#mutualaid @mutualaid I've been on sick leave for more than a year due to #fibromyalgia. Social Security pays me €242,20/month, but that's never enough for my monthly appointment, and meds for the fibro, ibs and asthma. Fortunately, the wife is working, but we've been late on rent a few times bc money is always short and we also need to eat. If you can help me, I'll be very thankful ❤️

If you have a #FOSS project and need hosting, please apply at https://fosshost.org. Please read Fosshost's wiki first, to learn about the eligibility criteria https://docs.fosshost.org/general/application/
If you want to check my software repository, the address is https://userrepository.eu
Also, I have a personal blog at https://blog.brunomiguel.net, mostly written in European Portuguese
Ahoy! Guess I should do an #introduction.
I'm Bruno, from the land of the 100000000 codfish recipes, Portugal.
I love #FOSS and #Privacy, and I volunteer with Fosshost.
I also run an Arch-based repository, blog about the hell of living with fibromyalgia, and love webcomics and dad jokes 😅.
I've been on and off from the #fediverse since the Identi.ca times, but now that the smelly Musk is buying Twitter, I'll be more active here.

If you use the @FediFollows directory (at https://mastodon.online/@FediFollows/108521414258703203), when you click on an account's follow button it will ask you to enter your own Mastodon address, in a process called "remote follow".
Remote follows are annoying as you have to keep entering your details again and again, even though you've already logged in on your home server 🤬
Fortunately, there is now a solution, a new plug-in for Firefox browsers called "Mastodon Simplified Federation":
https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/mastodon-simplified-federation
When the plug-in is installed, you don't need to enter your address any more when doing remote follows 👍
The plug-in is written by @rugk and you can find out more info at https://github.com/rugk/mastodon-simplified-federation
(Thanks @aral for mentioning this plugin!)

Devs, do you recommend a #FOSS IDE (with a GUI, I'm a n00b) for PHP? I've seen PHPStorm, which has a really cool functionality where I can click the name of an invoked function, and it will forward me to the file and/or location where it is initialized. I've tried Kate, which kind of does this; Netbeans, which does it but complicates a lot of stuff; VScodium, which, as far as I can tell, doesn't do it unless I have the specific file open #xp
No more extensions for this https://www.bleepingcomputer.com/news/security/new-firefox-privacy-feature-strips-urls-of-tracking-parameters/
If you want to volunteer with a #FOSS project, we have several opportunities for you to contribute to the Free Software community. You can learn more about them here https://docs.fosshost.org/about/volunteering-opportunities/
Some period tracking apps will share your data. Stay safe, use one from @fdroidorg without Internet permission.
Possible options are:
drip (safest!)
Periodical
log28
All of these apps don't ask for internet permission and thus can't share your data. Drip goes the extra mile and explicitly opts out of Android's backup framework so your data won't be backed up on Google servers.
Please boost for those who need it!
Darktable is a free open source raw photo processing app for Linux, Mac and Windows, sort of a libre alternative to Adobe's Lightroom.

I run an #Arch #Linux repository, and I proudly volunteer with #Fosshost. These are two ways I try to give back to the #FOSS community.
In July 2020, I was diagnosed with #fibromyalgia and I've been in pain 24/7 ever since.
#photography is a passion of mine. I'm an amateur, but I can't stop shooting pictures.
I'll be tooting in pt-PT and en-US/en-GB
