They have seen things 😨

The French city of #Lyon will also be replacing Microsoft for #opensource solutions. Really curious what #Linux distro they will choose 👀
Also featured; #Jitsi for video conferencing, #Nextcloud paired with #OnlyOffice for document sharing and co-editing, #Zimbra for email, #Chamilo for online training, and #Matrix for instant messaging. 🔥
#FOSS is all about options:
- I chose not to use #RedHat systems 28 years ago.
- I chose not te use #GNOME 15 years ago
- I chose not to use #SystemD 6 years ago.
- I choose to accelerate the migration of all the #Linux based systems I can to #BSD systems because:
- I choose to keep up with the #UNIX way
- I choose to use stable systems which don't change for the sake of change
- I choose to be part of healthier communities, that don't promote monoculture or fall so easily into arrogance

🎞️ A developer managed to reverse pixelation in video using FFmpeg, GIMP and edge detection - no AI involved.
By analyzing motion and edges across frames, they could reconstruct original content from blurred areas.
It’s a reminder: pixelation is visual, not secure.

KRetro is now an official (wip) KDE app!! If you like retro games and have wanted a native Qt/Kirigami Libretro frontend for Plasma (and Plasma Mobile), this is it!
It's not released yet (name is still subject to change too), and there is still a lot to do, but please do come and test/contribute: https://invent.kde.org/games/kretro

The upcoming skate. from EA will be unsupported on Linux / SteamOS and Steam Deck due to anti-cheat https://www.gamingonlinux.com/2025/07/the-upcoming-skate-from-ea-will-be-unsupported-on-linux-steamos-and-steam-deck-due-to-anti-cheat/
My latest blog post: Migrating my Mastodon server to Masto.host
https://mikecoats.com/migrating-to-masto-host/
I migrated my Mastodon server from a self-hosted DigitalOcean droplet to an instance provided by Masto.host. The process was straightforward and took less than an hour.
#0ad is possibly one of the most advanced #foss games. It's a multi-platform #RTS historical #game, and there's currently an appimage for #Linux users found at #github (in case #flatpak isn't to your liking).
Plays really smoothly, although it eats my 2015's #Macbook Air's battery (running Linux #Mint) for lunch. We're talking that it has about 30 minutes of overall #gameplay before I need to recharge. CPU utilization is at about 50-60%. @play0ad
Steam just added screen reader support in the latest Big Picture Mode beta. On the Deck. On SteamOS. On Linux.
Not hacked in. Not community-patched. Built-in. From Valve.
There's an accessibility tab. There's a screen reader. There's high-contrast mode, UI scaling, color filters, reduced motion, and more.
I can’t believe I’m saying this but: I need a Steam Deck now.
Accessibility isn’t just coming to gaming — it’s here, and it’s official.
Let’s make some noise so they keep going.

France quietly deployed 100,000+ Linux machines in their police force - GendBuntu is a silent EU tech success story
Well done. Let us get free from Microsoft spyware OS. They are not trustworthy vendors, and all taxpayers' money should go to fund open-source apps/software and not to Bill Gates' fortune.
#BillGates and #LinusTorvalds just met each other for the first time
(The other two are Mark Russinovich and Dave Cutler)
Wassup fedi, it's the weekly post again
Well, sad to say again, not really much this week, just had tests from school, very daunting, then after we'll have programs and whatnot,
Haven't been online on the fedi at all this week so I can't provide feedback, but I hope I'll have time to check again next week.
Also I'm trying to learn linux for a project I'm doing and I don't know where to start, so anyone from the #linux community, your help will be greatly appreciated, ps: I'm a complete noob
