@box464 I think this is also showing a change in how albums are released: with CDs and the previous technologies, an album always had 10-12 tracks, or a specific length. With streaming services, there is more of an incentive to release tracks individually, so they can be advertised independently to reach more people. It is a pretty common pattern: artists nowadays release singles, then an album with all of them, which, depending on the definition of "album" in this chart, can result in 5-6 times more releases.
To draw real conclusions, I think we should look at the number of individual tracks being released per year (Spotify links them together if they are released in different albums)

@tournesol @Theotime812 @dtgeek Same, I've used it for quite a while so I'm used to all the features...

I just tried to install it on my Steam Deck to see how the onboarding and default configuration is, they are kind of pushing the features of Zen, but the onboarding stays pretty simple: import your browser settings from Firefox if you want to, choose your default search engine, then skip the next couple of screens and you're set.
One thing that may be confusing is the default layout. As an added step, you can go to the browser's settings, in the Look and Feel section and set it to Sidebar and Top Toolbar, which puts back the search bar and buttons in a familiar place. If you use Firefox with vertical tabs, this layout or the Collapsed Sidebar are very close to what you can end up with in Firefox.
If you are not importing tabs, it starts with some tabs in the Essentials, some pinned tabs in a folder and a couple of other ones. If you want to simplify it as much as possible, drag the essential tabs down to remove them from the Essentials section (it will disappear when it's empty), close the pinned tabs and delete the folder, and there you go: you just have a browser with vertical tabs and no extra complexity.

@apps According to the README on the Holos Relay Server source code, other servers make an AP request to the Relay Server. So it has to implement the AP S2S API, right?
ActivityPub says nothing about persistence, just that the servers must deliver to the client via the inbox, which is what the Relay does. Regarding data processing, the ActivityPub spec mostly says that servers should validate the content, but it's a SHOULD and not a MUST.

Don't get me wrong, I think the architecture with a lighter server is very nice, but to me it still looks like you just implemented both parts of the AP spec, and are wrongly naming the client as the server.

There is often the analogy of ActivityPub and email, here it's like you implemented POP3, where the emails aren't kept on the mail server after being retrieved by the client, where everyone else uses IMAP and the server keeps all the data. The mail server (in your case the relay server) is still the server part, and the app is still the client.

@apps @user@domain How is it different from having a heavy ActivityPub client using the C2S part of the spec, and a lightweight server that doesn't persist data once it has been read? I don't remember the ActivityPub saying anything about data persistence between client and server.

"The Steam client is now 64-bit on Windows"

Can't wait for the same thing on Linux so I can disable multilib

@bagder Looking at it more positively, even though more people are looking into security vulnerabilities in curl, there is less and less found every year. Good job!

@tauon @tournesol That is up to you. If you want to minimize the time it takes to get back to your desktop after getting out of sleep mode, you can, and it is a valid choice in some security threat models. And if you want the sleep mode to also encrypt your drive and require a password on wake, you also can configure it this way.

@outadoc Ouais, j'ai l'impression qu'avant la vague LLM c'était le focus, utiliser les nouvelles technologies pour améliorer le navigateur en lui-même (genre la traduction locale c'est une des features que j'adore dans Firefox), et maintenant tous leurs discours c'est "oui mais les autres ils deviennent des navigateurs IA, il faut faire pareil quoi"...
