Just a FYI, #Lomiri (Unity 8) being merged in #postmarketOS is a massive achievement.
Essentially, this tightens the gap between pmOS and the near-Android Ubuntu Touch UI that lots of people liked. Thanks @justsoup!

If virtually every known figure [1] from the Silicon Valley is embracing openly alt-right opinions at this point, speaking against democracy, gender equality, and safety regulations, can we safely call VCs and big tech companies a bunch of fascists by now?
(1. that is, a16z/Andreessen, Graham/YC, Zuckerberg, Altman, Thiel, Musk, and a bunch of others)

I will present Mirror Hall for the first time at #FOSDEM next month [1], and wrote a guide on how to develop similar home-grown desktop streamer solutions last month [2].
There's only a couple of weekends until then for small improvements to the app, so if you have any particular wishes let me know! 🪄

In terms of accessible #UX for neurodiversity, one of the wonders of @Mastodon in my experience is the ability to remember things I saw in my timeline in a consistent order.
The fact I can often rebuild thought processes just by moving through the timeline again is something I missed from real-world environments.
On other platforms, one click will result in a re-randomization of the posts interleaved by viral slop, which keeps bombing the attention span back to zero.
Please keep it this way.

🖨️ Semi-OT: I find #printers discarded on the street almost daily, but seldom other electronic objects.
I rescued a couple in the past years (oddly enough, I love old printers!) and all of them worked flawlessly but often had horrible firmware.
I am starting to believe that people don't own printers anymore not because they don't want/need/have space, but because they have gotten so atrociously capitalistic that it is impossible to operate one without huge costs and tons of proprietary apps

🪞 Introducing Mirror Hall, an app to turn any Linux devices into a second wireless monitor!
We use semi-custom P2P screen sharing optimized for low latency. Only Mutter-based DEs are currently supported as senders, whereas all DEs work as receivers.
This is our first unstable release, sp please be kind and report issues. If you are an #ARM user, we would love your help testing the gstreamer pipeline on new phones!

Two years after leaving Twitter, this account has finally overtaken the amount of people who followed us there 🎉
The #Fediverse still feels like a place to discuss with talented people, and it replaced the feeling of doomscrolling with that of being in a real, vibrant community. Thank you all.
