Where are the HN chat communities now? Matrix? Zulip? Discord?

I hate Discord passionately, but even as head of operations for open source development groups, I have not been able to make the case that alternatives are viable replacements.

Who wants to step up and give us a grant to change this situation?

That sounds like a worthy project! I’m sure Gitcoin and others in retroactive public goods funding would benefit from a list and your efforts. Let’s talk, maybe we can get those people paid!

I always get the best thing I can find that doesn’t offend me. I’m crossing my fingers 64gb of ram is enough for the QubesOS life I want to live on a Librem 14. Dev machines that are underpowered waste your one true scarce resource - time

I have been trying to buy a Librem 14 for Qubes but need a backup. What’s best-in-class?

My daily driver is Qubes and it feels like home. I feel safe and respected.

The true pure faith requires compromises sometimes - when I need to run non-free software for work, I can keep it in a Qube VM and know it can’t mess anything else up. I trust Qubes to be reliable in a way I can’t ever remember experiencing with more traditional operating systems.

There’s a learning curve but I feel like I’m living (at least partially) in the promised land.

We must build a better world.
