To be fair she wants to be referred to as "il primo ministro" with the masculine article.

Partly, but Signal etc. could just as well have a fast and polished client, and Telegram a clunky electron sloth. Even if you restrict yourself to one device (so no syncing) the difference in quality is undeniable.

Me too. It's a shame though that it both feels unfinished and evolves at a glacial speed.

Here in Italy the answer would be that you cannot evade taxes if payments are tracked. I imagine that applies elsewhere too.

Would you have said the same about universities illegally keeping out Nazis, if the Allies had supported their genocide of the Jews?

This argument works against all payment systems that are conceivably bannable (likely all of them). If a payment system doesn't collaborate, the government can ban it.

> The only thing stopping them is the sheer unpopularity of such an action.

This is the intended functioning of democracies I guess.

KDE Connect works great for sharing the clipboard.

I personally searched for and couldn't find an app that gathered various random generation tools, like the ones on random.org (integer sequences and sets, dice, list shuffle...)

Other than that banking, transport, government apps are (almost) never on fdroid, but that's not something a weekend project can fix :)

I see what you mean, but also:

If you want to set e-bikes folks' hair on fire, show how many shoes the government could buy for the cost of an e-bike distribution program. Then, apply that number to the population that would be served by those e-bikes.

I've recently installed (a maintained fork of) Krohnkite[0], a tiling WM for Plasma 6, and I'm happy with it so far after tweaking the key bindings.

Things I miss:

- a scratchpad;

- toggling back and forth between desktops/workspaces with super+number (e.g. super+3 goes to desktop 3, but if I'm already on 3 I want to go back to the previous desktop);

- I also miss a bit the "manual" tiling from i3/sway (where you can choose where the next split will be). Krohnkite is DWM-style with predefined layouts (two columns, spiral, monocle...).

Maybe some of this can be done on Plasma/Krohnkite too (for the third I doubt but it's low priority), I haven't really looked into that.

I've started using TW in the past days with the goal of setting up a cookbook + meal planner with nutritional values computes from the ingredients.

It feels very malleable/hackable, I'm happy with my progress so far, the biggest annoyance is that as far as I can tell the JavaScript API is not documented anywhere.

Initially I looked at Decker and LÖVE, but the former is not suitable for a phone screen and the latter isn't meant for UIs. I would have preferres a non-web solution but TW is a solid choice nonetheless.
