  • I'm not sure why people keep pushing that myth on C++. It's been a decade we have smart pointers. There's no memory management to be done ever.

    Using the old 'new' is like typing 'unsafe' in rust. Even arrays/vectors have safe accessor.

    Am I missing something?

  • They won't go to jail, period. No company owners never go to jail, kinda ever. This phrase is out of proportion. At worse they would have a fine.

    Also still in the blog everything is words and very opaque like " We do this not only through technology and advocacy (Proton has contributed over $500,000 toward defending these values around the world)" : like where, what, when?

    "There was no legal possibility to resist or fight this particular request." : I doubt very much unless Switzerland is a dictatorship in disguise.

    "Switzerland generally will not assist prosecutions from countries without fair justice systems." : clearly not.

  • It is a nice PR but for me I am not impressed. Rolex is also a non profit organization in Switzerland and and mostly help hiding there finance.

    Correct me if I am wrong but all I see is words and promises. I would trust them if they release the yearly finance transparently.

    For now the only act I can judge them on is their collaboration with police to give ecologist activists IP.

  • Thank you for sharing this. I didn't know this FS yet. It seems new and have some nice goals. I always have a grudge against zfs/btrfs because of the resource usage/performance.

    I'll keep an eye on this. I'd love to find some benchmarks.

  • I tried watching the video. I am genuinely interested but I couldn't. The video is uncuted (edit: uncut*, my English is so bad) and very slow paced. After 10 minutes I gave up (50 minutes remaining).

    Maybe an other time or with an other video.

  • Damned, this is so frustrating when you cannot switch yet. Not like Wayland is perfect anyway but I felt the same with pipewire where the new system as some needed improvement but the switch is harsh.

  • They list gitea but not forgejo. That's not really advocating for FOSS. "all" (the ones I looked at) are startup products coined as open-source.

    I really don't like this website and this list, to me this is replacing bad solutions by other bad solutions (I am sorry for the people that like firebase and co).

    I am sorry for the negativity but I really don't enjoy this link and all it represents and all the people enjoying such content. I guess I/we should explicitly separate FOSS from open-source.

    I may be out of touch and should be educated on why/how this is good.

  • Never heard of bonfire, I really need some kind of tech news to explain and review those kind of things. I spend few minutes reading some of this "micro-bloging" thing. I'd like to see/understand concrete application. Is this mastodon-like small messages use?
