Will they be now on FDroid? I think only one Proton app is there and it's a little bit sad.

Proton VPN and proton pass

IRRC they even removed all telemetry from pass but not VPN.

They should definitely push drive and calendar there too.

[-] [email protected] 4 points 2 hours ago

Why the fuck does their VPN have telemetry?

[-] [email protected] 2 points 1 hour ago

It's a VPN! What did you expected? /hj

I want to make the jump from Google apps but I can't because I use GCal heavily and Proton Calendar doesn't (yet) sync to GCal. I can enter in something in GCal and it'll appear in Proton Calendar, but I can't enter in something in Proton Calendar and it shows up in GCal. Hopefully they add that soon.

[-] [email protected] 2 points 1 hour ago

You people are never satisfied!

Unfortunately GitHub is still where 99% of devs are

can you educate me a bit about what's wrong with that?

[-] [email protected] 1 points 2 hours ago

The workflow is also kind of obtuse.

FD: I prefer GitLab between the two.

bcs github is owned by microsoft

[-] [email protected] 6 points 15 hours ago

wow didn't even know that. they certainly are hiding it well.

It took me going to their GitHub to find out, but it’s GPL 3.

[-] [email protected] 5 points 11 hours ago

Why the but? GPL 3 is the correct license to use for open source projects to ensure they stay open and corps don't freeload on them.

[-] [email protected] 4 points 9 hours ago

English isn’t my first language. I share your opinion regarding the license. Which connector would you use instead of “but” to indicate that you succeeded in your efforts even though it was harder you thought it would be?

[-] [email protected] 7 points 9 hours ago

English is my only language, and yours looks fine to me. I thought it was pretty clear from the first comment that the "but" indicated success despite difficulties, and as you clarified that's exactly what you meant.

[-] [email protected] 1 points 1 hour ago

Why not having a L2 maybe a L3? People from the US should feel like they're missing out in our modern world!

[-] [email protected] 1 points 6 hours ago

Looks like you’ve got the upvotes backing you. I’ll keep on using as is. Thank you!

"and"

If you study non violent communication, folks will say to avoid using "I agree with you, but". Because as soon as you say " but ", people get defensive and stop listening to you.

Whenever possible, replace "but" with "and" if the sentence still has the same meaning

[-] [email protected] 5 points 8 hours ago

This was not a case of "I agree with you, but...", though. "But" is perfectly appropriate here to contrast between the first statement and the second.

[-] [email protected] 4 points 8 hours ago

@delirious_owl @acockworkorange

"I agree with you BUT you are being an a--hole."

"I agree with you AND you are being an a--hole."

Hmm. 🤔

Yeah. It also makes it sound way more impactful and true. Thank you! 😁

AGPL would have been a bit better, especially for the server side

[-] [email protected] 2 points 3 hours ago

This does not apply to the server. Only the client app is open source. The server is proprietary.
