So I'm trying out #VIvaldi browser (@Vivaldi) on #Ubuntu and I'll report back with what I think.

So far the initial setup and tinkering has been going well, I've got my password manager, feed reader all setup. Every optional piece of fluff that is "useful for someone but not me" has been dismissable or can be hidden from view. Great initial impression 👍

I'm giving @Codeberg a spin, really love the idea of a non-profit open source code repository so its members can control. If I enjoy the service enough perhaps I'll become a voting member.

Anyone have specific features or stories about Codeberg they'd be willing to share?

Sentry putting their money where their mouth is, and a teaser for @ecosystems and @opencollective cross-over project too? This is awesome!

@pypi now requires #2FA for new user registrations in order to publish or create new projects. This is part of a broader effort to require 2FA for all users of #PyPI by the end of 2023.
