Woop, woop, #FrOSCon hype train! On my way to set up the #matrix stand (or come late for that and have others already have it set up). Come around and check out our stand or the matrix dev room! If you have any of your projects using Matrix, that you want to share, just hit us up, we can arrange a time slot of you in the dev room, if you want! And check out the other talks, maybe you can find a project that gives you a fun idea for something you want to do!

Alright, I’ve finally done a new #GNOME Shell Mobile release! Time for a little thread about the updates.

#LinuxMobile

🎙️ talked to @gnome Shell on Mobile main developer @verdre, who told us some crazy stories:

* How GNOME Shell on Mobile got started as @PrototypeFund project
* Relation to Phosh
* Enabling USB host mode on OP6 while hanging out in a bar in Berlin
* Running SailfishOS Aliendalvik on other Linux Mobile distros
* Finding an important security vulnerability in Apple's AirPods
* Mini GUADEC in Berlin

The most common #Linux mirroring misconception that I hear from others is that all of the big corporations MUST be running their own internal mirrors for their infrastructure.

They really aren't. Or maybe they are, and it just isn't being configured correctly on all the actual systems. In either case, we see a TON of mirror traffic headed towards IP addresses inside networks like Microsoft, Facebook, AWS, etc.

Fortune 500 corporations are downloading their security updates from a fanless thin client I shipped off to some random network who even I barely know who was willing to plug it in for me.

Calling ISP/DC operators who want to support #Linux / #foss !

The #AlmaLinux project has done a mirror coverage analysis and have identified south Texas as a weak spot in their download mirror coverage in North America.

If anyone in the San Antonio/Austin/Houston area have spare bandwidth, please consider standing up a mirror, or if you don't have the ability, consider contacting me to send you a managed #MicroMirror appliance; we ship you a small server to plug in, and we fully manage and monitor the server remotely while it supports free software using your space/power/bandwidth.

#Germany introduces a new system for accessing medical data online.
The implementation by my insurer: Android, iOS, Windows, #Snap Store. Sadly, it's not open.

Sensitive data + closed software on user devices = #security nightmare.

(I'm mercifully ignoring the inevitable leak of the central database.)

When will governments and banks learn? There's no security without source code. There's no stability without interoperability.
