linuxusers.in is a Fediverse instance that uses the ActivityPub protocol. In other words, users at this host can communicate with people that use software like Mastodon, Pleroma, Friendica, etc. all around the world.
This server runs the snac software and there is no automatic sign-up process.

How to configure #Matrix #Synapse on #FreeBSD with #OIDC via Microsoft Azure AD / Entra.

Eh...
It's a rolling release, so it's got that going for it, but a lot/most of their custom utilities (such as the package manager) is still on Python 2, which is... not good.
/usr/bin/python
is even a symlink to python2
which is really not good.
Small team. Looks like the original dev, who started a new distro, is going to re-work a lot of those things, which will be the basis for Solus going forward, so there's a lot of hope for newer and better utilities.
To be clear, my only real complaint so far is the python2-ness of it.
Also, they don't have a ksh
package (which some of my scripts require), but I managed to compile the standard ksh2020.
I don't know if I will stay. #Python2 is kind of a deal-breaker.
Still slowly replicating my #KDE #Plasma setup from my work #Debian box. I have a lot of custom keybinds that make it a little more like i3/sway for me.
My other options are Debian testing, #FreeBSD (probably will lose the ability to run KSP), or #OpenSuSE tumbleweed (if they can ever just enable polkit by default, already).

Early video today, just because I didn't feel like waiting for the usual publishing time :)
In this #Linux and #OpenSource News video, we have the Freedesktop.org project (and all it hosts, so Mesa, X.org, Wayland, and more) looking for new, expensive hosting.
We also have #Debian leaving X/Twitter (congrats on that, btw), Facebook blocking links and mentions of Linux for a while, and more!
