#UntrackMe 2.0 will be available soon.

Fully rebuilt with a new approach: the app now registers as a browser on Android 12+. Every link you tap goes through UntrackMe first, gets cleaned of tracking params, redirected to a privacy-friendly frontend if relevant, then handed off to the browser or app of your choice.

It also follows redirect chains to bypass tracking shorteners and unwrap any wrappers such as Google redirects.

I’m for digital commons. Meaning that I believe in shared governance. By design, a company has to make money, and its governance is driven by this goal.

We already saw a lot of companies, which were exactly what you describe ("developers set up so they could earn a living while they worked on the free software"), taking a project lead and becoming basically project owner. From that, it’s easy to become Oracle/Apache/RedHat and mute community voice.

It’s easy to spit on "foundation administration", but a common healthy governance needs a structure. Maybe the current one is not the best, but we should work on allowing users to have an impact on the project, and I think it’s on the right track.

Meritocracy is shit. People allowed to decide software milestone/direction should also be people that don’t contribute at all to it.

For the record: I firmly believe than meritocracy do not exist, but I agree with the substance of the text

Kicking out corporation is always a good move #changemymind

Ideally, we would have preferred to avoid this post. However, the articles and comments published in response to Collabora’s and Michael Meeks’ biased posts compel us to provide this background information on the events that led to the current situation.

@libreoffice

@libreoffice Good! Getting rid of corporate influence in your org is the way to go however painful it might seem.

Oracle promised to keep developing MySQL when they took over. Instead, MySQL has been slowly dying ever since because Oracle wants to sell their main product.

Red Hat promised to leave CentOS alone. They killed CentOS immediately. It's pretty tricky to be more evil than Oracle, but they managed somehow.

Corporate rot forced the Firefox team to abandon privacy guarantees.

L’interview d’Emmodem qui passe sur FranceInfo ! Nice 😀

This was initially a followers-only thread, but that prevents any interaction between users. So here it is publicly.
I've decided to close the Fedilab Open Collective account, and I want to be transparent about why. I'm a solo developer behind all these projects, and that matters to understand what follows. (1/4)

@arretsurimages
Bravo à elle.

(Après s’il faut écrire un livre et le faire éditer chez Fayard à chaque fois, c’est une recette un peu longue quand même. 😐)

Bonjour à toutes et à tous 👋 !

Nous avons préparé un questionnaire que nous serions heureux de vous voir remplir. Il s'agit de mieux comprendre vos attentes et usages sur mastodon et le fediverse vis à vis de la culture.

Il est un poil long mais ça devrait nous permettre d'en tirer des apprentissages précis et intéressants.. et bien évidemment nous partagerons ici les résultats !

N'hésitez pas à relayer, y compris en dehors du fediverse! Merci! ✌️

Comme promis, voici le schéma qu'on a construit en live avec vous ! https://www.hacking-social.com/2026/03/05/le-schema-des-politoxiques/
