Let's start with the basics: is dev.to self hosted? š
@lemmy.world
@squirrel@discuss.tchncs.de 5$ is kinda nothing, but his 5$ plus my 5$ plus your 5$ and all the others that donates, it's something
They count as...gone! Gone to develop what's been open source until it becomes closed source. As I think it should be, because what you helped to develop with your donation is still there.
The only way this monopoly could be killed is EU government intervention.
It's already happeniny with the DMA (Digital Markets Act): the gatekeeper (WhatsApp, Apple with iMessage, Facebook with Messages, etc.) will have to enable interoperability with external application upon requests. So by March 2024 (not sure about the date) we should be able to chat with people that use WhatsApp, iMessage, Facebook Message and other big services (that are considered gatekeeper) through Signal/Telegram/other apps!
I'm not commenting on the OP message that could/could not make sense, but...come one, this is the selfhosted community! If everyone would post a news that he/she thinks it would be interesting we would be submerged by all but selfhosted talk.
@neon_arch@programming.dev I think that a couple of lines explaining what websurfx is would be useful to a lot of users, instead of point them to another post.
Unlike with free and open-source software, which are also often distributed free of charge, the source code for freeware is typically not made available.
It clearly says "typically", which includes the software that does open source the code.
With Wireguard there's really no reason.
Well, that's kinda of a personal choice. If somebody needs to have services accessible by someone else besides him, that service can't be behind a VPN (let's face the truth: we know that we can't ask all out relatives and friends to use a VPN).
thanks for using Leebra!
