PSA: security vulnerability in qBitorrent 4.5.x webUI
Look at this, notice anything different? https://github.com/Nheko-Reborn/nheko/issues/new/choose

This Year in Matrix
Nheko has been around for a number of years. Never used it myself though.

Matrix was worth the effort to self host.
Matrix clients hit different than pretty much any other chat client I've use before. Theres multiple clients I've found like nheko, moments, element that are a pleasure to look at and smooth as hell. Even better you can have users use web services like Element Web to sign-up and chat. Its sick.

What flatpaks are "official" (i.e., directly from the application's developer)?
The Nheko flatpak is official. Just compare the source to the nightlies we build and upload to our nightly repo.

GTK4 Matrix Client
Like almost every client out there it has no support for e2ee. I was happy to find https://nheko-reborn.github.io (I'm a KDE user so Qt apps are preferred).
- Mozilla Thunderbird Beta now supports Matrix chat

weed rule
There's also FluffyChat or Nheko if Element is too heavy.

Using Files with Browsers, in Reality
I probably wouldn't have guessed that `e.dataTransfer.items` gets cleared at the first await (since I'm not a proficient web developer), but I would've been extremely wary of this code in general. Additionally (not tied to async-await but race conditions in general), is `item.getAsFileSystemHandle()` a TOCTTOU vulnerability where the type of an item can change between folders and files and symlinks etc., while this code is running?
Rust's & vs. &mut system largely eliminates shared state hazards in both threading and asynchronity (&mut is exclusive/unaliased and can't be mutated by other threads or event loop jobs, and & is difficult and unidiomatic to mutate), though it doesn't solve async cancellation errors (https://carllerche.com/2021/06/17/six-ways-to-make-async-rus..., discussed at https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=27542504), or filesystem TOCTTOU (https://blog.rust-lang.org/2022/01/20/cve-2022-21658.html as well as user code).
Qt event loop reentrancy is fun(tm) as well. It looks like a blocking call, but spawns a nested event loop which can do anything (but rarely enough to lull you into a false sense of complacency), resulting in segfaults like https://github.com/Nheko-Reborn/nheko/issues/656 (workaround at https://github.com/Nheko-Reborn/nheko/commit/570d00b000bd558..., I didn't look into it). And Qt lacks "easy" await syntax and a framework based on calling red functions (though I didn't look into C++20 coroutines yet, perhaps https://www.qt.io/blog/asynchronous-apis-in-qt-6 or https://github.com/mhogomchungu/tasks or https://blog.blackquill.cc/asynchronous-qtquick-uis-and-thei...?).

Let's make a definitive guide to the subtle differences in Self Hosted Music Streaming.
Funkwhale API: Never used. Otter.

What Are You Using To Store Your Music On Your Android Phone?
Option 2 is to sign up for an instance of Funkwhale and upload your tunes to your private library there. You can get an app like Otter for your phone from F-Droid. Explore the different instances of Funkwhale as they have different quotas, typically 1 GB to 30 GB. It just depends on how much music you have and the format (lossy vs lossless).

Music server with android tv app?
But I can recommend Funkwhale and it's Android client Otter, which is really sexy smexy.

First Look: ‘Spot’ is a Native Spotify App for Linux, Built in GTK & Rust
Meh. Just ditched Spotify a couple weeks ago. Replaced it with my own large music collection and Funkwhale, which is a really nice music server. I use Otter on Android to connect to it and Lollypop on GNOME to access the music files via NFS. Works great.
What are some alternatives?
