The guy who founded owncloud (Frank), sold it to american venture capitalists. When Frank didn’t like how the VCs were planning to enshittify Owncloud, he forked the project and moved it back to Germany from Boston. The American VCs saw this, realized they couldn’t exploit the software anymore, so they sold Owncloud to a group of German businessmen. Ironically for Frank there are now two german owned non-VC backed cloud software based on the same code. But yeah they’re taking different strategic paths for growth.

Between the two I recommend OnlyOffice because it has better export compatibility, a PDF editor, seamless interchange between their desktop, mobile, and web versions, and a nicer UI. You’d only need LibreOffice if you’re doing very advanced document formatting or very niche scientific or financial formulas. LibreOffice has been around for a lot longer than OnlyOffice so its got more edge use cases figured out. Onlyoffice is more modern and IMO feels like a smoother experience with the UI.

NodeBB and other forum software have added activityPub integration on their dev roadmaps, so you might see it become a thing again. Personally I don’t want to create a new forum account for every thing I’m interested in.

I agree. But candidly I feel like there are bots that contribute to the voting.

There were several goals stated. It’s clear to anyone with a modicum of intelligence that denazification was meant for domestic politics. The Minsk accords were never implemented and Merkel bragged about it being a small tactic to arm the Ukrainians. I suppose we’ll see who ends up writing the history books to see which of us is right.

I don’t think there’s any good reason for two countries to go to war. It’s weird you would say wanting land is a justification. Russia’s stated reason was and is for a security buffer against NATO. It’s not justified but I don’t understand why you’re pretending it’s not the reason.

You can be dismissive of the reality of people outside of your bubble, however this is the pragmatic reality in the world. I do enjoy people taking the time to write comments that show their worldview is being shattered.

Oh I’m fairly certain that’s what happened.

I don’t need to refute your entire argument, this isn’t a Swedish university where peer criticism is required.

The ICJ says it’s a lot of things but it’s only been used as a colonial court against countries that aren’t aligned with western interests. I don’t defend the war criminals that have been prosecuted by the ICJ but how does the ICJ recognize the definition of a national court? For example, if an African country has an indigenous form and interpretation of justice to ensure societal cohesion, who are the western Europeans to say that their form of justice is incorrect and they need to be tried at the “international court”.

The court was only created to try Nazis because they didn’t think that country would treat their heros (at the time) fairly. It’s now used to try leaders the west doesn’t like. There’s lots of people in Iraq, Britain that want to see Tony Blair at the ICJ but the ICJ and the UK would use a rule such as the one you’ve mentioned to say it doesn’t apply, but won’t hesitate to take an Iraqi to the court.

You seem to think the laws you espouse as ideals are not inherently written to protect those already in exploitative power.

So it’s better when they try to hide it?

Isn’t that happening with Putin now?

ICC is for states that can’t prosecute within their country.

This is false.

Some suggestions;

1. license it in GPL or another copyleft license so that future contributors will contribute back to the source and not just take what they want and leave. A lot of issues with open source projects not being maintained is because people will spin up an MIT or BSD license and then people, corporate employees, etc. just grab what they want and never contribute back.

2. document all of your code ad nauseum so whoever wants to take over can understand everything easily. That way minimizes NIH syndrome or feeling like it’s easier just to restart.

3. before you turn off the lights, leave a roadmap.

For sure totally agree. So why do the goldfish fancies keep making memes making fun of another community? Why don’t they just defederate?

Why are the libs so hung up on criticizing socialists? If you don’t like this forum then go back to reddit.

Bazqux through the browser works great.

They won’t win. They can’t get a corporate sponsored mod to control Lemmy as it’s decentralized. Just keep calling these losers like OP out and eventually they’ll pick up their toys and go back to their corporate controlled hellscapes like reddit and threads.

No that won’t happen. This is a tactic by whatever group that is so butthurt about having left wing views on the internet to try to tone-control Lemmy. If they can get everyone to agree the slur tankie is bad, they can claim anyone that supports a left wing government that imposes a policy that restricts US freedom to exploit that country is a Tankie.
