@enigma9o7:matrix.orgenigma9o7 (Old)element isn't exacatly "high performance", it requires all the resources of a full fledged web browser16:49:13
@enigma9o7:matrix.orgenigma9o7 (Old)but i mean yeah it performs well16:49:41
@rdfg77:kde.orglinsuiSounds interesting. I'm not sure if it will have a native UI though...16:53:30
@rdfg77:kde.orglinsuiWill you package it for F-Droid?16:53:54

It's QT so probably not.

I can try once the source has landed or merged into upstream …

@SylvieLorxu:matrix.orgSylviaWonder what the FSF is going to be doing now, given they explicitly say on https://www.fsf.org/twitter they refuse to run the non-Free JS and use Choqok22:19:23

@SylvieLorxu:matrix.orgSylviaInteresting, the Dutch government forced Logius to share the source code of the government authentication app DigiD under the EUPL. Sadly only a snapshot of it, which makes it useless in the sense of freedom as DigiD servers actively block authentication from old DigiD versions, but still an interesting move in the right direction however small: https://github.com/MinBZK/woo-besluit-broncode-digid-app18:37:31
@mathijs:matrix.vgorcum.comMathijsfucking finally19:53:22
@mathijs:matrix.vgorcum.comMathijsalso: why is digid 1. not FOSS in the first place and 2. owned by a private company?19:53:56
@mathijs:matrix.vgorcum.comMathijsstupid dutch government19:54:04
@mathijs:matrix.vgorcum.comMathijsalso also: 'first commit'? give me a break19:54:22
@mathijs:matrix.vgorcum.comMathijsotherwise you're, of course, right20:30:17
@mathijs:matrix.vgorcum.comMathijsit is a tiny stepo20:30:26
@mathijs:matrix.vgorcum.comMathijs * it is a tiny step20:30:27
@mathijs:matrix.vgorcum.comMathijs * it is a tiny step in the right direction20:40:56
@SylvieLorxu:matrix.orgSylviaYeah it's definitely not good enough21:05:55
@SylvieLorxu:matrix.orgSylviaBut it's definitely better than nothing21:06:00
@SylvieLorxu:matrix.orgSylviaIf the person who managed to get this opened can just keep doing this occasionally we might be able to F-Droid this with small patches that are a huge pain to reapply every huge update like Telegram FOSS21:07:08
@SylvieLorxu:matrix.orgSylviaWould be something21:07:10
@mathijs:matrix.vgorcum.comMathijsAlso, C# 🤢21:47:53
@SylvieLorxu:matrix.orgSylviaI think C# is quite nice syntax-wise. I like the design. I just don't like the implementation, I think NuGet is way overcomplicated for example and the strong Windows dependency on everything makes the language a problematic choice. If C# was properly cross platform, I think I might prefer it over Java. But it's not, no matter how much Microsoft says .Net Core is cross platform. Because .Net Core is an almost unusably small subset of the language21:59:04
@mathijs:matrix.vgorcum.comMathijsIts mostly the fact that c# is joined at the hip to microsoft that makes me dislike it Isuppose22:07:54
@mathijs:matrix.vgorcum.comMathijs* Its mostly the fact that c# is joined at the hip to microsoft that makes me dislike it I suppose22:08:09
@mathijs:matrix.vgorcum.comMathijsI have no strong feelings towards the technical details of the language22:09:29
