I know what you mean, but I think private chat and public posting are quite distinct. They’d destroy a lot more trust if they sell private messages compared to what they did with Tumblr. Especially if they continue to push local bridges, where they won’t be able to read any message (you still have to trust them obviously).
Well that’s some news. If they’re good news we will see. I’m a Beeper user but never heard of Texts (stupid name) before, which seem to share the same misson as Beeper. Texts was purchased by Automattic last year (according to the Beeper blog).
What does that mean? Automattic punches with some weight in the chat space now. In general I don’t like it if big companies buy small products. However Automattic still seems to bet on the Fediverse, so maybe if the teams from Beeper and Texts can work together on a Matrix-based, open source chat application, we could get something really good.
I’ve mixed feelings about this whole thing, some shy optimizm, some less shy pessimism.
Well, time will tell.

Appreciate it <3
(dead thread I know, but whatever)
It’s very similar, more like an evolution from Neo than a revolution. They switched a few keys and if you’re starting fresh I think I’d recommend Bone, but if you already know Neo I’m not sure switching is worth it. It could be fun though (if you consider learning a new layout fun ^^).
You’re right! Even for programmers.
They can’t possibly judge what is trivial to achieve and what’s a serious, very hard problem.
Too often, you won’t be given time to make your software understandable. Probably almost never. So you have to incorporate a way of programming that leaves your code more understandable after you fixed your bug or added your feature.
I don’t know if understandability is the most important thing. However I certainly agree with the author that it’s curcial, if you ever want to do more than merley a script or a proof of concept.
“We’re going to clean up that code later.”
Oh, yeah you should. I mean I’d advice against it, but since you already know the pain of switching layouts… sure, go ahead! :D
I prefer Bone over Neo, Neo has quite broad software support though. I’m using Bone on Linux and macOS without any issues.
I use a variant of the Neo-Layout called Bone. It’s an ergonomic layout optimized for German and English text. The base layer is already different (see the linked page), but I also really like it for programming, since there’s an entire layer with easily accessible symbols:
I can’t speak for the BOOX Tab Ultra C directly, but I’m interested in opinions on it, because I’m thinking about buying one as well.
I have the BOOX Note Air though. Overall, I really like it. I use it to read books and learning material, do math exercises and occasionally to draw. I love that it’s smart (full Android, download any app) and dumb (slow, grayscale, don’t get distracted easily) at the same time.
Technically you can use it for browsing the web, however I wouldn’t recommend it. It’ too slow if you want to hop between different sites. It’s only comfortable if you access a specific site to read on for a while. I hope the BOOX Tab Ultra C is faster (I mean it should), but if the web is one of your main use cases, I’d rather go for a proper tablet. Even if the ePaper screen is relatively fast, it’s still too slow to be fun. Since you’re already experienced using ePaper screen, I’m confident you can judge that for yourself though.
My motivation to get an upgrade is mainly the Note Air quickly slows down when drawing anything semi-complex or above. I can recommend it for reading, taking notes and (limited) drawing. For anything else, I recommend a tablet instead.
And for 80$/month you can get 25Gbps!

Works now.
Deleting storage and cache (both) worked for me.
A network of (“thousands of”) servers has — like most things — pros and cons.

This does not sound sustainable at all.
