Ortholinear laptop keyboards?
Only other one I'm aware of is ThinKeys, mechanical replacement for the keyboard in some thinkpad versions. Though it uses kailh X switches which are notoriously very bad, still cool to see.

I love my Framework Laptop
The only thing I would love to see is a keyboard mod for something ergonomic. Something like the ThinKeys project, or the pineapple60 project. I'm not sure if I have the time, but maybe I could try my hand at prototyping something, if Framework has the relevant specs open-sourced and documented somewhere?

Japanese Laptops
I know there's been some other drop-in lenovo ergo keyboard efforts like https://modulo.industries/ (see their reddit post in https://www.reddit.com/r/ErgoMechKeyboards/comments/n8ouqi/ic_thinkeys_13_split_ortho_with_trackpoint_for/ ) - was tempted to go this route at one point but heard some concerns about the reliability of kailh x switches.

Non-mechanical split keyboard
You may be interested in the ThinkKeys project. Other than that as someone else has commented kail choc switches and a DIY kit like splitkb.com kyria gets you pretty close, but you'll also be getting linear plus columnar stagger which is better, but will differ from your thinkpad. Kail choc red feel pretty good to me and I also like my thinkpad switches. There's also kail low profile butterfly switches which are truly laptop switches but I've never seen anyone actually use them in a DIY build.

Ortholinear Laptop! Making a keyboard kit for the MNT Reform. Need some feedback - layout options and details in the comments!
I've been dreaming for an ortho laptop with a trackpoint for quite some time now, and I only know of the thinkeys (github) as a similar project. You might be interested in how he integrated a trackpoint in his design!

The KDE desktop gets an overhaul with Plasma 6
There is this list of 15-minute bugs that should be easy to tackle https://bugs.kde.org/buglist.cgi?bug_severity=critical&bug_s...
Also strarting on smaller KDE applications is usually a great way to start, For example the Plasma widgets/applets or KDE games or educational applications.

The Matrix Trashfire
Hi, I'm the Thib person mention in this article, and I agree that QA is super important. I can mostly talk about matrix.org, since I have little power over the Element clients. Disclaimer though: I'm technically employed by Element (to make paperwork simpler since I'm France-based, Element has an entity in France, and the Foundation is UK-based), but I'm working for the Foundation full time.
This kind of article is super valuable since it gives us the perspective of a new user. I opened https://github.com/matrix-org/matrix.org/issues/2178 to translate the gripes mentioned in the issue into actionable items for us. I took action on the most urgent one (updating the Try Matrix page), but want to take the time to go beyond the surface symptoms and address the root cause of the other gripes.
On the Foundation side, we're a small but mighty team of four. The website is currently maintained part time by me and a volunteer who is doing an excellent job at it.
As I wrote recently in a blog post "Tracking what works, not people" (https://ergaster.org/posts/2024/01/24-tracking-what-works/), I would love to have the resources to conduct user research and user testing on the website but I unfortunately don't. We deployed privacy-preserving analytics to see where people drop and what confuses them. It's not nearly as good as proper QA and user testing, but that's what we can afford for now.
Overall I'm grateful to the author for documenting their frustration, and even more grateful for reacting constructively to our responses and integrating them in the blog post! One of the strengths of open source is to find and address issues collectively. I consider this blog post to be a good open source contribution.
If people around believe in our mission and want to help us with their brainpower, I invite them to join our "Office of the Matrix.org Foundation" room: https://matrix.to/#/%23foundation-office:matrix.org
For those aligned with our mission and who want to support us financially, the https://matrix.org/support/ page should give you all the information you need to help us out.

Show HN: Desert Atlas, a Self-Hosted OpenStreetMap App for Sandstorm
Hi all,
This project release is a long time coming. It was a big uphill battle, and by far my largest endeavor so far. I built it for Sandstorm because I believe in Sandstorm's model, and I wanted to show that there's still life and potential in it. If you're inspired, joining our OpenCollective would be really helpful: https://opencollective.com/sandstormcommunity (keeping in mind that Sandstorm has now moved from its original leadership to a community project https://sandstorm.org/news/2023-11-03-from-io-to-org).
You can also join our mailing list or connect on the fediverse: https://sandstorm.org/community (The IRC link is outdated, we've effectively moved to Matrix for now due to the libera.chat split: https://matrix.to/#/#sandstorm:libera.chat)
Also: I'm open for hire! You can see some of my skills in putting things together in this blog post. I'd love to work in something FOSS or OSM related, but not a requirement. I mostly do Python and Golang, with a bit of Haskell under my belt. Other projects and resume here: https://github.com/orblivion/me

Shutting down the Matrix bridge to Libera Chat
I really appreciate you sharing your concerns, and for all the hope and energy you've put into Matrix to date. Very much to your point, we're not yet in a state where I recommend Matrix to friends and family. Right now I only use it with people in FOSS and other circles where folks are a little more patient with the tech.
Only time will tell, and of course I'm biased as the Matrix.org Foundation's Managing Director, but I think there's good reason to remain hopeful:
The spec continues to evolve with major improvements expected in feature set and performance in the next year as we get to the 2.0 spec release, the Foundation is staffing up and beginning to fundraise, we're on the cusp of holding our first ever community elections to seat a Governing Board, and adoption has continued doubling on an annual basis.
I invite you and anyone else who is invested and/or concerned to join us in the Foundation's new office room – it's a way to get a view into ongoing activities, ask questions, provide direct feedback, and celebrate all the little wins on our way to collective success: https://matrix.to/#/#foundation-office:matrix.org
