                                    For a reason I don't understand yet, if I install Discord (right from the Arch repo), Plasma's app launcher will just ignore the mere existence of the discord.desktop file inside both /usr/share/applications and ~/.local/share/applications and the app will never show up inside any of the applications categories.
                                    (But Discord will definitely show up if you search it, just doing right click on it to try to tweak the launcher will just open the menu editor in a blank state as the app will not see the corresponding .desktop file)

                                    The workaround was to copy the .desktop file from /usr to the home, and rename the desktop file from discord.desktop to discord_return.desktop (or anything else) and, hop, problem solved.
                                    Renaming it back from discord_return.desktop to discord.desktop will make it disappear again. 🤡

                                    Why? I have no clue, but I would sure like to understand the underlying kekaku

                                                    Europe really does have the best conferences, especially for open source software. I wish I could get out of this US bubble and immerse myself in that ecosystem more to enjoy making a living out software again.

                                                                            This idea has been in my mind since the very beginning of this adventure, almost two years ago. Over time, several people have suggested it. But until recently, I felt the timing just wasn’t right - for many reasons. Today, I believe it finally is.

                                                                            So I’m happy to announce a new service:
                                                                            The BSD Cafe Journal - journal.bsd.cafe

                                                                            At first, I thought I’d use BSSG for it (I even added multi-author support with this in mind), but in the end, it didn’t feel like the right tool for the job.

                                                                            The idea is to create a multi-author space, with content published on a fairly regular basis. A reference point for news, updates, tutorials, technical articles - a place to inform and connect.
                                                                            Just like people in Italy used to stop by cafes to read the newspaper and chat about the day’s news, the BSD Cafe Journal aims to be a space for reading, sharing, and staying informed - all in the spirit of the BSD Cafe.

                                                                            What it’s not:
                                                                            It’s not here to replace personal blogs, or excellent newsletters like @vermaden ’s. And it’s not an aggregator.

                                                                            What it is:
                                                                            A place where authors can write original content, share links to posts on their own blogs or elsewhere, publish guides, offer insights, or dive into technical explanations.

                                                                            The guiding principles are the same as always: positivity, constructive discussion, promoting BSDs and open source in general. No hype (sharing a cool new service is fine, posting non-stop about the latest trend is not), no drama, no politics. The goal is to bring people together, not divide them. To inform, not inflame.
                                                                            Respect, tolerance, and inclusivity are key. Everyone should feel welcome reading the BSD Cafe Journal - never judged, offended, or excluded.

                                                                            The platform I’ve chosen is WordPress, for several reasons: it’s portable (runs well on all BSDs), has great built-in role management (contributors, authors, etc.), and - last but not least - supports ActivityPub.
                                                                            This means every author will have their own identity in the Fediverse (like: @stefano ) and can be followed directly, and it’ll also be possible to follow the whole Journal.

                                                                            Original and educational content is encouraged, but it’s also perfectly fine to link to existing articles elsewhere. Personally, I’ll link my technical posts from ITNotes whenever I publish them there.

                                                                            The goal is simple: a news-oriented site, rich in content, ad-free, respectful of privacy - all under the BSD Cafe umbrella.

                                                                            Content coordination will happen in a dedicated Matrix room for authors. There’ll also be a public room for discussing ideas, giving feedback, and sharing suggestions.

                                                                            Of course, I can’t do this alone. A journal with no content is just an empty shell.

But it's not an emacs problem. For some silly reason, a lot of FOSS devs refuse to put an image of their app on their repo. It is especially egregious when it's a GUI app or a color scheme. #linux #foss
