  • Very likely that the people involved in the deal were corrupt. It wouldn’t surprise anybody if they got a nice sum deposited into an offshore account, a free house, expensive art, or whatever else is used to hide corruption.

    Unfortunately the opensource community is heavily disorganised. We don’t have a group to represent us, market opensource, push for its use in public office, fight for compensation for maintainers and developers, and so much more. A concerted effort could possibly accelerate adoption and make it possible for more people to earn a living from opensource, not just the lucky few who can do it in their free time and transition to a paid/funded position.

  • After reading this, I’m kinda curious how it compares to JetBrains. It’s becoming more and more VSCode like and I’m not a fan.

    Does Kate support or have plugins for renaming symbols, presenting documentation, formatting files, showing code diagnostics beyond syntax errors (for example code smells or so), have AI integration (explain this, rewrite this, replace this with prompt output, …), specific framework integrations (reactjs, django, actix, …), and stuff like expanding macros in C/C++ and Rust?

    We dream of a world where technology (both SW and HW) is completely open, but at the moment, this is not entirely possible. Our goal is to contribute to progress in this line by publishing all our developments to support the community.

    However, some components (such as the communications module or the CPU) do not have publicly available schematics and cannot be replicated. This prevents our device from being fully open source. Nevertheless, we are committed to publishing all our own development work and continuously seeking for components that respect user freedom without compromising usability.

    Regarding the software, the entire operating system will be open source, and all LiberuxOS developments will be published. The installed software will also be open source. However, some parts of the firmware will remain closed, as some manufacturers do not release their code. Still, we will do our best to open more parts of our system over time.
