Mastodon has taken the strategic decision not to accept venture capital investments for growth, but rather restructure to a European non-profit organization
A great move made with reason. Not that common these days!

Yeah, it's sarcastic but could be definitely true: https://newsthump.com/2025/04/21/pope-loses-will-to-live-after-meeting-jd-vance/

It would be more than coincidence if the next Pope was an ultra-conservative, GOP-friendly guy from the US and A. Of course this would never happen, but.... ehm... who knows?

Which (Lenovo) notebooks to buy when coming from Apple Silicon?
Reply in thread
Unfortunately that it is not that easy - the Intel-ones up to 2018 were no problem and Asahi supports up to M2 with some limitations: https://asahilinux.org/fedora/#device-support

Basically Pixelfed - both focus on images but Vernissage has, IMHO, a more artistic and photographer-based approach showing camera models, lens, exposure and also GPS-tags if you want to.

Asahi looks quite great but is limited up to the M2, hence still lacking Thunderbolt and Touch ID-support. This would be the best way and I like the idea behind the project. Needs some time though.

Vernissage is undersold here somehow - in terms of quality and steady, reasonable development without 100 side-projects and permanent babbling it has turned to my preferred choice of putting my pics online, also showing-off there of course! 😉

Now they could deal with their quality management in terms of software as a next, huge leap.

Got it and understand your thoughts, but putting Lenovo aside, is there any other recommendable vendor? Of course there can be any backdoor everywhere and yes, TPM is one factor that can be compromised these days, but which company to trust then? I know that there was some stuff on preinstalled devices from China (various smaller, cheaper vendors) even two or three years ago (compromised Windows, told to be an "accident", but considering this, you cannot trust any vendor at all. Apart from that, Lenovo is just an example because I like the look and the haptics of the devices since the stuff was still label with "IBM" some decades ago. Thanks for your thoughts anyway!

They usually are, but I also had doubts that a weirdo becomes POTUS again. Everything seems to be possible these days...

Just needing some spare time to test this - T14(s) is in the focus here. Thanks for the info! 😀

They're currently rolling out this feature, starting with the login, you can now create app passwords für IMAP, DAV and the sync-client. Don't know if it's just for new users or when existing users are transferred but I recently noticed that something has changed to the positive.

That's also my option for the next step and once my 1522+ is due to renewal on one day or the other. Which hardware do you use in your environment?

That could be an option - thanks for sharing your thoughts. I am currently with an M4 MacBook Air and am preparing for a possible switch sometimes in the future. Have been using an old HP EliteBook G4 as second device so I know the look and feel, but something in the Lenovo-style paired with something ARM-based would be perfect. Fedora works fine out of the box so the system itself wouldn't be the problem - rather the technical base underneath.

That's my impression as well - the hardware is there but due to different reasons, there won't be an experience like Apple had with the Silicon-SoCs paired with their own OS. That much potential unused ATM, sadly.

Currently aiming at a second-gen T14s to partly do the switch - there are many technical differences but it could be a good start waiting for Snapdragon to be fully embraced by the main distros.
