@giorgiolucas Wouldn’t releasing the source code with a specific version basically kill any incentive for customers to pay for upgrades, since they could just keep patching that version themselves?

@ondrejkolin @gnome Thanks a lot for your continuing support. It makes a difference!

I'm speaking on the 26th of April (tomorrow!!) at https://www.oggcamp.org/ in Manchester speaking about my much loved Open Source Design Diary studies project! which you can read here:https://github.com/sprblm/Diary-Studies-Designers-in-OSS/This study is now a few years old and i'd be great to get another one of these done. Please reach out if you'd like to see more data and insights from design, usability, user research etc. being done in OSS!#oggcamp #oggcamp26 #oss #opensource #opensourcedesign

A photo from Open Source Design devroom for 2026's FOSDEM! Had fantastic time running the devroom for another year with some fantastic speakers, audience and folks willing to chip in and help make the room great.We also finally took an updated photo of the devroom (this was towards the end of the day and not at all the busiest the room got which was at capacity for most of the talks!)Watch the videos on each talk page here:https://fosdem.org/2026/schedule/track/design/#oss #fosdem #opensourcedesign #ossdesign

@downey@floss.social @relay@relay.infosec.exchange As much as I wish this were true, it’s not. Obscurity is a valid security layer and open source software with exposed source code _does_ make it easier for attackers to find attack vectors.Without access to source code an attacker has to infer vulnerabilities by hitting the code. Those recon hits are visible in security tools like SIEMs.Open source vulnerabilities can be discovered directly from the source and the attacker can craft the perfect exploit without ever touching production code. Then hit it once very effectively, probably escaping detection because there’s no recon signals.The days of #OSS being used for actual critical applications is drawing to a close.#infosec

This weekend I should be able to publish a blog post on how to defeat MAC spoofing, aka Private Address, and get the factory MAC. It won’t work in every circumstance, but imo it’s a valid approach.
