Anyone else here on Fosstodon use Nextcloud News as their RSS feed reader? Been running into a few weird issues of late where a feed will suddenly show 10+ new articles, when only the latest post is new. It’s starting to get aggravating enough that I’m wondering if it’s time for me to look at other solutions…

I normally operate all of my devices/apps in light mode, unless it’s after dusk (I use auto switching where possible). However, every once in a while, I use dark mode during the day too, for specific circumstances where for some reason the normal mode is hurting my head.
Today is one of those days. And I’m VERY thankful for the desktop environments and applications that make it easy to switch back and forth (esp. XFCE, Sublime Text/Merge, Firefox w/Dark Reader, Todoist, & Slack today 🙂 )

Me: attempts to install app on MacBook Pro
Sorry, that app only works on the latest version of the OS.
Apparently I have to update Mac OS now. 😕
Sometimes I wish everything worked like Linux. It feels “simpler” in many respects…

For some reason this THROUGHLY amused me. Probably because it’s so true… 😂

Spent part of the afternoon rebuilding my little Z-Wave network with a new Zooz USB Stick and my Home Assistant running on a Raspberry Pi 4. I’d been having issues with my old Z-Wave stick not being detected properly (ever since migrating to the RPi4), and after reading through the workaround/“fix” over the weekend, I decided to just upgrade to a better-supported adapter.
Now I can once again reliably control my lights (including Christmas lights) from my phone, as expected! 🎉

Listening to GregKH’s keynote from the recent Linux App Summit while I work this morning.
I’ve heard bits and pieces of this content before, but this is by far one of the most concise presentations of it in recent memory. The biggest takeaway? “Don’t break userspace - we want users to upgrade without worry”.
Definitely worth checking out, both for Linux fans, and even more importantly for software developers.
