From the README at the current published commit:

The current focus is on implementing next-word suggestions, which has become complicated/hit a snag and is taking more time than originally planned. Updates will come when this issue is resolved. Thank you for being patient.

Prior to this, releases occurred quite regularly.

Matrix doesn't require you to set up a server.

Wouldn't it be far better to compare fuel cost per mile ($/mile)? This graphic seems useless to me. Maybe I'm missing something.

Bug report: Backspace behavior when writing comments in c/[email protected]

@whatever and @Flyswat, you're right, it still happens with Jerboa 0.0.42. I didn't realize the behavior was related to the specific keyboard in use.

Yes, and it is very annoying. ~~However it does not seem to be happening now with Jerboa 0.0.42.~~

Edit: This is still happening for me too, as of Jerboa 0.0.42, with the AOSP keyboard. It does not happen in any other apps.

If you had $5,000 to donate to your favourite open-source projects, which one would they be? in c/[email protected]

I recommend using Molly instead if you need to communicate with Signal users. Note, the Molly-FOSS flavor excludes proprietary Google libraries entirely.

If you are interested in trying an alternative that is unrelated to Signal, I suggest looking at SimpleX Chat.

Just FYI, Signal (Open Whisper Systems) is not FOSS-friendly. The server-side software is not open source, they refuse to federate with other Signal implementations, and they are unfriendly to forks. See:

If you haven't already, check for Nouveau support. And if your card is supported, you may need a kernel parameter. I needed nouveau.config=NvClkMode=15 (but be warned some parameters like that have some risk, like possibility of overheating, and may or may not be applicable or safe for your GPU).

For me, it has worked to just set environment variable DRI_PRIME=1 to use the Nvidia GPU for that specific application. (Maybe this is what Bumblebee does; I don't know.)

In the future, though, I recommend avoiding Nvidia hardware.
