As I understand it, Signal falls back to a persistent websocket when Play services are not available. FWIW.

I agree that working around a reliance on FCM by default would be a position that better aligns with the expectations from the freedom & privacy set, though.

Unsure about details, but it must at least not require Google Play attestation because Graphene supports it now

I think flip flops would perhaps be a mistake, but very close: huaraches, or strappy running sandals, are demonstrably applicable to distance running.

And I'm glad to see such a simple approach to making it usable. Not a fork creating whole new problems to worry about, just reconfiguring the UI and now Bob's your uncle.

Now if GIMP would just stop rewriting the file on each run, making it difficult to keep in revision control....

Bonus, xclip can be directed provide the rich text directly to the clipboard (op this might offer you a solution that is usable as text by your recipients):

`cat something.md | pandoc -f gfm -t html | xclip -selection clipboard -t text/html`

other output type targets also available, check xclip docs

my small experience with Wayland suggested this sort of thing might be more difficult there, but dunno

FWIW, seeing Qubes on HN some weeks ago got me to try it out, and it's been my daily driver since. Good timing since I had holiday vacation to spend time with it before going back to $JOB on the machine.

PS Qubes is Linux. The base domain hypervisor is Fedora-based, and while it is possible to run Windows in a "Qube," the docs and tooling clearly concentrate upon Linux (Fedora and Debian) as the primary use case.

I have in the past run markdown through an exporter that base64-encoded the images into the document before sharing with someone

solves this one issue at least

This might be minor, but an error seems to be made repeatedly in this article: the machine was not built at "Princeton’s Institute for Advanced Studies," but rather at "The Institute for Advanced Study" which is located in Princeton, NJ but completely independent from Princeton University.

I know someone who recently visited an allergist to investigate a similar response to beer, and testing suggested his issue was sulfites which are a common beer additive
