Announcing Official Puppeteer Support for Firefox https://hacks.mozilla.org/2024/08/puppeteer-support-for-firefox/ #WebDevelopment #BrowserTech #OpenSource

Hi Mastodon! I'm a DevOps engineer, mostly Kubernetes, Jenkins and a lot of Linux boxes. In my spare time I make small open source things that I will share here. I also write notes at https://thelinuxnotes.com https://github.com/epogonii #introduction #Linux #DevOps #GNOME #OpenSource

The European Union surpassed the United States as the first source of pushes to public Git repositories on GitHub, and that doesn't count the alternatives like Gitlab and Codeberg where I assume there's an even larger fraction of European contributions. https://innovationgraph.github.com/global-metrics/git-pushes #OpenSource #OSS #FOSS

"A developer frustrated by Adobe's cancellation fees used Anthropic's Opus 5.5 model and pure Rust to rewrite the entire Creative Cloud suite as open-source alternatives. The seven applications — PhotoCraft (Photoshop), VectorCraft (Illustrator), FilmCraft (Premiere Pro), EffectCraft (After Effects), LightCraft (Lightroom), DesignCraft (InDesign), and PdfCraft (Acrobat) — were built from scratch using clean-room reverse engineering without touching Adobe's original code. Within the first week, the GitHub repository garnered 24K stars. The apps run natively on macOS, Windows, and Linux, with some capable of running in browsers via WebAssembly. Shortly after, the same team (ArtCraft) released three Microsoft Office clones: GridCraft (Excel), WordCraft (Word), and DeckCraft (PowerPoint). All three replicate the familiar UI structures — cell layouts, document editing, slide masters, animations — and are completely free, open-source, subscription-free, and written in Rust." https://www.besthub.dev/articles/ai-generated-open-source-suite-artcraft-clones-adobe-targets-microsoft-office-07a368afb64b #AI #GenerativeAI #LLMs #OpenSource #ArtCraft #Adobe #Opus #SoftwareDevelopment #Programming #VibeCoding

California’s attack on 3D printing is heading to the Senate. Here’s how it has changed, and why we still oppose it. https://www.eff.org/deeplinks/2026/06/we-can-still-stop-californias-3d-printer-surveillance-scheme #privacy #opensource #3dprinting

"FlatPress is much more than its code. The project lives through the people who report bugs, contribute translations, develop plugins and themes, help others in the forum, or simply share their experiences." So true! Please say hello to the new maintainer of the @flatpress@fosstodon.org blogging engine, @Fraenkiman@mastodon.social : https://www.flatpress.org/2026/06/24/a-new-chapter-for-flatpress-and-thank-you-arvid/ #foss #OpenSource #blogging

The legendary meme distro returns after nearly two decades with a modern Debian Trixie base, KDE Plasma 6, and a whole lot of pink nostalgia. https://linuxiac.com/hannah-montana-linux-is-back-and-yes-its-real/ #linux #opensource

AI did not create the FFmpeg MagicYUV bug. But it did create the patch race: faster discovery, faster reports, faster releases, and the same old human bottleneck of verifying what is actually running. Mastodon 4.6.2 was basically a one-line FFmpeg Dockerfile update. That tiny change says a lot. https://s.ee/5b6J #OpenSource #Security #Mastodon #AI

The @EUCommission@ec.social-network.europa.eu just released a statement positioning open source as central to #Europe’s #TechSovereignty. We couldn’t agree more. #OpenSource is critical to a robust and independent society. Here’s our full statement: https://blog.joinmastodon.org/2026/06/europes-new-tech-strategy-puts-open-source-front-and-centre/ #Mastodon #Fediverse #SocialWeb #OpenWeb #DigitalSovereignty

Linus has nothing to worry about; he's a millionaire tech celebrity and can retire from his position as "Benevolent Dictator for Life" at any time. And kudos to him for his good fortune at making the #1 operating system for billionaires and anarchists of all stripes alike - nobody likes being told what to do; it's understandable... it would just be nice if the people at the top had as much empathy and compassion as everyone else down here struggling to get by in a world controlled by the fantasies, dreams, and whims of a deluded few who no longer have to engage in our crass reality of precarity. #Luddism #OpenSource

Seize ownership. You fork, not to make another browser to compete, you fork to say "this is the source of truth now, out of Mozilla's hands". Fork #Firefox, call it NotFirefox (the name doesn't matter) and declare this as the place for volunteers to submit their MRs, all Firefox-based browsers commit to using that repo as their base. Take ownership of the community away from #Mozilla, make them have to do the merging and rebasing work for their AI shitbrowser. #enshitfication #opensource

Firefox 153 has been released! This is the last monthly release before the release schedule speeds up. It enables container tabs for all, QR code link sharing and – at long last – nicely rounded bottom window corners on GTK desktops.

The fact that #Anthropic had to take down #Fable5 for users outside of the US by order of the US government shows how critical it is today to rely on US services Imagine they'd do the same with #WhatsApp, you will not be able to talk to your #family and friends anymore This should be a wake-up call for everyone to rely on your own server infrastructure, running with #OpenSource #software #autonomy #digitalindependence #europe #european #decentralization #selfhosting #ArcaneChat #android #ai

Hi, I'm Soumen, an open-source programmer moving into neuromorphic computing. I'm building Spiyk: free, low-cost tools to learn brain-inspired computing without expensive hardware. v1 is a browser-based neuron simulator that runs on older laptops and phones. Next: spiking networks, fixed-point mode, FPGA. https://spiyk.github.io/ #Introduction #Neuromorphic #SpikingNeuralNetworks #EdgeAI #OpenSource

Please let us know in the comments what you think and if everything works. #Pixelfed #Vernissage #Linux #OpenSource #Flatpak

A tip for users of our experimental instance mementomori.social: You can enable the algorithmic "For you" feed from the top right corner of the Home feed. When you turn it on, it will instantly switch to a ranked feed that prioritizes posts based on who you follow, who you comment on, and what you like or boost. If you also toggle on "Include posts from people you don't follow," you'll see trending content across the Fediverse based on your interests. Unlike Trending tab, For you -feed is personal. The logic is similar to pre-Musk Twitter but user-focused and not corporate-owned. The Trending tab remains unchanged, and /explore shows posts from roughly the past 6-12 hours, with a strong focus on the most recent ones. A post that gets massive engagement might stick around a bit longer, but most cycle out within half a day. Your own For you page changes every time you click the menu, refresh the page, or return. This is ongoing, experimental work. The PR draft and source code are available here: https://github.com/mementomori-social/mastodon/pull/4 #MementoMoriSocial #Mastodon #MastoAdmin #OpenSource #BuildInPublic #Algorithm #AlgorithmicFeed #Algorithms
