pw-videomix v0.3.0
A lot of new features were added within the last year. Not all are finished. The reason, why I hesitated to release a new version. But the next step needs to be taken. So the motto of 0.3.0 is:
"Half Baked"
new:
- Saving and loading project files.
- New nodes (kaleidoscope, video source, encoder sink for video files, control nodes).
- MIDI devices to control values.
- Removed binaries from the source repository. The Linux binary will be updated regularly now. There won't be a Windows binary in the near future.
- Connections update their resolution automatically. No reconnects needed anymore.

On February 14, we celebrate I ❤️ Free Software Day!
https://Internet.nl is free/open source and is reused by a.o. 🇧🇷 https://top.nic.br and 🇩🇰 https://sikkerpånettet.dk. This is possible thanks to free/open source software we build upon, such as Python (@ThePSF) and @django.
We also use free/open source sw in our work environment, such as @nextcloud, @libreoffice, and Jitsi.
We try to give back through 💶 donations, ⁉️ feature requests and ⚙️ code.

Our motto is »#Linux #OpenSource News & #KnowHow for #Office Tasks.«
Our posts are for #solopreneurs, #trainers, #facilitators, and everybody else who tackles their office tasks using open source software under Linux.
While we appreciate #portability, we're strictly Linux-only. With respect to other operating systems: no bashing, no praise, no comparisons. We've already made our choice.

I've just released SharpSync, my pure .NET file synchronization library supporting multiple storage backends with bidirectional sync, conflict resolution, and progress reporting. It is needed for a future project I'm now working on, but I decided to #OpenSource it.

Freed a chromebook (Acer 14 CB3-431) from Google. Got it used for 65€. Still has the power for 5 hours of movie (full hd/h265) or 6-7 hours of working with LibreOffice.

and a good handle on how things work together, across teams and projects.

Little Bits: Issue #33 For January 2026
A brief life update of challenges and a loads of little bits to explore covering an array of topics such as blogs, gaming, open source and security.
The OSUOSL has been saved! Here are their plans for the future:
The fediverse now has a mobile-first personal server called Holos by @HolosSocial (via @apps). It's a full ActivityPub server that runs on your Android device (iOS coming soon). You own your identity with a custom domain and your followers live on your device.
Project URL: https://holos.social
Key features:
✅ Your server on your phone – Your identity, keys, and followers live on your device, not a giant shared server.
✅ Custom domain identity – Permanently own your handle (@you@yourname.com) and take it anywhere.
✅ True E2EE for DMs – Real end-to-end encryption for private conversations, a major privacy upgrade.
✅ Relay-based connectivity – Connects to the wider fediverse via relays, so a personal server is practical on mobile.
Open source, privacy-focused, and built to give you real ownership in the fediverse. The Android version is available now.

Daniel asks what #FreeSoftware #OpenSource could have been procured and developed with such sums and how you feel about when you see those numbers. He also fears this trend will continue.
