If you want to tax the rich, tax the fucking rich. This is all theater.

Good thing it's not even close to being law. :)

French government is desperately in need of cash, so the tech illiterate politicians ask Cat, I Farted® for help and it gives them this.

How about an advertising tax? Every company serving ads through the internet (aka platforms, particularly the exploitive ones) need to pay up. That's Facebook, YouTube, TikTok, etc.

This seems kinda insane... You just turned the majority of the internet into a metered connection after fighting for years to not be metered at the ISP level... Best of luck with that... :(

Exclude non-profits and open-source software. In fact, tax multinationals out of existence.

starting to wonder if they actually know what "local" means for software.

Since it's misleading maybe just stop calling it local-first? The only thing local about it is that it's a desktop app and not a website. You'll only get negative comments for pretending.

How is it "local-first" if I have to pay for hosted models in order to use it?

Its

Whose?

It works quite well for simple stuff. I usually mix it with ffmpeg commands for simple effects and audio work.

Haven't tried too much, just 1 or 2 videos a year. So far, this has been quite consistent over past 5 years

Openshot has a long history. It used to be super buggy in the past, I haven't tried it recently. But at least is not some new kind of AI slop.

Its Video editing software

Yes! I love discovering new FOSS software. Thanks for bring this one to my attention.

Does RubyCentral have anything to do with DHH or are these the good folks?

Sadly, I don't see any small projects on there. The little guy in Nebraska still gets nothing :(

cause its a tracker/ad company, and your setup at home works as intended.

A shame that people misusing analytic and telemetry. They do provide very useful information for developer when shit goes wrong. But the same data is also very valuable for profiling the person using the program

Hot damn, that's a ton of unrelated project to them and they still do it. Good for them

I appreciate that. This does look like good news!

Possibly. I use Firefox focus with Safari to block content. Odd that it’s never happened before though. I’ve had this setup for several years now.

Edit: it works fine on my desktop!

Check your autocorrect....

You probably have some sort of blocker. Everything related to sentry is usually blocked either by ublock, adguard or pi hole

Edit: stupid phone autocorrected corrections

1/2 of the money was distributed through here https://thanks.dev/o/sentry-261019

The rest went to foundations like Python, Django and Rust, and individual projects like FFmpeg, jellyfin and FreeCAD.

Thanks for the heads up. I’m in Ireland and on mobile (iOS, so Safari and Firefox). I’ll try on desktop when I can.

The link doesn’t open for me.

It does for me.

(I'm in Canada, FWIW.)
