying anything.

That makes it much better suited for large repositories — and hopefully, once the experiment settles, something I can bring into Iceberg itself.
