Google Docs has a handy “Copy as Markdown” feature where you can paste rich text and then copy it out as (at least mostly reasonably-formatted) markdown. This is handy for quick and dirty conversion of a web page’s content, e.g. to quote in a blog post. Is there some native app on Flathub I can use to do something similar? The perfect scenario would be just pasting rich text into a text field and it immediately converts it and spits out the Markdown into the text box. #Linux #Flatpak #Flathub

I was admittedly bearish about Bazaar early on; I was confused by the design that was trying to reinvent a lot of things, plus I didn’t know how I felt about diverging efforts from GNOME Software. Now that the Bazaar team has decide to clone the Flathub web UI whenever it makes sense (and improve on it in cool ways!), I’ll admit it: it’s pretty rad. Huge props to the designers and developers making Bazaar. It’s the Flathub app store @Tobias Bernard always wanted. #Flathub #Flatpak #Linux #GNOME

I largely prefer the architecture and experience of the fediverse/Mastodon over ATproto/Bluesky, but there are a number of accounts I care about that are only on Bluesky and not bridged to the fediverse. And even with bridging, it's not the best experience. How are other people handling this? The result for now is that I have two separate accounts… but I really don’t want to manage two different accounts. 😭

I gave a short talk at the #UbuntuSummit about funding @GNOME! Watch it to learn about how GNOME is actually funded, and what we’re doing to help ensure it stays sustainable. 👀 https://www.youtube.com/live/bEEamxJ60aI?t=7h47m29s #Ubuntu #Linux #GNOME

What would Wikipedia be “rated”? If you had age-based parental controls installed on a computer, would you expect your kid to be able to use a Wikipedia app? I would expect so (It’s an encyclopedia! Knowledge is power!), but if you rate it literally according to something like OARS, it gets marked as unsuitable for children—because nudity and sexual organs and whatnot.
