De #HobbyComputerClub (@HCC) is vanaf vandaag aanwezig op Mastodon. Ze zijn sowieso goed bezig om hun leden voor te lichten over onze digitale afhankelijkheid van Big Tech en wat de alternatieven zijn.
Aanbeveling om te volgen dus!

[Opensourcewerken] " Het is de volgende stap in opensourcewerken: een Open Source Program Office(r) (OSPO) pakt de verdere ontwikkeling van open source in de organisatie programmatisch op.

@codefornl coole foto @gijs :)
Nederlandse onderzoekers leggen een opvallend verband tussen de dood van oeverzwaluwen en boerenzwaluwen en blootstelling aan de insecticiden permetrine en tetrametrine via de lucht of via contact met veren.
Deze werkzame stoffen zijn niet zijn toegelaten in de land- en tuinbouw om te spuiten op voedselgewassen of in de Nederlandse sierteelt. Wel staan ze in veel keukenkastjes om vlooien en wespen te bestrijden en mag je er stallen mee ontsmetten.

Excited to announce that the @EUCommission has updated it's follow buttons on the website footer!
What's that first platform there? Could that be #Mastodon?
And where did the link to #X go?
All the posts and comments here on Mastodon calling for this, trust me we read them!

A screenshot from the European commission website footer.
the text "Follow us" is followed by the following icons:
- Mastodon
- LinkedIn
- BlueSky
- Facebook
- YouTube
- Link to more platforms
Underneath is says:

@hpod16 Awesome, thank you and everyone else behind this! Just noticed this: When one selects text, one gets a pop-up that still suggests to share things via X. Hopefully this will also be adjusted?
Alt...
Text on a webpage is selected. A pop-up with symbols for sharing it via email or X is shown.
Huge respect for the EU Commission, @EUCommission, who have updated their webpage with a new follow button — X is out, Mastodon is in!
Remember to reward them with a follow! ♥️🇪🇺

@gijs @ericsfraga the "local help" system in generic, and is genrally used to display hints that modes insert into a buffer using text properties or overlays. With Flymake for example it will print the highlighted warning or error message at point.

Thanks for the "about:translation" feature!
Today we launched https://code.overheid.nl: the NL government-wide code platform 🥳🥳
Code.overheid.nl is a pilot in which we are going to test @forgejo; an open source and sovereign alternative to GitHub/GitLab.
This is an initiative of @BZKopensource, in collaboration with our friends from team DAWO (SSC-ICT), @opensource , @developer , and a number of participating government orgs. 🤝
@tomootes from developer.overheid wrote a nice piece about it: https://developer.overheid.nl/blog/2026/04/24/we-gaan-samen-code-overheid-bouwen

@Gina
Congratulations!
As someone who's more familiar with GitLab, how does Forgejo compare to the (open source) GitLab CE?
Edit: found https://forgejo.org/compare/ which partly answers this.

@developer
Dank je. Ik heb 't gelezen. Alhoewel de niet-vrije licentie van GitLab EE zeker een punt van aandacht is blijft het m.i. wat onderbelicht dat EE ook veel geavanceerde functionaliteit biedt die niet noodzakelijk ook in Forgejo zit. Of je dat als platform nodig denkt te hebben of liever zelf bouwt is een tweede.

Super! Lekker bezig!

Tjeempie!
Proton die werk gaat maken van z'n native linux cliënt en forgejo voor de overheid.
Wat een dag 😃

@Gina @forgejo @BZKopensource @tomootes @bo @johan @marlenabcn @opensource @developer marvellous! Well done everyone 🎉 I'm hoping this will get a lot of traction and I'm certainly willing to do my part within DICTU and DUO 😁
