A service very much like Instagram, but federated. There seems to be quite some enthusiasm around ActivityPub-based projects in general, also including Prismo, Anfora and Funkwhale.

As described here I expressed an interest in a Jitsi Meet app but I wasn't in a hurry.

Now I really need it. The pandemic is causing serious problems throughout the world and some centralized systems are getting really strained as everyone in self-isolation or quarantine moves to video conferencing.

Now would be an excellent time to push Jitsi Meet out the gates. I need to provide video conferencing solutions to several organizations. Please prioritize this if you can.

In my profession I’ve recently been assimilated into the Notion universe. It’s truly brilliant.

But it’s not free (as in freedom). So as I start to pour huge amount of work into structuring and using it, my woes of lock-in comes as expected.

There’s this whole new class of digital tools flexible enough to be shaped by non-coders for virtually any workflow: Notion, Airtable, Coda, Next Matter.

I sense that as the tools of this no-code movement develops further, users realize they don’t need to settle for other people’s workflow but can shape the tools to their liking instead of the other way around. Thus these tools may lay the groundwork for a new level of user expectancy, possibly leaving old rigid tools in the dust.

So, is there anything FOSS that can even begin to compare to Notion?

Reading this makes me grateful that Cloudron exists. @nebulon and @girish should really take pride in what you’ve built. Not only in the software itself but the community around it, that’s very much influenced by the attention and sensitivity you guys nurture it with.

Drone is a Container-Native, Continuous Delivery Platform

Would be interesting to combine it with Gitea enabling a pretty serious code lifecycle platform.

In Sweden, online conferencing has increased 500% over the last week. Properly configured selfhosted Jitsi servers could play an important role for these usecases and for months and months to come.

That feeling when something you’ve wanted for years finally realizes.

Wireguard 1.0.0 is now audited, released and included in the Linux 5.6. Time to get the app going!

This is a great day to be a cloudronite

@yusf said in Changes in 1.25.0:

@girish They sre apparently changing the default to allowing custom usernames. This is terrible for me but it might also be undesired behavior within the general Cloudron experience.

localpart_template: "{{ user.preferred_username }}"

The above setting activated is responsible for retaining the previous behavior, iirc.

It seems that I've cried wolf since when setting up a new test user, no prompt was given to med when signing it in to the LDAP-enabled Matrix server with Element. Good!

@girish Sorry, here it is:

@girish This is the one:

When trying to upgrade the Matrix app:

What's going on here?

Just installed the new PeerTube, but I can't login with the provided credentials, root + changeme.

@msbt Cool, thank you. I'm thinking it should even be disabled by default for the Cloudron Matrix package?

Just read the release notes for Synapse 1.25.0. They include:

The ability for users to pick their own username when using Single Sign-On, right from within Synapse.

This is a red flag for me since I need for the Matrix IDs to strictly map onto the Cloudron usernames. Please disable or opt out of this feature for next release.

@nebulon Excellent, thanks!

@nebulon Can I install the new version (without upgrade) and have it auto-upgrade later on? I have no content currently anyway.
