archlinux gets $600K in funding (from the usual German foundation, of course), #Firefox drops Do Not Track and #Flathub is being separated from the #GNOME foundation into its own entity: time for the #linux and #OpenSource News video!

Really looking forward to the universial Flatpak appstore, this could be good!
@thelinuxEXP@mastodon.social always love the news!
although sometimes you get a bit circular in your ramblings
anyways keep up the good work 👍
@Alejandro_P@mathstodon.xyz Oh yeah, I ramble quite a lot
@thelinuxEXP@mastodon.social @Alejandro_P@mathstodon.xyz I don't even notice, I love your rambles
@gregortactac@toot.si @Alejandro_P@mathstodon.xyz Fun fact: I ramble just as much in real life, must be a French thing!
@thelinuxEXP@mastodon.social Salut Nick bonne vidéo comme d'habitude.
@thelinuxEXP@mastodon.social I'm late but going for the podcast
And here is the audio podcast:

@thelinuxEXP@mastodon.social It says Arch gets 500K€ here but 600K€ in your other, Youtube video link post. Just an FYI. Also, this set of news sounds particularly interesting. Definitely need to tune it 🙂
@Arcticulate@toot.community No, the YT video says 600K dollars, not euros :)
@thelinuxEXP Oh wait! You’re right, sorry 😆
@thelinuxEXP@mastodon.social I'm thankful you share links to your videos here. YouTube doesn't recommend them to me, even though I often watch them and I'm subscribed...
@danielcasanueva@mastodon.social yeah, YT recommendations have dropped off a cliff in 2024
@thelinuxEXP@mastodon.social thank you for the news, Santa 🤭
@thelinuxEXP@mastodon.social I thought your rant about GNOME favoritism in icon guidelines was weird. Your complaint about icons was especially strange given that skeuomorphism is GNOME's entire look; KDE actually tends to have a more symbolic style. But they both agree on clarity and minimalism without looking bland or flat.
The guidelines also use good/bad examples from both ecosystems.
I do agree with the broad point that they should be separate but there's no evidence of discrimination IMO.
