LineageOS, maybe? Still Android, but (AFAIK) more open to change than standard Android.

So sad when it happens…

I don’t follow - do people still seriously use SMS? I for one try to use it as little as possible.

Bitwarden has an export functionality. Export to JSON, import in Keepass, done.

There’s KeePassXC if you want Linux support (keepass2 file is compat with XC variant).

and occasionally Google translate

deepl.com is a decent alternative, if you want to replace Google Translate

The best implementation of errors as values I’ve seen is Rust’s Result type

You’re talking Monads, baby!

Had to dig around a little, but I think I got some context :

I don’t recall Uncle Bob being sexist or racist, but maybe I missed something.

This is why we have journalists - worst case, take this information to some newspaper, who will likely LOVE to poke the bear.

weird dude who writes raw HTML

Eyy, that’s me! Good excercise to learn actual HTML, instead of directly trying to jump into <insert random JS framework> and getting confused on what’s what.

Anyway, I ended up switching to Hugo as a static site generator, because it was too damn hard to keep all my <header>, <nav> and <main> aligned for all my HTML files.

Now I can just write a markdown file as an article, or switch back to raw HTML if I so need (like rewriting Alan Turing’s paper " On computable numbers" in HTML because I can’t use TTS on the PDFs I found; I still haven’t finished writing it, because I am now reading E. F. Codd’s papers on the Relational Model, which is pretty wild how we already figured that shit out in the 1970s!)

It was my replacement of Skype, which was leaning hard into its enshittification around that time.

“Oh great, I’ll have to create another fucking account” - me, already having some 300 accounts in my key-vault…

We’re current using bump2version, which already is a fork, but doesn’t use toml and thus isn’t very strict in its config. Turns out there’s already a successor (forgot the name) that supports toml. Haven’t had time to switch yet, but it’s on the massive backlog of shit I want to fix.
