Guten Morgen, Linux-Community! 🌞

Es ist Samstag, und das Osterwochenende steht vor der Tür! 🎉

Ich wünsche euch allen frohe Ostern!
Da das Wetter am Wochenende nicht gerade einladend sein wird, ist es die perfekte Gelegenheit, sich in ein paar gute Bücher zu vertiefen und neues Wissen zu sammeln.
Nutzen wir die Zeit, um mehr über Linux zu lernen, spannende Projekte zu planen oder einfach in die Welt der Open Source einzutauchen. Lasst uns das Beste aus diesem Wochenende machen, egal wie das Wetter ist! Habt einen fantastischen Freitag und ein wunderbares Osterwochenende! 🐧✨

Bis nächsten Dienstag!

⚠️ Microsoft just made a bold move — and developers are feeling it.

Cursor and Windsurf, both VSCode forks, have been blocked from accessing the official extension marketplace.
🧱 Proprietary walls are going up
🛠️ Developer workflows disrupted
🚫 Marketplace access revoked
🔓 Spotlight now on open alternatives like OpenVSX

This raises real questions about ecosystem control vs innovation — and who gets to decide the rules.

Dear @georgetakei
Sorry to bother you.

I spent my career working on policy issues in Free & #OpenSource software. I didn't write the code for Mastodon/fediverse, but I invented the licensing structure it uses called Affero #GPL —

its licensing ensures equal rights between companies, individuals, hobbyists, & enthusiasts.

You've been a hero of mine since I was 11 years old. I have been crying with joy for 5 minutes upon discovering you use this platform.

Thank you for everything.

back in the old days installing Linux destroyed whatever was on the disk - often Windows

slowly tools matured to help partition disks and install multiple operating systems

a key step was setting up the boot loader - a rite of passage for many Linux enthusiasts in the 2000s

in the days before GRUB we had LILO, and would spend time editing lilo.conf to get Windows on the boot menu, and then to "chainload"

Figma tried to trademark 'Dev Mode' and the coding world collectively lost its mind. Here's why common dev terms becoming corporate property matters more than you think.
