This Week in LibreNews

Hi! Long time no see. I'm happy to report that from now on, this newsletter will be back to being delivered weekly, as promised. So, what's new in LibreNews?

Firstly, I published another members-only interview with Micheal Horn! It's one hour long, and we go in-depth on how he makes videos. This is the second interview I have published, with the first one being about VeronicaExplains! I hope to build a good backlog of interviews over time, to discover how different content creators approach video-making.

I wrote an article about AI scrapers DDoSing FOSS infrastructure, and it sort of went viral! It's now the most-read article of the entire website. I was really happy to hear that people liked it!

Just today, I published a comparison between Servo and Ladybird. It talks about the pace of development, budget, and performance. Long story short: Ladybird has overall better financial and web support, but Servo seems to have a significant edge on performances.

Another article is about Asahi Lina, though this was very difficult to write. I talked a lot with Luca about whether and how to address the topic, and I believe I did so in a thoughtful way. Opinions welcome.

This article also received a lot of attention! Some parts of it have been criticized too, which is fair. I have done some further investigation, and I believe the article to still hold up pretty well, though - had I known more from the start - I probably would've phrased a few paragraphs differently.

This week there's no article from Luca, mostly because he was working on other things behind-the-scene, and also he finally got his degree.

Thanks everybody for following along, and see you next week with more exciting news! 😄
