Hi, I think too many people are focusing too much on the type of software included in this chart. I don’t think the goal of the person that created the chart was to create the ultimate guide to move to the Fediverse or FOSS apps with all the options available for them. I believe it prioritizes simplicity, and it’s clearly directed towards people unaware that these alternatives exist.

Most people I know don’t even know what the Fediverse is, and I think this initiative is for them.

I know that debating which FOSS/Fedi apps are the best is a big matter of concern for people that are already aware of the problems some platform have. But focusing too much on this debate not only creates more division among supporters of FOSS/Fedi, but it is also drawing attention from the main point: Bringing more people to the Fediverse.

Hi, I didn’t created the chart, and you’re right, Signal is not federated. But I think the big aspect several people have missed about this initiative is not which FOSS option for messaging is the best (which I understand is a big matter of concern for a lot of people already aware of the problems of proprietary apps), but making people completely unaware that there are options know that they can use something that respects their privacy and treats them as humans, not just “users”/“consumers”, which is from my point of view, one of the main strengths of FOSS and Fedi apps.

I’ll start with one: Cambridge Analytica https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Facebook–Cambridge_Analytica_data_scandal

I would like to give a proper try to a tiling window manager. I would like to try QTile, but I haven’t gone through the documentation to understand how to customize it properly. Currently, I use GNOME (and actually, I like it a lot). Also, I love TMUX, and the idea of having the same flexibility and keyboard-centric experience on a broader level makes me think that I will love a tiling window manager when I try it. I’m interested in QTile because I know it’s configured in Python (which is a programming language I already know), and apparently, it can be used on either X or Wayland. Have you ever tried using it on Wayland? Does it work properly? Besides QTile, what else would you recommend?
