One of the biggest life-savers on #emacs #exwm has been the command `xrandr -s 0`. This somehow refreshes things and causes my triple-monitors to wakeup in ways that -auto and -set do not. But I cannot find documentation on it ANYWHERE; I've checked the manpages, web search... nothing!

EDIT: just tried `xrandr --help` and saw that it is short for --size. I'm still not sure why it works such miracles, though...

How often do you prefer updating your Nextcloud?

I am considering changing Privacy Browser Android’s default for scrolling the app bar to false for new installs. As the average device screen size has increased over the years, I have found that I now turn off app bar scrolling on all my new devices. I would imagine this is similar for most users. If this change were enacted, users could still enable app bar scrolling if desired. It would simply adjust the default to match what I assume most users want.

#MastoAdmin who are running the project's nightly Docker container image, will need to make some adjustments to their deployment starting tomorrow.

The image used for the streaming server is now separate from the main image used for web & Sidekiq. It will be published as ghcr.io/mastodon/mastodon-streaming shortly. The primary image no longer contains Node.js, which is required for streaming.

The resulting images are also much smaller than the previous versions.
