#linuxdesktop
And eventually RH PR where able to get the hands on also over #LateNightLinux which has been historically and geographically an #Ubuntu bastion... I am concerned about this trend, #LNL is one of my favorite podcast it would be a shame stopping to listen it because the continuous RH PR, this is the reason why I stopped to listen #destinationLinux
I understood it is also a manifestation that Ubuntu is everyday lesser relevant on the #LinuxDesktop, now there is the rising up of the worst: #Manjaro ; #Fedora #SilverBlue ; #Flatpak etc...
Not that I really care about all this crap I already left the Linux space but this RH/Linux mono-culture is boring, #GNU/Linux was cool also because diversity, heterogeneity, variety and so on...
Slackermedia
Take control of your art. Design your own digital studio.
Slackermedia is not a "laundry list" of multimedia apps that are half-finished, nor a blueprint for mindlessly installing apps you'll never use, nor a series of mindless install scripts. It is a series of tutorials on understanding the UNIX way as it applies to the artistic process, designing a personalised workflow, and configuring a system so that it works for you and not against you.

This is quite unexpected, this is the first I heard about this distro for art/multimedia production. Looks quite geek/nerdy/extreme, everything in salsa #slackware!
Definitely I'll take a look into this project!

Description: sticky note application for X
This program consists of independent pad windows, each is basically a text box
in which notes can be written. Xpad attempts to emulate the look of postit
notes, although the look of the notes can be customized any way you like.
As you can see it requires only a standard GTK environment.
Any P2P Instant Message Still Available?
It happens that for not clarified reason my phone is broken, for now it works randomly and I haven't bought a replacement yet, waiting for some 4th July offers; anyway since I had to reset everything, hence,It doesn't have anything installed yet, and besides text message I really think I need an alternative solution to Whatsapp that I can use in emergency situation like this one, and perhaps as stable replacement for the aforementioned platform.
So my question is: are still out there any active, secure, privacy focus, free and opensource P2P instant messaging software for both Desktop and Mobile?
Thanks!
