New #Disintermedia blog post, using the metaphor of a cafe to tease out different aspects for running a platform cooperative using Free Code software;
https://disintermedia.net.nz/from-competing-digital-cages-to-cooperative/
Well, another recycled one really, this one a couple of times now. It was originally published on the archived CoActivate version of the Disintermedia blog, then reposted on the Bridge Seat Co-op. It's the final repost in a series of 5 posts related to Bridge Seat (see links).

Vide-coded apps published as Free Code are like foundations made of concrete mixed with oatmeal instead of sand. Do not build on them. Ever.

Fortunately some developers stepped up to fork the Simple apps under the name Fossify;
So we can still have that simple, pleasant app experience we know and love, with regular updates via F-Droid or our app manager of choice.
This is a textbook example of how Free Code licenses, which enshrine the software freedoms of the people who use software, can protect us from enshittification.

#GameDev #FreeCode #Godot #CSharp If anyone wants to play with this, the code is here:
https://github.com/IanBadcoe/SubD_Test
(to be precise, that is the test project which has the real repo as a sub-module)
Semi-polished and moderately tested, there are some awkward corners...
The features are:
- build-control-mesh from cubes (lame)
- build-control-mesh from "cylinders" (prisms)
-- radius, roll, pitch, yaw for each section
-- set edges/verts sharp, or tag them for later retrieval
-- add holes, set their edges sharp or tag them
- normals for all polys/edges/facesOmissions:
- no UVs yet
- there is a ton of Linq used, it works for me in editor, but may give GC stalls if used a lot in game...Further work:
- I want to add a feature beyond "holes" where I can turn a hole into a "socket" into which another surface could be plugged, producing side-branches...
- if performance is a problem, rewrite in C++...Talk to me if you need anything. I do bite, but I am (on average) a long, long way away from you 😄

@paoloredaelli
> OpenVibe seems to be proprietary softwareThey are published some code here but I can't tell at a glance if it's the full app code or not;
If not, it may be like Loops; developing behind close doors until it's relatively stable, or until they get time to tidy up their full code for publication? But I definitely won't be using it until it's available in F-Droid.

Muito bacana ver o poder do software livre e do código aberto sendo reconhecido. E quando isso ocorre em uma cerimônia internacional com o do Oscar então, melhor ainda. Flow, o longa ganhador da categoria de Melhor Animação, não possui diálogos e foi inteiramente produzido com o software livre Blender.
👏👏👏

Good on the German authorities who set up the Sovereign Tech Fund. To help fund the maintenance of core software that most people have never heard, but depend on every day. I want to see every government in the world setting up a similar fund, and having them coordinate their efforts.

"Decentralized communication protocol Matrix shifts to less-permissive AGPL open source license."
"AGPLv3 is a recognized open source license, even though not everyone is a fan of its inherent restrictions."
#PaulSawers, 2023
Yeah, we get it Paul. Having to help with the dishes after you eat your free lunch is "restrictive". It's more "permissive" to let people waltz in, eat their fill, and bugger off, without being expected to help out 🙄

Have a FREE AMOS Utility on me - get your colour palette hexadecimal values, *AND* load them via an array into ‘Default Palette’. 😱
The video explains all. 😎

"This novel camera system will open new avenues of research for scientists and allow filmmakers to produce dynamic, accurate depictions of how animals see the world around them, the authors say. The system is built from commercially available cameras, housed in a modular, 3D-printed casing, and the software is available open-source, allowing other researchers to use and build on the technology in the future."

Does the Free Software Directory archive source code for all the projects it indexes, along with version history? If not, why not?

Some good advice from @brainwane on finding your way into contributing to Free Code projects;
-
"This year marks the 10th anniversary of Hacktoberfest, and we’re calling on your support! Whether it’s your first time participating—or your tenth—it’s almost time to hack out four pristine pull/merge requests as we continue our month of support for open source."
-
What's the best self-hostable tool for adding a survey to your website. Looking for something that's 100% Free Code, not a mostly proprietary tool with source code released for a few non-essential bits released for openwashing purposes.
This article is a bit dated (2017):
https://opensource.com/article/17/2/tools-online-surveys-polls
... but it lists LimeSurvey, JD Esurvey, Quick Survey, and TellForm. A quick web search also turned up Surveyjs and KoboToolbox.

