Linux@programming.dev•The Ongoing BcacheFS Filesystem Stability ControversyEnglish
9·6 months agoI think a filesystem is the kind of thing I’d expect to stay in alpha or beta a really long time 😅 I’m not the most technical linux user thought so maybe that is a long time, I dunno
But like Wayland took ages to be usable. I wonder how long btrfs took to get out of unusable early stages…
Edit: I didn’t see that the dev had said its production ready… I don’t really buy that lol 😅

Linux@programming.dev•Linux Mint 22.2 Adds Native Fingerprint Login SupportEnglish
7·6 months agoNice, that’s a huge deal in terms of modern features. I fucking love my fingerprint reader. I don’t wanna type in my very strong password over and over every time I wander away from my laptop 🥲

Linux@programming.dev•Cross-platform video player GrayJay now available as FlatpakEnglish
13·6 months agoAYYYY, LETS FUKING GOOO
I’ll have to try this again for my little media center setup. If I can sync with desktop I’ll be much happier to use it on mobile
Still struggling to ween myself off youtube recommendations though 😅 thats the biggest thing missing for me, it’s soooo much harder to discover stuff or find things I want to watch with grayjay or newpipe, and if I just jam a million things in my subscriptions I’ll just end up with lots of things I’m not interested in watching at any given point in time
I should probably add more stuff and just add them to more subscription groups which can kinda help with that. If anyone has recommendations I’d welcome them :)

Linux@programming.dev•GNU Taler (a swiss FLOSS alternative to Visa, Mastercard and Paypal) begins operating in Switzerland as Version 1.0 releasesEnglish
8·6 months agoI believe this is what the post looks like when it’s a cross post using the crosspost functionality (like using the crosspost button if your client has one)
For me your post shows up as one of the places this was also posted which tells me this was cross posted from one of the many times this has been crossposted across various comms, including your original post
I really wish the UI was more unambiguous about something being a crosspost (its really unclear on all I’ve used, but some at least let you find out if you go looking and try to check), which is why I always add some text to say “this is a crosspost” and sometimes the original location I got it from when I crosspost stuff

Linux@programming.dev•Kernel Exploitation Techniques: Turning The (Page) TablesEnglish
3·7 months agoCute art, though now any time I see cute aesthetic stuff like that I worry it’s ai generated 😅
There was a YouTube video of an album someone made with really pretty art as the thumbnail/album art and when I asked who made it they said it was ai, so now that’s just always in the back of my head

Linux@programming.dev•KDE dots & stripes glitch when waking from sleepEnglish
3·7 months agoI’m having similar looking graphical issues on fedora with GNOME, amd CPU with integrated graphics.
I was kinda wondering if it might be a graphics driver issue but I’m not super knowledgeable 🤷♂️

Linux@programming.dev•Ubuntu 25.10 Plans To Use sudo-rs By Default For Memory-Safe, Rust-Based sudoEnglish
5·7 months agoIs that good or bad? What license are they using instead?
Edit: looks like they’re using MIT, but I can’t say I really understand the implications of that change

Open Source@lemmy.ml•Mifos - Open Source Core Banking system for Credit Unions and Micro financeEnglish
2·8 months agoI assume it’s probably a colossal process to uproot and move infrastructure, but personally I see that eventual hassle as being better than the project never getting enough momentum in the first place.
I think once you actually have a project and audience you can make all the most ideal choices but they do come with costs that really matter when you’re just starting things
I recognize I’m no expert on running these projects though
For all intents and purposes different Linux distros are different operating systems, built with some number of overlapping components (including the Linux kernel after which they’re named) so unfortunately no :/
Best of luck to you in whatever changes you decide you wanna pursue!

Open Source@lemmy.ml•Mifos - Open Source Core Banking system for Credit Unions and Micro financeEnglish
17·8 months agoIs it better for them to build an open source app and host their meetings on Zoom, a platform familiar to the audience they’re hoping to bring, or for them to just not, and for local cooperative banks to all build their own in-house proprietary banking apps with no open source option existing?
I’d really like it if we stopped letting perfect be the enemy of good. My credit union uses an app that’s just a webview wrapper for their website. I haven’t taken a look at the project but a native app built as an open source community project would be fucking awesome, regardless of whether they host video meetings with zoom or jitsi.
They want their project to succeed. A free software project that dies doesn’t actually provide anyone with freedoms; hosting with the more well known and familiar video hosting software when they have no existing audience is the right choice.
Seems like a really neat project! As more of a ui/ux person than a technical one I use the terminal plenty, but find it more intimidating than I think most linux folks do
I love seeing anything that makes it more user friendly and interactive!

Is it rocky or alma linux that people think is better? I don’t have any need for either but I can never remember which is which 😅
