Björn Schießle (bes@io.schiessle.org)'s status on Sunday, 27-Aug-2017 17:49:02 UTC Björn Schießle Using Riot/Matrix as IRC bridge seams to break direct messages
I started playing around with using Riot as IRC bridge because it provides a quite nice user experience on both the desktop and mobile. But it seems like only registered user can send me now a direct message on freenode. That's really bad... Is there any way to change this?

Björn Schießle (bes@io.schiessle.org)'s status on Friday, 18-Aug-2017 17:19:24 UTC Björn Schießle Security record of open source and free software
"The Coverity report finds a slightly lower defect density of free software versus proprietary software; in the area of Web applications, however, the exact opposite result was found, which is essentially due to the security weakness of PHP."

Björn Schießle (bes@io.schiessle.org)'s status on Wednesday, 16-Aug-2017 18:19:24 UTC Björn Schießle Easy XMPP, small improvements can make a difference
The easy XMPP initiative tries to identify all the small UX glitches and fix them. That's a great first step in the right direction. For user discovery I would love to see mobile clients to check my address book, auto add contacts with a XMPP address and automatically check contacts email addresses for XMPP capabilities. This would be a easy, privacy respecting way to auto-populate the contact list.

"Google is aggressively using its monopoly position in Internet services such as Google Mail, Google Calendar and YouTube to advertise Chrome."
Do we really want a WWW dominated by one big company? I hope we learned something from the past!
