Those are the neighbors and community we need again.

Solus. It has more packages I want in their repos than any other distro. It uses Open Collective for transparent donations. It has a good selection of DE's. It is great for any task including gaming. It is stable yet new. If it gave a choice of init systems and the libre kernel it would be perfect.

#XSF Announcement

Today the #XMPP Standards Foundation publishes an Open Letter to urge #Meta to adopt XMPP for messaging #interoperability.

It’s time for real interoperability. Let’s make it happen.

Heads up, icu-76 has been pushed to edge. The builders will be busy for a while rebuilding all dependencies, and there appear to be some build failures.

The community repository is broken at the moment until the builders finish rebuilding affected packages and upload it.

Build status can be tracked at build.alpinelinux.org/

#AlpineLinux

Help is appreciated fixing broken packages.

For example dovecot seems to be broken on 32-bits arches ("size of unnamed array is negative").

Tectonic fails to build as well.

Phantom Overload Alpha 0.4 brings quite a few visual and balancing changes (many are both), most notably:

- Visual changes to phantoms
- Rebalanced phantoms by adjusting speed, spawning and despawning
- Reworked the visual phantom proximity effects
- Changes to rendering distance and fog
- Work with shadows
- Post-death camera now looks at the phantom that killed you

Phantom Overload is an atmospheric #FPS #game being made with #Godot 4. It's available on #Codeberg: codeberg.org/Huitsi/PhantomOve
