Asklemmy@lemmy.ml•Do you know any independent written news sources?English
3·1 year agoI specified written. Independent news commentators are everywhere since video format is still a profitable model, but they all rely on written news sources or random social media posts.
Unless you use Monero, it’s not private nor safe.

Free and Open Source Software@beehaw.org•Postiz (v1.6.6) - open-source social media scheduling toolEnglish
5·1 year agoSince you deleted your post on !opensource@programming.dev, reposting my comment.
Another AI project that will probably be dead in a few months. Also open core not open source as many of the features are not available via self-hosted version.
Self-hosted version which source is available and hosted-version which is not public, are not the same. Or at the very least, planned to not be the same by your own admission as you talked publically about planning on adding paid-only features to hosted version.
Take out “AI features” and you are left with nothing, so yeah, AI project… It also relies on proprietary AI models that you don’t own, so it can stop working at any point and that would be out of your control.

Open Source@lemmy.ml•WinampDesktop/winamp - Licence violates github TOS · Issue #6English
2·1 year agoI’m not sure if it’s spelled out in the ToS, but there is no way to prevent pull requests on public repos, it’s a functional requirement.

Open Source@lemmy.ml•WinampDesktop/winamp - Licence violates github TOS · Issue #6English
121·1 year agoYou have to make a fork aka copy and modify to contribute via pull requests. The license is fundamentally broken.
No audit, no 2FA, no transparency report, limited servers, proprietary clients. There are better options.

Gaming communities are hard to grow since they require people who play the game to participate. You can only grow it on your own so much by posting the latest news.

Open Source@lemmy.ml•Seelen-UI: The Fully Customizable Desktop Environment for Windows 10/11 with a windows tiling manager included.English
4·1 year agoYou are correct, I somehow got confused… It was v1.2.0 release, I updated my original post. The release didn’t even mention the license change. https://github.com/eythaann/Seelen-UI/releases/tag/v1.2.0

Free and Open Source Software@beehaw.org•Anyone been having problems with your Lemmy client? Eternity is kinda broken since an updateEnglish
1·1 year agoIt’s not mentioned, but I think the compatibility layer for 1.19 releases breaks support for older versions. Ask your instance admins to update the backend.

Open Source@lemmy.ml•Seelen-UI: The Fully Customizable Desktop Environment for Windows 10/11 with a windows tiling manager included.English
7·1 year agoIt’s another fake open source license. While source code is public under the license, you can’t modify or republish so if the project decides to sell you are fucked.

28·1 year agov1.2.0 release changed the license from MIT to PolyForm Strict License 1.0.0 which removes ability to re-publish and make changes to the project. In the day when fake open source projects sell out daily, it’s a good sign to avoid this project.
