This week in KDE: Adaptive panel opacity and auto-restored unsaved documents in Kate!
development update, please support me :)
As usual, please support me if you think my work is useful! You can do so on Buy me a coffee (https://www.buymeacoffee.com/ariasuni) or Liberapay (https://liberapay.com/ariasuni/).
I have financial difficulties right now and am trying to find a way to have more stability, but in the meantime I still gotta pay my rent, my food and my medical bills.
development update, An Anarchist FAQ
I worked again recently on a project of mine to crawl An Anarchist FAQ and provide it as a package, to replace the tools that were used since then to make the Debian package.
This is useful especially since the tools used now seems a bit complicated for the task, and the fact that the structure of An Anarchist FAQ changed is a good occasion to make something simpler.
Also provide a very minimal but nice CSS to make it easy to read.
development update, Mastodon
A few months ago I though really hard on how to fix the sometimes weird ordering of some of Mastodon’s menus. A few weeks ago, I fixed it:
https://github.com/tootsuite/mastodon/pull/15647
Also I was surprised to be reminded of the several contributions I made to Mastodon in 3.3.0, quite a few little improvements! (you can search for ariasuni)
https://github.com/tootsuite/mastodon/releases/tag/v3.3.0
development update, misc
My PR to add some doc to MDN has been merged:
https://github.com/mdn/content/pull/335
Also one in yari, the software that powers MDN:
https://github.com/mdn/yari/pull/2228
I worked on my WebExtensions to control speed of video/audio, which I talk about here:
– https://mastodon.technology/@ariasuni/105715948057739554
– https://mastodon.technology/@ariasuni/105833000664237247
Also it works on Youtube but only in Nightly so I didn’t published it, yet
One of my patch that was merged in Thunderbird had a bug so I fixed it:
https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1691285
development update, exa
It’s been a while I didn’t do one of those.
I triaged a lot of exa[1] issues, closing like 20 or 30 of them in December and January, and just answering to others. I wrote 4 PRs[2], merged one of mines and 3 others[3].

WebExtension project
I’m not sure what to do about the video that hijack the right-click. Should I inject my very small JavaScript in every webpage so I can have the same feature on right-click anywhere on the page? Should I make the extension an icon that injects the JavaScript when clicked and display the UI in a popup?
It sounds like a lot of work for all these shit websites that remove native right-click options…
I discovered pulse-autoconf (for Linux and other systems that use PulseAudio) and it’s awesome:
https://eomanis.duckdns.org/permshare/pulse-autoconf/
(though I needed to run it with `LANG=C pulse-autoconf` because of a bug when your system is not in English; I mailed the dev about it)

Back to Basics – Joel on Software

Soucis de ram
Voilà, petit retour d'expérience. Sur Ubuntu c'est super simple à installer et à configurer (sudo apt install zram-config, puis zramctl pour voir l'état).
Si vous êtes en galère de mémoire pour une raison X ou Y, ça peut être une solution intéressante !
Funkwhale 1.1-rc2 was published this morning and should fix several regressions and bugs that where reported in the first update :)

Found a bug in KDE software? Here's how you can help us solve it:
What's up with K-9 Mail?
The release of the latest stable version of K-9 Mail was in September 2018, nearly two years ago. So, of course, many of you have been wondering if K-9 Mail is dead. I’m happy to inform you that [it’s] not the case. Work on K-9 Mail was slow at times, but has never really stopped.
On parle de l’avancement du projet, des problèmes avec les conditions requises par G.Play, refonte de l’interface… et une version bêta !
Le projet K-9 Mail est en recherche de financement !
Le développeur principal attend un revenu mensuel de mil euros, soit cinquante-deux milliers d’euros à l’année, pour être financé à temps plein sur ce projet open-source & assurer un développement sûr et serein.
