I'm working on it 2 days a week beside writing the book.

The next major milestone is receiving emails in the inbox, but I think it will take 2-4 months to have it working.

I also really appreciated your other post[0]. This is what allowed me to understand that SSB is not really a social network but more a p2p protocol to exchange messages where applications can be built on.

The lack of multi-device support isn't too much cumbersome?

Also, do you not fear, due to the gossip protocol, that your private messages may be stored forever by peers and one day, your private key leaks, and all your conversations are publicly exposed?

I would love to hear an experience report from actual users like what is working great, and what is bad.

This is why I started https://OpenSourceWeekly.org

The last issue is precisely about content curation :) https://opensourceweekly.org/issues/8

What I would really love to emerge is a kind of new social network / protocol based only on RSS for following and emails for comments :D

So generally yes SPA are heavier, but they are more powerful. It's a matter of tradeoffs.

Adding more streaming to the cloud bullshit only adds dependencies, points of failure, costs and energy consumption. Especially when it's for playing games that can easily be emulated on any phone today.

Humanity's first goal should be to reduce its energy consumption! This is the opposite of the way forward.

Slack did (do? I no longer use it) it, Scaleway (https://www.scaleway.com/en/docs/console-magic-link-authenti...), medium.com, https://www.topicbox.com/ at least.

Yes (unless you are launching an email provider or an end to end encrypted service), because it reduces the number of passwords users have to keep (one of the biggest problem of our time, password managers are not a viable / good solution) and it reduces your attack surface (you no longer have to store password hashes nor can't chose an insecure hash function).

It's kinda like Oauth 2... but compatible with all emails providers :)

Isn't it Android 6 too much handicaping?

My opinion is that C and C++ can't bring enough security and correctness guarantees for mere mortals (lack of tooling, language features...).

Yes some correct and secure programs are written in C and C++ but it's not and will never be the norm.

I picked Chinese technology because they are rarely promoted but really great.

Regarding the CLI tools it's a great question and I have opened a ticket for a future issue: https://gitlab.com/bloom42/open_source_weekly/-/issues/14

Thank you very much for all your work. Your CLI tools are really making a positive impact on the world of development.

So generally SIMD are used for single thread algorithms.

I try not to include C or C++ projects other than for educational purpose (like the Mandelbrot set) because one of my life's goal is to help the world to transition to a C & C++ free world (other than for kernels...).

I believe that my role is to promote projects which are "building the new world" and thus we need to abandon and port all form insecure core.

I prefixed with "Show HN" because I started this newsletter 7 weeks ago and wanted to 'show it' to HN.

You are right regarding the phrasing (I'm not a native English speaker, so any feedback is welcome). Fixed :)

As you guessed it, I publish a weekly post about open source.

In 2018 only, GitHub had over 100 000 000 repositories, so I'm here to curate this and find the hidden gems.

I try to publish only projects that I think can have a big / positive impact on the world .

Because then it will just be a matter of drivers. Currently, as you say, they need to polish other things like camera handling, audio etc... But once this work is done, it's done. Then porting to new devices should be just a matter of drivers.

> I used to run ubuntu on the nexus 7 in 2013

Today they are bringing an usable touch interface which was not the case.

Regarding the original vision there are not yet there, sure, but they are relentlessly pushing the platforms where Linux can run.

Once the 2 Linux native smartphones are 100% working, it will be easier to add more and more devices.

On the other hand, I've successfully flashed an old Nexus7 tablet which now can be used as a server rather than as a dead brick.

So any improved developer experience to solve the N+1 problem is welcome :)

Obviously the projects I pick may be popular (but some are just gems I found while navigating the internet), but I pick them because I believe they can make a positive impact on the world.

I invite you to read the past issues to change your mind.

You can read the source code or the commits of the website if you are suspicious ;) https://gitlab.com/bloom42/open_source_weekly

You are certainly asking yourself what to do with this sudden amount of free time now we are all in quarantine and no longer have to commute every day.

The answer is obvious: VIDEO GAMES!!

This is why I dedicated this week's issue of OpenSourceWeekly.org to open source & linux gaming.

To receive the next issues, you can subscribe by RSS, Mastodon or Email here: https://opensourceweekly.org

Feedback is welcome :)
