Any Python folk following me?
I’m looking for personal recommendations of good Python and Django open source projects.
I want to get a sense of good, idiomatic real life Python code.

This site does considerably better than just asking "Is this the year of the Linux Desktop?".
It lists and breaks down the current status of major software support in Linux, so you can decide whether the switch is right for you at the current moment, as well as a guide to help you make an informed choice on distro and know what else you might be getting into.

#FediAlgo (the customizable timeline algorithm / filtering system for your Mastodon feed) v1.2.2 is deployed now. Has a switch that makes sure any #hashtags / users / etc. that you follow are displayed as filter options even if they don't meet the minimum number of recent toots threshold.
Also a bunch of bug fixes and small improvements.

#LibreOffice turns 15 years old! a celebration of freedom, collaboration, and open technologies and standards: https://blog.documentfoundation.org/blog/2025/09/28/libreoffice-turns-15/ #foss #OpenSource #freesoftware
Gibts aus der #OpenSource- / #FOSS-/.. Szene Tips für brauchbare, bestenfalls ebenbürtige Alternativen zur #Adobe Creative Cloud? Insbes. #Photoshop, #Illustrator (vektorbasiertes Grafik- und Zeichenprogramm), #InDesign (Layout- und Satzprogramm für Desktop-Publishing).
Gesucht sind etablierte Alternativen für den produktiven+stabilen Einsatz in einer großen gemeinnützigen Organisation auf Win11/SaaS (ca. 25 Arbeitsplätze sind damit auszustatten).
(#Affinity scheint eine interoperable kostengünstigere Alternative zu sein, ist aber nicht OSS.)
Photoshop = Gimp, ok.
Illustrator = ? (inkscape?)
InDesign = ?
Danke. 🕊️
Was wird da z.B. in Schleswig Holstein als Ersatz genutzt? @sven @digitalhubsh @webmontagkiel
Gibt es da was im Kontext zu #opendesk @zendis ?

Over next 1-2 weeks,I'd appreciate an extended thread re: #FrameworkLaptop, #mntreform, & #FOSS.
TL;DR on my idiosyncratic needs:
* minimize binary firmware blobs¹
* Having 2 disks in RAID-1²
* Runs stock Official #Debian stable³
* Understanding best current replacement keyboard options⁴
Is @frameworkcomputer or @mntmn better for me?
As I **hate** “please boost” requests, I don't so-ask, *but* I'd be glad if ∃ active engagement on this.

🐣 無聊電子雞 (Bored Tamagotchi)
✨ 100% Google AI Studio 輔助開發 (Vibe Coding)
閒著無聊用 AI 寫了一個 3D Voxel 風格的電子雞！🐔
完全在瀏覽器運行，不用後端也能玩。
可以餵食、鏟屎、運動減肥，還可以進化喔～
因為是開源的，歡迎大家拿去魔改！
I built a 3D Voxel Tamagotchi using Google AI Studio! 🥚
Runs entirely in your browser (React + Three.js).
Feed them, clean them, and watch them evolve.
Fully open-source, feel free to fork it!
Google AI Studioを使って、3Dボクセルの「たまごっち」を作ってみました！👾
ブラウザだけで動きます（バックエンド不要）。
餌をあげたり、掃除したり、進化させたりできます。
オープンソースなので、ぜひ遊んでみてください！

Here is this week's #Linux and #OpenSource news video!
I sound awful in this one, cause I've got the biggest case of the "man flu" I ever had, meaning I've been moaning and complaining about feeling terrible for 6 days straight, and my partner has incredibly enough not donated me to a shelter for weak boys yet. Enjoy the video!

We're excited to announce that #Fedify has been awarded a service agreement by the @sovtechfund! The Sovereign Tech Fund is investing €192,000 in Fedify's development over 2025–2026 to strengthen the fediverse ecosystem.
This investment will enable us to significantly expand Fedify's capabilities and make it easier for developers to build federated applications. The commissioned work focuses on improving developer experience, adding comprehensive debugging tools, and ensuring Fedify remains at the forefront of #ActivityPub innovation.
Here are the key milestones we'll be delivering:
Web framework integrations: Official adapters for Next.js, Elysia, Fastify, and Koa, making it seamless to add federation to existing applications
ActivityPub debug & development tools: Real-time debug dashboard with WebSocket monitoring, federation lifecycle hooks, and implementation checklist CLI to make federation interactions transparent and debuggable
Storage & infrastructure enhancements: SQLiteKvStore for robust file-based storage across Node.js, Deno, and Bun, plus performance optimizations for production deployments
Comprehensive documentation & examples: Specialized tutorials for building federated blogs, social networks, and content platforms, with complete working examples and migration guides
Observability & monitoring: Full OpenTelemetry metrics, performance benchmarking tools, and federation health dashboards for production environments
Advanced features & standards: FEP-ef61 (Portable Objects) support and implementation of emerging Fediverse Enhancement Proposals to keep Fedify at the cutting edge
All developments will be open source and available for the entire #fediverse community to use, contribute to, and build upon.
