Latvia is partly involved, yes, but it’s also part Russian and recently moved to Singapore. You may find the history section on Wikipedia interesting; it also lists the russian part-ownership as reason for many users leaving OnlyOffice (and I’ve seen quite a few posts on that at the time).

As for the open-source part, I stand corrected, thank you

From what I can tell, OnlyOffice has the best compatibility and the nicest UI (similar to MS office), same as with the regular applications. NextCloud Office is based on LibreOffice (officially Collabora, which is their name for the web product), so again same as the regular applications you’ll have some compatibility issues. That said, if you don’t need compatibility with existing documents or only documents made with LibreOffice, either is fine.

One concern many have is that OnlyOffice is closed source (edit: my bad, it’s been open-source for a long time) and russian based (edit: partially russian, see Wikipedia), while LibreOffice is open source.

A catchall solution doesn’t exist, which is why most services simply tell you to put them on a separate subdomain

There’s many languages that started by compiling to C (including C++), so it’s an option. As another commenter has already said, it also means that you inherit everything of rust, which can be useful (borrow checker) but also tricky (language decisions, generate correct code). C is a much simpler language (in terms of features), so it’s easier to compile to, but Rust should be as doable.

See the other comments below, a new version has been released several days ago that fixes this properly

Thanks, completely missed this option

If you need finer control than recursive chmod (see other replies), you can also use find to match precisely which files/folders you want and use the -exec parameter to run chmod on those

The safety number is not part of the encryption. It just says: this person is who they say they are. So as long as you can trust that the number actually came from that person, it’s fine. Afaik, the number is derived from the encryption keys, so it can’t be faked, but I would verify that if you’re unsure.

Edit: was curious, here’s the blog post that introduced them: https://signal.org/blog/safety-number-updates/ Essentially, it’s a hash of the public key, so safe to broadcast, similar the HTTPS certificates employed on the web. They even say so: “the share button on the safety number screen and selecting FB, Twitter, email, etc to send the safety number to your contact.”

The main reason for Ubuntu against Debian is the packages. For Ubuntu, they’re much newer, and with PPAs (launchpad.net), you can often get more and/or newer packages built by other users. For debian, good luck, you’re stuck with old packages (which is the intent of Debian stable, but not nice as a user, that’s for server)

This would likely only hurt the end user. Many use chromium-based browsers, so you’re just driving those away.

You can detect Firefox, so you can do a superficial block in JS, but lemmy is such a simple site that you’d find it hard to find areas where there’s actual differences between the browsers, those usually only come from complex pages like video calling

Immutable distros aren’t immutable in the home folder though, they would be unusable otherwise, so that doesn’t solve OPs problem of dotfiles/personal files (I know nixOS tries to get rid of dotfiles, but in my experience that almost never works, it’s only helpful for replacing config files in /etc)

Your example exactly shows that Fahrenheit is not “more precise”, you’re literally dropping the precision. In Celsius you just don’t drop the precision, you’d say “around 12”, which gives just as much info

Not quite correct. For html, that is to signal standard compliance, you can leave it away and the browser will still handle it. For the bash one, all (most) shell scripts use .sh, so you need to give a shebang to tell the loader which executable (sh, bash, zsh, csh, …) to use

Also on Linux xdg does take file extensions into account, just executables do not

You can start steam just fine without the packages. In fact, if you install without them, it’ll ask you to install them every time, but you can skip that and it’ll work, just 32bit games won’t launch

Edit: Looks like I’m partially wrong, as pointed out by a commenter below, steam currently only launches the 32-bit version of the client, despite support for a 5l64-bit client

Eine Minute später kommt der Zug, der vor zwei Stunden kommen hätte sollen, neues Problem

It’sintended to be used when the cookies are actually required for the app to work. For example, to preserve your login, you need a cookie, no way around. Unfortunately, as mentioned by others, it’s often abused

Does “Database > Merge from Database” not work for your case? I remember it helping when I had a similar situation

Secure boot means only signed code can run in the kernel/ring 0. Grub, as the loader, needs to be signed as well. Basically anything with system privileges needs to be signed. If I remember right you need to enroll the signing key on installation, and the rest is handled automatically, but you can’t use any custom kernel or kernel drivers.
