There is hope in Hungary. Let's see what Orbán actually does when he loses though. It's an earth sign of what Trump will do in November after losing the midterms.

Det er loppemarked på Damsgård skole 11. og 12. april, og alle er hjertelig velkommen.

Innlevering av lopper:

Torsdag 9. april, kl. 18–21
Fredag 10. april, kl. 18–21

Alt som er helt og fint er av interesse.
(ikke møbler, hvitevarer, gamle PC-er, videospillere, kassetter, leksikon og’ tykke’ tv'er).

Damsgård skole ligger i Herman Grans vei på Laksevåg, rett ovenfor Damsgård Hovedgård.

Ta gjerne kontakt på [email protected] dersom du har spørsmål.

I have to say that I am extremly surprised about the functionality in the Proton Apps. At the start I was just trying to get away from Google, and migration of E-Mail and documents went like a charm. Calendar is ok, but Photos are not (using Immich). Now I am also using Authenticator.

But the real easteregg is Proton Pass, which has the same functionality as 1Password. I'll keep office stuff in 1Password, and private in Proton Pass. Setup sharing with family as well.

I've not covered the TDF/Collabora "sitch" as it's been big on implication, short on specifics (not much to write about when half the story is unsaid – the drama llamas have managed fine sans full details, ofc 🦙).

TDF's latest post/salvo puts names on things.

It's not the Netflix mini-series of battling egos and board coups some pictured, more cosy procurement arrangements that breached non-profit law, and an impasse on sorting it out…

…which led to a falling out.

Let's put an end to the speculation - TDF Community Blog

Ideally, we would have preferred to avoid this post. However, the articles and comments published in response to Collabora’s and Michael Meeks’ biased posts compel us to provide this background information on the events that led to the current situation. Unfortunately, we have to start from the very beginning, but we’ll try to keep it brief. The launch of the LibreOffice project and The Document Foundation was handled with great enthusiasm by the founding group. They were driven by a noble goal, but also by a bit of healthy recklessness. After all, it was impossible to imagine what would happen after September 28, 2010, the date of the announcement. At the time, nobody could imagine that the companies that had supported OpenOffice.org until then would create a project to kill LibreOffice. Also, if the project were to be successful, it would require resources greater than those available, and above all, a deep management experience. Fortunately, the project grew quite rapidly. However, the founders’ different backgrounds and opinions were at the same time the reason for some bold decisions – many of which right – as well as a few mistakes, which are the root cause of some of the current

Just cancelled my Google One after I managed to move everything over to Proton and self-hosted Immich.

There are still some services left which are difficult to migrate, but I'd say more than 90% of the (easy) work is done.

Some things however are not so easy to replace (Chromecast, OAuth, Android) yet.

And yes, I have been 100% Meta-free for a year or so.

REMINDER: This is not an ENERGY crisis but a FOSSIL FUEL dependency crisis.

Modern energy systems based on renewables are absolutely possible. Don’t let oil execs and autocrats tell you otherwise.

A decentralised energy system based on wind and solar is far less vulnerable to war, blockades and oil shocks than one built around fossil fuels.

Ich hab mal aufgearbeitet wie der Konflikt zwischen @tdforg und @collabora sich über die Jahre aufgearbeitet hat.

Und wie nun die aktuelle Krise aussieht:

LibreOffice am Abgrund: Wie die Document Foundation ihre eigenen Gründer vor die Tür setzte - Linux Guides Community

LibreOffice steckt in der schwersten Krise seit seiner Gründung. Die Document Foundation hat im April 2026 über 30 Kernentwickler aus ihren Gremien ausgeschlossen - darunter die Leute, die fast die Hälfte des gesamten Codes geschrieben haben. Der Trick: Erst verklagt man den Partner, dann schliesst man seine Mitarbeiter mit Verweis auf die laufende Klage aus. Collabora, das Unternehmen hinter den ausgeschlossenen Entwicklern, schlägt mit einem eigenen Desktop-Produkt zurück, das technologisch einen klaren Bruch mit dem alten LibreOffice darstellt. Droht LibreOffice das gleiche Schicksal wie Apache OpenOffice? Eine Analyse der Eskalationsspirale - vom gescheiterten Branding-Experiment 2020 über den Krieg um die Cloud bis zum endgültigen Bruch im April 2026.
