    Yeah, I was reading about that, and I'm leaning towards protonmail for that reason (they're a bit of a silo too, but have an imap bridge at least)

    > protonmail is not quite free software, tutanota is good on that front.

    Could you explain what you mean by that? My understanding was that both have released their client-side application as open-source software (tutanota : https://github.com/tutao/tutanota ; protonmail: https://github.com/ProtonMail/WebClient) but that neither have released their server-side software. If anything, based on their GitHub pages, it looks like protonmail has a bit *more* #foss activity.

    But I'd love to know if that's wrong!

    Ok, after getting inspired by a conversation with @algernon earlier today (and their related blog post), I've decided to try out life without syntax highlighting.

    I'm not sure how long I'll stick with it, but I've changed out my color scheme—so at least I'll have something new for #screenshotSunday this week.

    (I'm using the #noFrils syntax theme, ("the theme for vim with so few frills we got ride of the extra L!")) https://www.robertmelton.com/posts/syntax-highlighting-off/

    Linux question:

    Would you prefer to have a program default to opening a file with $EDITOR or $VISUAL? Why?

    I've read https://unix.stackexchange.com/questions/4859/visual-vs-editor-what-s-the-difference, but am still not sure which is the better way to go

    1. VISUAL vs. EDITOR – what’s the difference?
      from Unix & Linux Stack Exchange
      I generally set both VISUAL and EDITOR environment variables to the same thing, but what's the difference? Why would I set them differently? When developing apps, why should I choose to look at VIS...

    i made a universal dark theme for every software ever and through no small effort i managed to convince every hardware manufacturer to support it as an opt-in feature.

    I love my home TL because, before I clicked on this CW, I had no idea whether we'd be talking about:

    1) a living creature that swims in the sea
    2) a terminal shell, or
    3) a mechanical creature

    @jonw
    Of course, in case of systemd (as in many other cases) there are also mindless fanatics, who are even more vocal.

    I wish more people were aware of all the nuances of this issue, instead of thoughtlessly repeating "systemd sucks" or "systemd solves all problems".

    @ohyran

    There was an IRC channel for a bit — @mike set it up. But I'm pretty sure it expired or something.

    These days, there's a keybase group chat for #fosstodon patrons, but it's pretty quiet—I think people pretty much just talk on Mastodon.

    (None of that answers whether you're drunk, but I'll leave that to you!)

    I wonder if there's a middle ground that keeps users control, but also gives them more powerful tools to filter/curate their own feeds

    There are moments, like when my home feed is dominated by a single account who just toots too much, drowning out other accounts, when I long for some curation, like I was used to from e.g. Google+.

    But then when I read another article about how dangerous it is to let algorithms decide what we see on social media, because it amplifies existing human bias and opens us up to manipulation, I am happy to be on a social network that doesn't let an AI filter what I see.

    Mozilla recommends a bunch of password managers in this blog post and none of them are Open Source. No Bitwarden, no Keepass. Only LastPass, Dashlane and 1password.
    Now, while this isn't a big deal, and they're all excellent options, you'd expect that Mozilla would recommend some #OpenSource password managers as well. #privacy

    @sir @derle

    Not simple to *learn*, of course. But all built on (relatively few) simple core primitives. I'm impressed by how few special cases there are (but then my day job involves javascript, which is basically a pile of special cases).

    Rust and C are two languages that have trigger the "difficult to really *get*, but once you do, everything makes *so much sense*" feeling. In contrast with something like Go, which has more of a pick-it-up-in-a-weekend-and-get-to-work feel (also good)

    @sir @derle

    Your rust flame wars are always fun, since the sorts of things you espouse for programming in general—simplicity, speed, respect for sharp tools—are the same things that draw people to rust. And so people can never get why you don't like it more.

    And it's always good fun

    Letting the perfect be the enemy of the good is not going to get more people using #foss.
