+1 for RSS but it doesn’t really replace the comments. granted on reddit the quality of discussion has for sure declined and lemmy is still a little dead sometimes. but it still provides value (to me)

someone should build a distributed comment system that works with plain old RSS feeds

cool! didn’t know that fcitx was also available for android

meanwhile random residential internet speeds in tokyo beating out every consumer connection available in my area (and country I assume):

maybe my comment about gitlab didn’t come across right. i do find oxide’s model to be better and agree with their criticism of gitlab’s.

and as much as you are absolutely right about labour being treated much like any other commodity required for a company to extract value, that is precisely the issue being pointed at here, isn’t it?

we should differentiate and acknowledge that people are more complex than that. their experiment seems to create an atmosphere where work is being done despite compensation not being used as an incentive and instead to enable the worker to do the work.

i personally don’t think this should be a responsibility of a company at all, but rather society (or the state) should assure these conditions… but we are stuck with capitalism and this is a step towards something better :)

so I wonder what the benefit is keeping it in the proprietary format at all

yeah my guess was easier editing and ux when collaborating via github, diffs on json don’t look great

but yaml (for all it’s faults) would still be better haha or now that i think about it:

• https://github.com/hashicorp/hcl
• https://git.sr.ht/~emersion/scfg

both look similar to bru, would share the advantages over json and seem better spec’d/supported

if i wasn’t a terminal person, this looks ideal! no reinventing the wheel for lock-in’s (read business model) sake…

the only thing i don’t like here is their custom bru format. json, yaml or any other standardised markup fit their manifesto better as well imo
