Recently came across this page and was pleasantly surprised to see so many useful looking, modern and cohesive open source apps. Primarily targeted for use in Gnome environments but it's usually possible to get these apps in different desktop environments.

Since Greasemonkey is no longer being updated and /kbinStyles has been thriving, with people creating a lot of userscript for added functionality, I thought I should introduce Violentmonkey here. It is a really good opensource alternative for Tampermonkey and works well.

Research in the field of robotics has been booming over the past decade with a view to tackle challenges of real value to industry and the public domain. With new robotic systems appearing every other day, developing reliable tools that can be used to evaluate their performance and test algorithms underpinning their functioning is salient.

Quantum technology is expected to fundamentally change many key areas of society. Researchers are convinced that there are many more useful quantum properties and applications to explore than those we know today. A team of researchers at Chalmers University of Technology in Sweden have now developed open-source, freely available software that will pave the way for new discoveries in the field and accelerate quantum research significantly.

Time to get with the program... before artificial intelligence does Opinion Free software and open source licenses evolved to deal with code in the 1970s and '80s. Today it must again transform to deal with AI models.… AI was born from open source software. But the free software and open source licenses, based on copyright law, to deal with software code are not a good fit for the large language model (LLM) neural nets and datasets that fuel...

I can code, but I never found my way into any project. It's hard to explain, but I'm sort of a dysfunctional human being.

I always loved open source, and back then, I wanted to be an open source developer. I tried some things here and there, but they only became abandoned personal messed up projects or archived github repos.

I believe I could be a competent contributor to some project if I had some guidance, so I thought about asking for help.

La « grève » des modérateurs de #Reddit continue, c'est peut-être l'opportunité de passer à autre chose. J'ai ouvert un compte #kbin sur l'instance Lemmy World, et j'ai recréé ma communauté dédiée au monde de l'#ERP. 😋

Hey folks. Normally I'd throw this on a few subs on Reddit - but things are really going downhill over there. I've sort of landed on an aspirational project that is the culmination of 4 or 5 different ones I've done over the years and I'm ready to start sharing it with the community.

For lack of a better name, I'm calling it "webmesh" at the moment. It aims to be a WireGuard mesh provider akin to projects like TailScale, OpenZiti, etc - but with a controllerless architecture maintained by raft consensus amongst nodes in the mesh. I'm also trying to avoid implementing custom userspace protocols as much as possible and keep the codebase relatively simplistic by relying on existing kernel technologies and tools.

Short term I could see this turning into a type of SaaS on top of the open-source code (happy to talk to anyone interested in joining on such an endeavour), but I also feel like there is a large amount of potential for standardization of some of the concepts to enable better connectivity across devices at the edge. I don't want this to be Web3 or blockchain or cryptocurrency. But I do think it could become what those things promise (without the built-in financial incentives).
After looking through Lemmy's architecture a bit more - I started getting some wild ideas in that space too, but I would need to write a Rust SDK first.

The project is split across three repositories for now. An API repository containing protocol buffers for the inter-node API and Raft logs. The "node" itself which is the implementation of the API and where the bulk of the documentation/examples/etc resides. And an operator repository where I am putting together a Kubernetes operator to allow bootstrapping meshes on k8s clusters.

Repos are all here: https://github.com/orgs/webmeshproj/repositories

Excited to hear any feedback people might have. Cheers :)
