Have a look on Organic Maps (https://organicmaps.app) or OSMAnd for example (https://osmand.net/).

Wow, you mean that Flock 😅

Whatever the solution behind is, if you have the resources, move to something self-hosted. Open core or not, if that topic matters to you, you might need something you can own and control. BTW, have a look on Forgejo, Codeberg and Gitea: these are the solutions I see when people look for something FLOSS, not open core, and maybe self-hostable.

It depends of the project in fact. You should reach the community and maintainers by joining them in their Discord / Slack / Matrix / whatever. They may be able to help you.

You can create first an issue, asking for improvements and create a discussion airy the maintainers so as to know which languages are not managed yet and if they are interested in new support. Explains also why you can bring good translations (e.g. native speaker, teacher, etc). It sill help to bring confidence.

Then create a pull / merge request with the updated files. For example, strings.xml ob Android, .strings in iOS, etc. But beware, localisation is not only a matter of translations. You may have also to support new languages and formats for figures, currencies, or dates for example.

Do not use translations services. Project maintainers are able to use them, and in plenty of cases the translations are not good at all or loose details.

I would have said in fact Matrix or XMPP-based solutions but it seems you already have spotted them. Maybe Mattermost?

The project here is not under an open source license as defined by the 10 criteria of the Open Source Initiative. There is the only acceptable definition of what is open source today, and you can refer to it by clicking on this hyperlink: https://opensource.org/osd

The publication will be deleted as out of topic.

It seems yet Bluesky has an Android app according to their GitHub repository (https://github.com/bluesky-social/social-app). However indeed nothing mentioned about F-Droid ; maybe some alternative Mastodon clients can also deal with Bluesky?

Please explain and answer the concerns as voiced by the community ; without more detail man can think your are a troll, a bot, or someone generated this answer using GentAI tools.

Your answer is not accurate as it does not bring useful details to the community which have legitimate concerns.

In addition the mentioned GitHub repository in a first sight does not contain mandatory files like CONTRIBUTING or SECURITY which does not help user be confident and have less concerns. Moreover, as the reproducibility of builds is not easy to prove event for FLOSS projects, you cannot rely on that point about open source approach. It does not seem that you are using either Dependabot, Renovate or Snyk to ensure the security of the software.

You should really bring details and make the community less worried and more confident instead of bringing that type of answers.

Next ones of that type might be removed ; the community is not dedicated to open source washing.

GitLab because for CI/CD is it far, far much user friendly and comfortable to use with GitLab CI compared to GitHub Actions and flows.

In addition I can integrate templates for CI/CD pipelines already defined with the To Be Continuous project (which is open source).

I agree but the solution used for the blog hosting does not expose anything to have a nice rendering of the commands. In addition, using the time to write the command helps to understand and remember. But I agree it could be upsetting.

Quite strange, I have my last publications posted here downvoted without any comment, and I don’t know why. This is kind of unfair because FMPOV it is just hyperlinks maybe interesting or useful, at least for me and other people I know. But it’s the life, it’s social networks, it’s people and I don’t care that much ✌️ Please, leave comments instead ✌️

Very interesting topic in fact, I am not sure a unique and perfect solution exists.

In fact, it depends to how much you earn, how matter does for you the project, how big it is, etc. It is a question of feelings after all.

For example you may want to donate $20 one time to a useful tool you use, but for an app you enjoy using which match your own values you may want to send each year $50. But for some people it is complicated to give money, they need to satisfy their own needs before and people don’t have all the same incomes.

FMPOV, if the project is “just a tool” it can be a $20 one shot. If I use the software daily, it can be $50 per year. Maybe more if I feel it will help.

About the transaction medium, it depends. Projects can use Liberapay, others PayPal or Open Collective, or also in-app purchases. I don’t use cryptocurrencies because of the transactions fees.

Hope it helps!

FYI, spotted the issue and updated it ;) https://github.com/mlemgroup/mlem/issues/1311

Ok, you are ight, fixed the publication and will dig deeper with my Lemmy app to check if an improvement can be done :) Thanks!

Sorry, not used to my Lemmy client, still not found how to do that. Quite a newbie, I will take more care next times. Thank you for your comment.

Thank you for your comment 😅

That is the reason why some developers are “full stack”. All computers are stacked 🤪

Yes you should definitely check before whether or not the device is supported. You can find it for LineageOS here: https://wiki.lineageos.org/devices/

You may also have a look on /e/OS: https://doc.e.foundation/devices

Yeah, reach the FSF like explained in previous comments. Or maybe contact some attorney if it matters because you may face expensive litigations… Big companies are not friendly. Or maybe contact the SFC (https://sfconservancy.org/).
