The first link was wrong. I updated it to the one I intended to share, about Françafrique.

Like working in some FAANG? Spending tons of money into accelerating climate change, maximizing profits for stakeholders while aggressively suppressing every cooperative efforts for the workers to unionize?

Sounds great! Congrats!

And where do you think these governments comes from? Why do you think they are in such a precarious situation?

Maybe colonialism has something to do with it, hasn’t it?

Thanks a lot. I’ll probably earn less money, but waking up and getting out of bed every morning will be much more meaningful.

It’s planned. I’ll do something actually useful for people, work in medical/social care or maybe go back to farming (what my family has been doing since generations).

Feeding people with something else than marketing bullshit to their brain, feeding them something they can eat.

Yeah. Look at all the benefits of colonization in African countries. Look at the great job we are doing. Giving them money to alienate themselves looking at the shit we produce. Such a great advancement for humanity. Thanks lord for bringing civilization to the savages

Jeez this article is nonsense! The author is invoking social sciences terms but clearly has no idea what they are talking about.

> There is no point in having some people's opinions be more important than others. That is the essence of discrimination.

No, open a dictionary or Wikipedia and see: https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Discrimination

> Discrimination is the process of making unfair or prejudicial distinctions between people based on the groups, classes, or other categories to which they belong or are perceived to belong, such as race, gender, age, religion, or sexual orientation.

Taking the risk to feed the troll by commenting here. This whole embarrassing blog article sounds written by someone who mistakenly conflate many things. If people call you out because you’re acting like an asshole they are not “canceling” you. If they ask you to leave a community you polluted with your toxicity, hate for women, brown and black people, they are not attacking your “free speech”, simply showing you the door.

My god, people really need to grown up, touch some grass, grow a backbone and stop playing the victims, so fragile!

I sadly failed to find the information I needed: are we somehow allowed to use proper custom domains?

Nice project! Sadly the emojis present in my GitHub bio aren’t being rendered. I can’t see them in the image. :)

https://yunohost.org is a much more mature project, with a larger app ecosystem. Give it a try, you won’t be disappointed.

What does FSD even means?? There is no mention of that in the author’s thread. Please stop with acronyms!

Tell HN: Microsoft deliverability issues made my life a living hell

mthld — Tue, 16 Aug 2022 11:58:03 +0000

Hi HN,

I've been hosting full featured email servers for half a dozen organizations, mainly non-profits and healthcare institutions, for a few years. It's used internally & externally by individuals, for their daily work.

I successfully implemented all email best practices, from strong authentication to SPF, DKIM, DMARC & enrolled into all postmaster tools (like Microsoft SNDS, Google Postmaster, etc). Every email is scanned against ClamAV (antivirus) and Rspamd (antispam), also each server has its own dedicated IPv4 and IPv6 addresses.

Since the beginning of this year, Microsoft started to reject emails sent from these servers. It took me almost 3 months between January & March to fix this issue with them (which was a false positive in their systems), and now they are bouncing my client's emails again.

I sincerely don't know what to do, I'm 100% sure no spam is originating from our side. My clients (I don't blame them) are lost and don't understand why their emails aren't delivered. I explained many times that they are being blocked by Microsoft services and that everything is working as expected on our end. Still, even workaround like relaying sending through Sendgrid don't work, their IP addresses are blacklisted from Microsoft as well.

I'm feeling bad about this, even more, helpless with this issue coming back. I've ran emails servers for years and never had issues with any other email service providers (Google, Yahoo, etc).

What do you think should I do? Propose my clients to move to Office365? I believe it's the only way to fix their deliverability issues with Microsoft... In the meantime moral support is greatly appreciated.

You’re welcome! The documentation needs some work, it isn’t par with the latest CryptPad version. It’s entirely possible this information is missing!

TLDR; CryptPad is a 6 years old FOSS project developed by XWiki SAS, a french company who has been doing open-source for 17 years. It aims to replace proprietary, unencrypted services like Google Docs, etc. It runs directly in the browser and the code is licensed under AGPLv3.
