Same, i used to sub with Spotify, in the last 2 years i've been on Apple music, they even have better collection and playlists of non-english music. Spotify is full of rap music and so hard to discover anything else unless you know what you are searching for.
According to the report, Spotify will raise its standard subscription rate by $1 next week, bringing the monthly cost from $9.99 to $10.99.

there are many fediverse alternatives, but honestly they're deserted.
The price of an individual YouTube Premium subscription is increasing by $2 to $13.99 per month in the US for new and current customers. This price increase is live for new subscribers as seen on youtube.com/premium. Instead of $11.99, YouTube Premium now costs $13.99/month. Meanwhile, it’s $18.99 if you’re subscribing from the iOS YouTube app.

As we often report here, it’s common for tech companies to help each other improve their security systems by sharing zero-day exploits found by security researchers. Google, for example, does this a lot. But recently, an Apple employee reportedly found a zero-day exploit in Google Chrome – and that bug was never reported to Apple by that person.

Apple has warned that it will shut down services such as FaceTime and iMessage in the U.K. if the government goes ahead with controversial legislation. A proposed update to the Investigatory Powers Act 2016 is currently in open consultation. Members of the public are invited to offer feedback on the amendments, which include a requirement for messaging services to notify the Home Office, a department of the British Government that handles immigration, security, and law and order, of new security features before they are rolled out, and the right for the Home Office to privately demand that security features be disabled immediately. Under current legislation, the latter can be requested, but there is an independent oversight process and room for appeal before action is taken.
Hi, I thought we could make a list of open source Swift projects that's open to public contribution. Which is one of the most effective ways to really learn programming. We could follow this template to make it easy for readers: **Title in Bold** Short Description: Link:

Most of them are either FB or IG users anyway, so their data are already being taken.

They want to keep the top content creators from considering threads. Threads is a real threat to twitter specially with all the issues around twitter atm.

A new deal on data transfers between the EU and US has alarmed businesses and privacy campaigners. The pact, known as the EU-US Data Privacy Framework, was announced on Monday by the European Commission. The EU’s executive body concluded that the US offered an “adequate level of protection” for data transfers under the new arrangements. The framework replaces the Privacy Shield, which the EU’s top court had struck down in July 2020 over concerns that the US didn’t provide sufficient protection against government surveillance.
Signs of an escalating chip trade war were evident already in October last year. Now, a set of new strategic measures have further ignited the conflict, raising fears over the stability of the global supply chain, and even threatening to derail the EU’s green transition.

yeah seems so. and i'm not sure if software companies really wants that.
Founded out of London in 2021, Outverse is looking to tackle a similar problem to what the likes of Commsor, Common Room, Threado, Talkbase and Crowd.dev are striving to solve, but with a different approach — its mission is to build what it calls a “full-stack community platform” for software companies, replete with forums, knowledge bases, and product documentation.

Today, SUSE announced that it is creating a hard fork of Red Hat Enterprise Linux (RHEL) and that it will develop and maintain an RHEL-compatible distribution. SUSE says that it will invest $10 million into this project over the coming years. One major open source company forking another major open source company’s project is equivalent to going nuclear. But there’s a reason SUSE is doing this now, and that it will likely be championed by many in the open source community. It’s a complicated story.

We’re excited to announce a new open source package called Swift HTTP Types. Building upon insights from Swift on server, app developers, and the broader Swift community, Swift HTTP Types is designed to provide a shared set of currency types for client/server HTTP operations in Swift....

As of today it wouldn’t be that hard, alternatives are available and some of them are as good but don’t have the same market share.

People are moving away from twitter because it’s full of spam, nudity and bullying. That doesn’t makes twitter any unique and/or worthy, that makes it toxic place to be in.
Freedom of speech and (nudity, bullying) are not the same thing.
Saw this on reddit, good quality tutorial.

if facebook and ig are allowed then threads will get the approval anytime soon anyway.
I’ve been following this book while practicing on Arduino during the last 2 months, and I found it extremely helpful. Tbh much of the content is already on the official documentation, but it’s more precise and directed in the book. While the content itself is spot on, some of the code examples does not work/compile on the current Arduino ide.

name.com is a good choice to consider, but they are more expensive than google domains.

the main benefit of this, is that you can self-replace the battery when it becomes excessively degraded and doesn't hold charge as good as a healthy battery. otherwise you'd still need a power-bank for your other tech, such as AirPods or similar stuff.

name.com is really a solid choice, I have used them for over 15 years now, but they are definitely not cheap.
