I encourage everyone to chip in on this crowd fund campaign. Louis Rossman, well-known Right to Repair lobbyist wants to get laws passed in his country USA for Right to Repair.
This will greatly benefit projects like coreboot and riscv-related projects.

Right to repair means: access to schematics, boardviews and other such info necessary for repair. Presently, hardware/logic info is highly restrictive. This law would be a huge legal precedent for future rights.

@fatboy I think the mobile version of firefox removed the 'about:config' feature. You can try Iceraven which still has that feature and is based on Firefox? Good luck
The final result is:
* R = 25%
* G = 40%
* B = 36%
As expected (and described in the thread), the gamut is pretty low (ie. not an immense possibility of colours, due to fact that masto polls options sum is 100)
0..100 to 0..255 (in gimp) give:
* R = 63.8 (64)
* G = 102
* B = 91.8 (92)
HTML: #40665C
It's a soft, dark, bluish green!
It's complimentary color is #66404A (102,64,74)
Its triadic scheme:
#5C4066 (92,64,102) and #665C40 (102,92,64)
We could call it "Fédi-vert"?

The #Signal messenger has become very problematic lately, and most of its problems come from it being centralised.
You may want to follow and support a decentralised messenger project instead, there are many of them on the Fediverse:
➡️ @snikket_im - New initiative giving XMPP servers & clients a newbie-friendly unified look and feel
➡️ @xmpp - The XMPP standards foundation
➡️ @matrix - Matrix is best known for its Element client
➡️ @delta - Messaging through email
➡️ @briar - P2P messaging
All 3 Browser Ecosystem Suck!
Look's like everyone is following #Brave 's model.
#Chrome on device #FLOC

#Firefox and this new Scroll thing

All 3 browsers are 'owned' (influenced) by Google.
The rendering engine (Chromium/Blink) & Funding (Mozilla/Firefox)
Alt browsers like qutebrowser don't have a cross device ecosystem
#Apple won't release #Safari as #freesoftware
We don't live in the magical #openweb
We are at the mercy of #google