I was thinking about a model for doing Free Code maintainership.
I know a few older hackers who can't be bothered writing whole software packages themselves anymore. But if there's a project they personally use or care about, and they're familiar with the programming language(s) used (or willing to brush up), they might be willing to review and merge patches.
Sparing enthusiastic coders from review duties, and maybe increasing code quality.
-
It just occurred to me that it could be really useful to have a standardised HX (Human eXperience) rating system for Free Code apps. With a regular review process (eg annual) by a group of HX experts who support software freedom, and a set of trademarked symbols illustrating the ratings. Once reviewed, app projects could display the symbol on their homepage, if they want to.

This!
"I'm coming to understand that open source is largely about a community and only partially about shared code development. Since I'm a writer I'm especially intereted in the crucial role that documenters (and community managers!) play in that community."

I *love* the way @nickcolley prioritizes accessibility issues in the Semaphore.social tracker. That's a fantastic Free Code dev pattern that I'd love to see widely adopted.
Another pattern I'd like to see, although it's not so easy to do in existing code forge platforms, is a second issue tracker specifically for #UX issues. Again with accessibility as a top priority.

Now that a bunch of code in GitHub repos isn't visible without running MicroSoft's proprietary JS, it would be great to have a software freedom-protecting front-end for browsing GH itself. Of course, Free Code projects moving off GH onto community-hosted code forges is the ideal solution, but in the meantime...

Looks like the US now has an answer to the EU Next Generation Internet funding program. The deadline for their next funding round is in September.

Another shameless plug for the Simple range of apps for Android. I've installed a bunch of them using F-Droid. I love them so much I wish Tibor Kaputa (the developer) would put out a Simple OS; a deGoggled Android fork with all the Simple apps as defaults, and the Simple aesthetic applied to the UI of the whole OS.
If you use Tibor's apps, please consider supporting his work:

#TIL about Pursuance, a project developing a free code web platform that combines chat and task management functions. According to the blurb on their code forge:
"We are in the process of integrating with Hypothesis, the web annotation platform, so that our users can coordinate crowdsourced investigative resource more effectively."
https://github.com/PursuanceProject/pursuance
#TIL about #Hypothesis too :)

Tibor Kaputa spends his days developing the Simple range of apps for Android-based OS and makes them available free of charge on F-Droid. I use a bunch of them and they're fantastic. Please consider trying out his apps and making a contribution to support his work:
-
@tetrislife @VictorVenema Sounds like hypothes.is is worth a bit more investigation. I've only had a quick skim so far. They describe their project goals here:

Anyone one know of a #FreeCode magnifying glass app for Android? Ideally one available in F-Droid.

Just added Session to the free code chat app list I curate, and did some general tidy up:

#TIL about Zanata:
"a web-based translation platform for Translators to translate documentation and software online using a web browser."
https://translate.zanata.orgThe service is run by Red Hat and software developers can set up their projects to be translated here, at no charge.
The platform itself runs on free code software:

@cubicgarden a #FreeCode option that could replace both #Zoom and a white board is #BigBlueButton. You can try it out with the #NZOSS Community Room here, details here:

#NicolasAuvray gave a lightening talk at #FOSDEM 2019 about #0AD, the #FreeCode realtime strategy game:
https://archive.fosdem.org/2019/schedule/event/0ad_rts/ -
@ptman #FreeCode has been an unmaintained archive since the name change from #FreshMeat in 2014. The active replacement is #FreshCode.club, see:
http://fossil.include-once.org/freshcode/wiki/AboutGood question though. That page mentions:
* JSON-based database exchange feeds and defining releases.json.
* Automated release updates from VCS systems and project websites.... which could be the answer to both our questions.

#TIL about #Librerouter, a project that aims to make it easier for non-geek rural communities to create #MeshNetworks. The project outputs include an #OpenHardware router with a #FreeCode OS:
