I tried to migrate from #OmniFocus to a more open #GTD oriented tool. I found #SuperProductivity, an #opensource multi-platform app supporting the open todo.txt data format. Although my migration attempt failed (at least, so far), for those interested, I've implemented an automated migration tool you can find at https://github.com/auino/omnifocus-to-superproductivity

Interesting read on #Apple drag-to-install feature and its relationship with tools like #Flatpak. https://x.com/aakashgupta/status/2041377689366647222?s=46

Let me explain exactly why Apple still uses drag-to-install in 2026, because the joke here accidentally proves Apple right. A macOS .app is a single self-contained folder disguised as a file. Every dependency, every framework, every resource lives inside it. Drag it to

Just discovered #KDEConnect... great project!
#France leaving #Windows for #Linux is imho a great move toward software freedom, although it opens to new potential issues https://techcrunch.com/2026/04/10/france-to-ditch-windows-for-linux-to-reduce-reliance-on-us-tech/

France's move to ditch Windows for Linux is its latest effort to reduce its reliance on American tech giants.

Also, why isn’t it possible to share an event or attach files to it? #GnomeCalendar
I’ve not investigated this too much, but, personally, I don’t think the problem related to #systemd is the actual storage of age information (we already have other personal information managed in the same way), but the fact this choice is driven by a specific law from a limited set of countries.
I'm using #Gnome #Calendar (version 46.1) and I'm finding a lot of bugs when adding or removing events. Event dates are postponed when adding them, as well as it's not possible (to me) to create a full 1-day event. Is this related to #Office365 or is it a general bug?
I’m wondering why there isn’t some kind of “standard”/common #selfhosted server integrated in most popular #Linux apps to sync all their data and share them across your devices in a seamless way, just like #iCloud or other services do… may be a call for #Gnome or #KDE ?
Found #Flathub (see flathub.org) through apps.gnome.org... it seems a better app store than the native #AppCenter of #Ubuntu
If you also love the "preview files with a single space" features of #macOS, you can install gnome-sushi and unoconv on #Linux to have a similar behavior.
