Opinion: Sync shouldn't be open source
  • open source projects still need approvals for merging into a protected branch.

    In other words, if you were to open source a project, others can view the code or submit edits to the code on a new branch. Just the mainteners of the repository (you and who ever else you choose to have that power) would need to check that new code and approve it.

    If they made a change you don't want to implement, you just deny the change and no new code is merged.

    That person could then (depending on licensing) make a fork of your project that does have their change implemented. This means they would make an entirely new project and they would have the ability to make changes.

    You would still have full control on the original project that you created. And no changes would be pushed to an app store.

    TLDR: if something is open source, it only ensures it's longevity and resilience. Open sourcing a project does not mean now that it is changed at the will of the internet without the express approval.

    The Talos Principle 2 - Gameplay Trailer | PS5 Games
  • The original Talos principle and it's DLC the road to gehenna are some of my favorite games ever.

    It was also one of the first games I played on Linux and one of the first I could run using Vulkan.

    I hope switching to unreal engine doesn't take any of it's charm away.

  • Federated profile/configuration possible?

    I am a reddit refugee just discovering lemmy and exploring for the first time. However one thing I noticed quickly was the stress instance are experiencing.

    With the great reddit exodus and the influx of new users onto lemmy instances that may not be prepared.

    Is there a way to deal with instances going offline (even if just temporarly) but still accessing a single profile, subscription list, configuration, possibly even inbox contents?

    Perhaps there is a third party tool that can be self hosted to keep multiple profiles on different instances in sync?
