Reproducible BuildsCheck out what's been going on during February in the world of @reproducible_builds ! https://reproducible-builds.org/reports/2026-02/
mekaI'm devastated! I made https://github.com/maolan/maolan work on #FreeBSD and #Linux in about 2.5 months, but I can't make it work on #Windows with VST3. I'm banging my head for the last month on what to try next and I'm afraid I spent more time in windbgx than in any debugger EVER! If you're willing to send a patch or tell me what to do to make it work on Windows, I'll be more than grateful!
Compared to when I asked on Twitter in 2023 amd64 has grown 15% points, arm64 is about the same, and i386 has all but disappeared.
Are any of my OpenBSD followers interested in bringing diff3 improvements from FreeBSD over?

I have a few folks in NetBSD-land who are interested in hearing about changes like this, but not OpenBSD.
FreeBSD had a number of GPL programs in the base system userland. With the switch to BSD diff3 by default the last one has been retired. https://cgit.freebsd.org/src/commit/?id=4d5c434ed16e821003a9c2dc1c1ea245b8d0b678
