Browser extensions are underrated: the promise of hackable software
I will leave this as a gallery of emails with offers to buy extension hoverzoom: https://github.com/extesy/hoverzoom/discussions/670
Sidenote: The "collaboration" offers come from time to time even to non-extensions projects, if they are reasonably widely used. E.g. simple tools (rather widely used suite of android apps recently sold).

Chrome's next weapon in the War on Ad Blockers: Slower extension updates
> Manifest V3 will stop this by limiting what Google describes "remotely hosted code." All updates, even to benign things like a filtering list, will need to happen through full extension updates through the Chrome Web Store. They will all be subject to Chrome Web Store reviews process, and that comes with a significant time delay.
So the author can't think of any other reason for this change other than to "slow down ad blocker updates"
Well how about stuff like this: https://github.com/extesy/hoverzoom/discussions/670
Where an extension dev details offers to "monetize" his app and basically perform a bait and switch and make it malicious.
-
Browser extensions spy on you, even if its developers don't
These type of offers are actually quite common. See this[0] and the discussion[1]. I try to stick with only the most popular of extensions in the hope that any malicious changes would be widespread news, but it is still a gamble.

Uninstall the NightOwl macOS app now
As a maintainer of a semi-popular chrome extension[1], I receive so many buy-out offers that I started publicly collecting them[2] for everyone to see.

Is there a Hover Zoom/Imagus that works in 2022?
It works in places that Imagus had stopped working. He also has a Github page for it: https://github.com/extesy/hoverzoom/

discord.py development ceased
I think this is a pretty key point. Think of all of the unscrupulous ways that browser extensions can be monetized. Imagine someone offering money to a Discord bot developer to give them statistics on which games are discussed most frequently in channels that the bot operates in.

Qilin: A Starter Project Template For Every Open Source Project
GitHub Discussions can also be a great place for support as long as these are regularly monitored. Another option along the same lines is Discourse and the Open Source Matrix which is used by quite a few Open Source and community-based projects.

Launching Default End-to-End Encryption on Messenger
I'd love something like the Matrix [0] data model (JSON messages aggregated in an eventually-consistent chatroom CRDT) transmitted over something like simplex for metadata resistance.

Discord Is Not Documentation
Telegram isn't great for having a main topic with siloed discussions about sub-categories of things.
Slack costs a lot of money if you want searchable history.
Matrix (https://matrix.org/) is pretty bad when you get to using it. It works, but the QOL isn't up to Discord's level.
Discord is just as easy to replace as any other chat platform if they decide to sell out or destroy their product.
> Telegram isn't great for having an overarching place for everyone to join with siloed discussions for sub-categories of discussion.
Just want to point out that they fixed this, it's possible to create Topics once the channel's community reaches 200 users.
Though this probably isn't what most users want for a support channel. Having one place to go is simpler then a community with a dozen company meme channels that you have no interest in seeing.
> Matrix (https://matrix.org/) is pretty bad when you get to using it. It works, but the QOL isn't up to Discord's level.
It goes to hell if you make the mistake of enabling E2EE for channels since the key exchange bogs it down and only a few clients support encrypted message search. Otherwise, yeah the Element clients have pretty bad UX especially when comparing to Telegram. Some other clients like Nheko improve on it but don't cover the full set of features, so while I'm a user of Matrix I find it hard to continue to recommend Matrix over chat ecosystems with better usability.
