My migration from 1Password to Bitwarden was both of those things.
Vendor lock in doesn’t mean it’s impossible to move. It means there’s a huge burden to move.
Why Forgejo Actions and not Woodpecker CI, isn’t Woodpecker on Codeberg more stable? Yes, absolutely, in fact the documentation for Forgejo Actions on Codeberg is out of date right now
Waah?
Forgejo Actions will just feel way more familiar coming from GitHub Actions. The UI and YAML syntax is almost identical, and the existing actions ecosystem mostly works as-is on Codeberg.
Ah, ok. I don’t care about that.
Setting up woodpecker.
Yeah, not handled well. They’re doing slimy corpo bullshit.
On the other hand, I like that they’re open source and don’t block stuff like vaultwarden.
I hope they can take the extra money and make the product better. Cuz I definitely don’t love Bitwarden, but it’s a better alternative than 1Password.
Yes, it should be Nucleus. Them calling it PiedPiper is a propaganda campaign to try to earn good will from people. Fuck Google locking down Android.
One of the huge benefits of using a third party manager is that your data is more portable! If you wanna use Firefox today, cool. But what if you want to use Safari tomorrow? Or Chrome later? Don’t self vendor lock yourself. I see those built-in OS/browser password managers as traps to prevent you from leaving.
I really do not understand the hate :/
The itsfoss interviewer goes into this:
A lot of backlash isn’t about the code change, but about what it represents.
You say this is “just attestation, not verification” but we know that infrastructure always gets repurposed later. This is where the legit fear lies.
Do you think regulations like these will reshape desktop Linux in the next 5-10 years where we might have “compliant Linux” and “Freedom-first Linux”?
Sam Bent’s article also goes into this (although, fuck that clickbait title): https://www.sambent.com/the-engineer-who-tried-to-put-age-verification-into-linux-5/
He read the laws, decided compliance was the correct response, and went to work. Every objection the community raised went nowhere: that this enables surveillance infrastructure, that lying is trivially easy, that the laws themselves are unconstitutional overreach. He’d already accepted the law as legitimate and moved to implementation.
He read the law, took it at face value, and started writing code. The word for what that is sits somewhere past malice, something more insidious: an engineer who treats compliance as engineering, who sees a legal requirement the way he sees a technical specification, and will implement whatever the spec says regardless of who wrote the spec or why.
The reason to name him is the pattern. The surveillance state runs on volunteers: people who do the implementation work for free, out of genuine conviction, with no paper trail connecting them to the money that wrote the laws.
So… should I start stashing my cash under my mattress?
Not surprising, this guy is also onboard with Google locking down Android: https://dylanmtaylor.com/posts/2026-03-19-googles-new-android-sideloading-flow-is-a-fair-trade
Why not let someone else do it then? Why eagerly sign up to be the one to do it?
We’re a huge country I guess. I’ve experienced pretty much the exact opposite as you.
- almost everyone I know takes home some portion of their meal from a restaurant. So that single portion is really two, or maybe three.
Most people around me have the waiter take their half-eaten plate away. Apparently, food waste is considered polite or something around me. If you actually try to finish your plate, you get made fun of. (I’ve been made fun of.) I guess it makes you look poor or desperate or starving or something?
- IME people don’t usually have giant portions at home, they sometimes do of course, but things tend to be more sane for home cooked meals for your family. They also tend to be a lot more balanced, with more veg and grain.
The dinner plates my family and my wife’s family (and extended family) have for dinner are quite large and they usually get filled up. Usually meat is the biggest portion of that plate, followed by carbs, and then veggies are the smallest (if present at all). My wife’s family in particular always, always, always, has ice cream or cake or cookies after dinner.
My wife and I use smaller dinner plates, and again, surprise, get made fun of because we’re eating such “tiny” (normal) portions.

Hahaha. Doing clean room as a service, so funny. lol. Providing a working service, LOL! Accepting money from people using your fully functional service. HAHAHAHAHA. Hilarious!
This guy isn’t using Malus, but he’s pulling the same joke, LOL: https://github.com/chardet/chardet/issues/327
… You know… yeah, that’s true. One of the huge benefits of using some open source library is that you don’t have to maintain it. But if you clean room it, then it’s all on you.
Although, companies like Amazon will have the engineers to maintain it internally. But a lot of other companies won’t.
And then you have the chardet guy: https://github.com/chardet/chardet/issues/327
Does anyone have any ideas on how to fight back? Should we start withholding test suites now? Withhold docs?
Half of the US used to be Mexico, so US Spanish is mostly Mexican Spanish. We don’t use vosotros. My high school Spanish teacher (yes, I took it because it was easy) would always skip conjugations of vosotros entirely.
I don’t think I’ve ever heard anyone use vosotros here. We understand it, but it’s very uncommon. Univisión, Telemundo, Estrella, TeleXitos all mostly use Mexican Spanish. Same goes for the radio.
It’s a little more nuanced than that.
I will gladly write my own small, half-assed framework that I 100% know, can reason about, can debug, and can extend to fit my requirements. I will gladly pass on a fat-assed, bloated framework with a million dependencies, where I only need a few features, and where if I need something that isn’t offered by the framework I have to submit a PR or add some janky-ass workaround.
Apparently you maybe be able to migrate whole communities (and subscribers!?) to Piefed?!

Piefed is part of the fediverse, same as Lemmy. Piefed can talk with Lemmy; Lemmy can talk with Piefed.
Can the spaces/subreddits whatver they are called
They’re called communities or comms.

Ugh. Yeah.
