Changes to orientation and resizability APIs in Android 16 (android-developers.googleblog.com)
submitted 1 month ago by pylapp to c/a11y

Breaking change in Android!

"Starting with Android 16, [Google] will phase out manifest attributes and runtime APIs used to restrict an app's orientation and resizability, enabling better user experiences for many apps across devices."

Changes will come with API 36 and will be mandatory with API 37.

A script to compute GitHub organisation year review (github.com)
submitted 1 month ago by pylapp to c/github

Just implemented in a tool box a Python script which can request GitHub API to get figures and details from an organisation and compute results.

The logs can then be used for example to make KPI and ranking.

See for example: https://github.com/Orange-OpenSource/floss-toolbox/discussions/187

Liste of non-AI licenses in a GitHub repository in c/opensource
[–] pylapp 3 points 2 months ago

Not sure of that, maybe we need some case law or update on existing copyleft licenses. Source code generated with GenAI tool, even if their model have been trained with corpora of copyleft sources, are not (yet) considered as derivative works. What a pitty.

Could be interesting. Non-free and current GenAI tools violate copyright, we may consider some evolutions of copyfarleft licenses to forbid such use of source code in these types of tools.

Just wanted to share for the common knowledge and the debate as I already saw here some “post open source” and content about rubbish licenses like SSPL or BSL 😉

Even if these licenses cannot be considered as open source and libre (according to OSI and FSF definitions, the only ones which matter), several licenses prohibiting use of source code to train AI are listed in this repository. Nice initiative.

Enshitification made third-party apps disappeared. Prefer true open source project instead like Pixelfed for example.

How do i ask for contributors to my open source projects? in c/programming
[–] pylapp 7 points 2 months ago (1 children)

Be sure also the issues you have in your project have the suitable labels to help future contributors to pick easily some of them, i.e. labels like “help wanted” or “good first issue”.

You can also refer to best practices listed and explained for example in Advent of Open Source so as to have a nice and user-friendly repo: https://adventofopensource.com/

Every door, a POI and entrance editor (every-door.app)
 

I just discovered the project “Every Door” which allows you to edit elements for OpenStreetMap in the blink of an eye.

The project is a simple mobile app written in Flutter and is also opensource under ISC license.

Have a look on Organic Maps (https://organicmaps.app) or OSMAnd for example (https://osmand.net/).

Is there a way to hide dependabot commits in the history of a repo? in c/programming
[–] pylapp 1 points 5 months ago (2 children)

BTW I hope any project won’t increase the Z version only by including Dependabot commits, it would be insane. Release must be documented, tested, with CHANGELOG updated. If some maintainers just accept Dependabot commits without checking, move away. That’s just simple crappy auto-merge.

Nice idea 👍

Best Alternatives to GitHub? in c/opensource@lemmy.ml
[–] pylapp 6 points 5 months ago

Whatever the solution behind is, if you have the resources, move to something self-hosted. Open core or not, if that topic matters to you, you might need something you can own and control. BTW, have a look on Forgejo, Codeberg and Gitea: these are the solutions I see when people look for something FLOSS, not open core, and maybe self-hostable.
