It’s been a while since I didn’t visited a website not mobile-ready… Hopefully reader-mode works as expected.

I concur, a very well crafted and maintained project.
mthld | 4 years ago | on: Saying goodbye to an old friend
To be honest it wasn’t a thing anymore since some years already. I was a client of them and I stopped using Better facing too many issues and no help from the maintainers…

That’s an interesting question indeed. Based on this public documentation from Stripe it seems they take a 1% cut: https://stripe.com/pricing/local-payment-methods
But maybe I don’t understand it properly, first they talk about a fee then there is a table with prices…

I happen to be somewhat disappointed by Signal recently (crypto payments bundled in app, shady open-source practices…) but to this day I cannot find any viable alternative as a full-featured messaging application (and don’t tell me about Matrix ecosystem). So when these financial contributions features were added I decided to subscribe for 5€ per month. If you value Signal services I encourage you to do the same!

Thanks for the detailed explanation, I better understand now and indeed it has no place here.

English isn't my mother tongue, I thought the expression was appropriate but reading your comments I realised maybe not. Update the title accordingly.

It became slow and unresponsive over the months, eating more and more memory. I'm currently trying the community supported ARM version and it's a relief.
mthld | 4 years ago | on: Signal won't support M1 Macs anytime soon
The community already done that: https://github.com/dennisameling/signal-desktop (working on Windows & Apple ARM). Still, I think it's a shame that all the work was done, ready to be merged (needed PRs were open) and Signal devs just shut the door on it.

Do you already know Flarum? If so, did you tried it?
mthld | 4 years ago | on: Thoughts.page: hosting a small webpage for your thoughts
I really love the pricing model, refreshing:
> thoughts.page is free for anyone who makes less than $40,000 USD/year, and costs $5/month otherwise.

They aren’t even close to Digital Ocean in terms of quality of service, support, performances or documentation. They are more like OVH, another french provider.
A lot of software limitations of their products aren’t documented, an example: don’t expect to put more than 40k files in one single object storage bucket. It’s written nowhere and when you’ll start encountering strange errors with your apps you’ll have to deal with the support team. First you need to pass the triage level where people have no clue about whatever is technical, then after a few days you will go higher in the chain and finally be redirected at someone in charge of the production who will announce you that kind of limitation.
Disclaimer: I’ve been a customer since the very start of Scaleway (attracted by the low prices), then got dissatisfied a lot and asked my account being deleted last week.
mthld | 4 years ago | on: Chinese activist Ai Weiwei says Credit Suisse closing foundation's bank account
You are completely true about China, and the bipartisan cooperation Switzerland is working on must cease. But alas, it’s not the trend. The Swiss government is even inviting China police investigators to come over and lead their investigations on China nationals directly on Swiss land. The whole situation is a shame, economics are indeed the reason behind all this.

A reminder for us all that Switzerland is not an heaven protecting the oppressed. Capitalism always win.

Is the input lag in par with other e-ink notebooks?

I believe the website must be hosted on a homeserver on some shelve somewhere. I still can’t reach the page, timeouts!

What is « Magit »?? Can’t find any information about it on this GitHub repository.

So they can’t be removed, right?

Actually there isn't any residues left on the surface, it's perfectly smooth without any asperities. I wonder if it has been caused by the effect of the sun? Because the marks really looks like decals now...

She surely can’t use it if she don’t receive the validation email as I do!
