I have been contributing to it for a few weeks now with the Neostumbler app

Hopefully it's not against the rules, if so, please let me know and I'll remove the post. Anyway:

I made an educational open source game for small kids (2-6 yo) where they can match cute animals (currently sea and dinosaur theme packs).

Features:

• cute pictures
• works on both a phone and a tablet
• multiple theme packs
• fully free, no tracking or anything
• there are multiple flavours, one of which bundles all of the assets and doesn't even have the permission to access the internet <- great if you're extra cautious
• big buttons, no reading necessary, small kids friendly

It can be downloaded both from GitHub and the Play Store.

"privacy friendly online transactions"

I came across this and it's looks interesting it seems to have been out for a while and seems to work well in the demo.

it sounds a bit like Blockchain, but it doesn't seem to be. which i would think makes it more appealing because the setup was easy... but i can't find any examples of it being used in the wild.

i was expecting to see more cases that used it when i saw there is funding for it from https://nlnet.nl/

i think this could be good to add into my app. but i wonder if it might not be a good idea if it hasnt established itself as reliable in the wild.

So this is a pretty big deal to me (it looks recent, just put up last October). One of my big frustrations with Matrix was that they didn’t offer helm charts for a kubernetes deployment, which makes it difficult for entities like nonprofits and community clubs to use it for their own purposes. Those entities need more hardware than an individual self hoster, and may want features like high availability, and kubernetes makes horizontal scaling and high availability easy.

Now, according to the site, many of these features seem to be "enterprise only" — but it's very strangely worded. I can't find anything that explicitly states these features aren't in the fully FOSS self hosted version of matrix-stack, and instead they seem to be only advertised as features of the enterprise version

My understanding of Kubernetes architecture is that it's difficult for people to not do high availability, which is why this makes me wonder.

Looking through the docs for the "enterprise version, it doesn't look like anything really stops me from doing this with the community addition.

They do claim to have rewritten synapse in rust though

Being built in Rust allows server workers to use multiple CPU cores for superior performance. It is fully Kubernetes-compatible, enabling scaling and resource allocation. By implementing shared data caches, Synapse Pro also significantly reduces RAM footprint and server costs. Compared to the community version of Synapse, it's at least 5x smaller for huge deployments.

And this part does not seem to be open source (unless it's rebranded conduit, but conduit doesn't seem to support the newer Matrix Authentication Service.)

So, it looks Matrix/Element has recently become simultaneously much more open source, but also more opaque.

The F-Droid app was created in 2009 in the early days of Android and lots of its code is still that old. While the ecosystem has seen many drastic shifts, the F-Droid community heroically kept the app alive with band aids and chewing gum.

Developer Information / Release Notes

Those commitments and principles are under threat. Synadia, the original donor of the NATS project, has notified CNCF of its intention to “withdraw” the NATS project from the foundation and relicense the code under the Business Source License (BUSL)—a non-open source license that restricts user freedoms and undermines years of open development.

The GCC developers are pleased to announce the release of GCC 15.1.

The C frontend now defaults to the GNU C23 dialect. Some code needs porting for this. Some remaining C23 features have been implemented, as well as some new C2Y features.

The C++ frontend now implements several further C++26 features, some missing C++23 bits, and defect report resolutions. The libstdc++ library now notably experimentally supports std and std.compat modules, more algorithms usable in constexpr functions, flat maps and sets, and std::format support for containers and other ranges.

GCC now implements the Clang [[clang::musttail]] and [[clang::flag_enum]] attributes and their GNU counterparts with the same meaning for the C family language frontends. Support for new counted_by and nonnull_if_nonzero attributes has been added too.

The Fortran frontend has experimental support for unsigned integers.

GCC 15.1 has new COBOL frontend, so far supported only on a few 64-bit targets.

OpenMP support now includes metadirectives, tile and unroll constructs, interop construct and dispatch construct.

The vectorizer can now vectorize loops with early exits when array or buffer sizes aren't statically known. At -O2 can now vectorize some cheaply vectorizable loops with unknown tripcount.

Some code that compiled successfully with older GCC versions might require source changes, see Porting to GCC 15 for details.

For details see GCC 15 Release Series Changes, New Features, and Fixes).
