… my newsletters… …

Thanks. I'm curious, are some of those news items aggregated from another area in which you post?

framapiaf.org, maybe?

[CiotBSD]

• Almost all of them come from the RSS feeds of the authors' websites, managed on Mozilla Thunderbird!
  See:
  
  Little by little, I'm adding to the list of sites I follow

• some through social media platforms such as Framapiaf.org, BSD.Network, and Journal du Hacker

• occasionally from certain news sites, especially in French, my native language

Basically, that's the idea behind my daily news roundup; I enjoy doing it because I end up reading a lot of things—some useful, some interesting, and others not so much, but which might interest others.

The guiding principle is the sharing of information; the main focus, for the most part, is on FLOSS—whether I like the article or not, understand it or not, etc.

In any case, each language version is truly specific to the lang; in rare cases, we can find the same articles translated…

Voila.

Thanks. The reason I asked was, #hashtags are visible but not clickable.

Indeed!
It's more like “semantic” help… not really usefull (?!)
Right now, I'm wondering whether I should get rid of them,… in the context of the SGG, what is their real purpose?

Some unhappy responses.

@CiotBSD

A nit, at https://huc.fr.eu.org/en/news/week-27-2026/#it20260629:

• https://dan.langille.org/2026/06/29/running-pkgbasify-on-freebsd-15-1/ redirects to https://dan.langille.org/2026/06/29/running-pkgbasify-on-freebsd-15-0/ and it was on 15.0 (not 15.1).

The SLOP AI heading is a turn-off, for me.

[CiotBSD]

@grahamperrin Ty!

I rectify for the Dan Languille link. <= done!

I understand, but what else can we use that everyone agrees on?

[grahamperrin]

@CiotBSD "AI"

OK, let's Go! <= done
