A journalist-turned-product leader on reshaping the internet through community and creative coding

Here at Mozilla, we are the first to admit the internet isn’t perfect, but we know the internet is pretty darn magical. The internet opens up doors and opportunities, allows for human connection, and lets everyone find where they belong — their corners of the internet. We all have an internet story worth sharing.

F-Droid website now available in Czech!

by

I believe privacy and freedom are fundamental rights and should be available
to everyone in the world. A few years ago, I’ve started translating FOSS
apps on Weblate, which has evolved to me
being a maintainer of many projects, including F-Droid. Now I’ve finally
finished reviewing all website strings and I’m happy to announce that the
website is now also available in the Czech language! F-Droid is used by many
even here in the Czech Republic, and I believe this will help even more
users to discover this awesome project.

Many thanks also to the past volunteer translators, without whom the
translation would have taken me much longer. If you think you can also help
with translating F-Droid, feel free to! You can find all information in the
documentation.

You can also help F-Droid by contributing to the
code, reporting
issues or making a
donation. Any help is appreciated!

If you need to contact me, you can find me in the F-Droid
Translators room on Matrix. Next
step is translating the documentation and posts, so if you can lend a hand,
I’d be very happy!

And of course, thanks to all F-Droid maintainers and contributors for making
this awesome project!

Google is killing its one-click app to run Chrome OS in a VM on Android devices

by
Remember earlier this year, when Android Authority discovered Google was experimenting with letting you run full Chrome OS on your Android device? In case you were wondering if that particular piece of spaghetti was sticking to the wall, I’m sorry to disappoint you it isn’t. Despite creating the Ferrochrome launcher app, which would’ve made the whole thing a one-click affair, Google has just removed the whole concept from the Android code base altogether. Unfortunately, though, Google has decided to kill its Ferrochrome launcher app. This was revealed to us by a code change recently submitted to the AOSP Gerrit. The code change, which hasn’t been merged yet, removes the entire Ferrochrome launcher app from AOSP. Google’s reason for removing this app is that it doesn’t plan to ship it or maintain its code. It seems that Google is shifting towards using the Linux-based Debian distro instead of Chrome OS as its testbed for AVF development. ↫ Mishaal Rahman at Android Authority I’m not really sure if people were really asking for something like this, and to Google’s credit – for once – the company never even so much as hinted at releasing this to the general public. Still, the idea of carrying just your phone with you as your primary computer, and plugging into a display and input devices as the need arises, remains something a lot of people are fascinated with, and putting Chrome OS on your Android phone would’ve been one way to achieve this goal. Despite decades of attempts, it seems not even the smartest people in Silicon Valley can crack this nut. Perhaps they should ask Gemini to solve it for them? It doesn’t involve pizza’s, glue, or rocks, so who knows – it might surprise them!

Moodle 4.5 QA testing cycle complete

by
by Simey Lameze.  

We want to say a big thank you to all our QA testers for helping us complete 444 tests during this cycle! Your teamwork and dedication made the 100% pass rate achievement possible. 🧡

All testers will be awarded a badge, so please ensure you have a valid moodle.org account and that your details are correct to receive it. 

We would also like to highlight a specific issue we’ve identified with Microsoft OneDrive, where teachers are unable to edit documents stored on OneDrive using controlled links. We have confirmed that this is not a regression in Moodle but rather an issue on the Microsoft side. To address this, we have created MDL-83341 for further investigation and resolution.

A big thanks to our core developers for their swift action in fixing the bugs we encountered during testing. Your hard work ensures we’re ready for the release of Moodle 4.5!

Lastly, thank you to everyone who contributed in any way—whether through testing, investigating, or fixing bugs. Your efforts have been crucial in maintaining the quality and reliability of Moodle for educators and learners worldwide. 🚀🏆
