We tracked down a sneaky issue where Android’s WebView loadUrl would choke on large strings (looking at you, base64 tiles 👀 ).

This fix is now live in Collabora Office 25.04.2 for Android — grab it from the app store and enjoy documents that load like a dream.

A friend is building an app to help immigrants detained by ICE.

It's a web app currently, but is intended to be a mobile app.

Anyone have experience building and deploying mobile apps and interested in volunteering time to help a new app with a good cause?

Feel free to share with others or boost for reach.

Going to be interviewed by the #EU next week as part of their review of #mobile App Stores from #Google, #Apple and others.

If you're an #androiddev or #iosdev and want your opinion to be heard then fill out the survey at ec.europa.eu/eusurvey/runner/c.

If you're a user of their #appstore and have opinions to share there's a user-focused survey at ec.europa.eu/eusurvey/runner/b.

Do you use lists?

Today's #Pachli Current release improves their usability by remembering your reading position in the list, similarly to how it behaves on the Home and Notifications timelines.

Lists can be a great way to move content from some people you follow out of your home timeline and into a dedicated space, and of course, each list can be added to its own tab.

Microsoft prý píše již 30% kódu pomocí AI. A není to málo? Kdo ví, ale proč to nezkusit. 🙂
Tak jsem to zkusil. 😁
"Vytvořil" jsem aplikaci, jejíž kód je ze 100% generovaný AI. Nenapsal jsem jediný řádek kódu. Úmyslně jsem zvolil jazyk, ve kterém jsem nikdy nic nedělal, abych měl co nejmenší nutkání ručních zásahů.
Celý kód je výsledek AI. 👍 Dokonce i jakákoli změna textu byla zadána požadavkem pro AI a jako výsledek jsem vždy chtěl celý soubor, nikoli jen část, která se změnila.
A dojmy? Na začátku to šlo dobře, jak projekt nabíral na složitosti, přicházely problémy. AI měnila části kódu, které měla zachovat nebo je zahazovala úplně. Často bylo nutné upozorňovat na zcela samozřejmé, ale zásadní opatření atd., takže nějaké zkušenosti z vývoje nebo návrhu aplikací byly potřeba.
Cílem nebylo vytvořit nějakou sofistikovanou aplikaci. Prostě jen test.
Pokud máte zájem, je k dispozici na Google Play. Časem možná zdrojáky uvolním, ale zatím zde: play.google.com/store/apps/det

Hello everyone! I took a break from Mastodon for a bit but want to get back to using it because I like this place, so I figure now's the perfect time for a new #introduction

I'm nfoert (he/him), and I primarily do fullstack #webdev. I've also been experimenting with other things like #gamedev and #androiddev more recently.

I use #linux and do #3dprinting, and I care about and make #opensource software. I also do some #selfhosting and play games sometimes.

Moving instances is probably a good time for a re- #introduction

Hi, I'm rubenwardy! I'm a software engineer and open source maintainer. I'm a core dev for @Luanti, I made ContentDB and represent #Luanti at conferences

I'm interested in a wide range of areas, including #GameDev, UI/UX, #electronics, #makers, #Linux, #AndroidDev, and #IndieWeb

I'm a prolific creator, I have way too many side projects on the go at a time. I post about things I'm working on here and on my website

I've been looking for Android Dev Phone 1 OS images for quite a while, but most (if not all) of them appear to be lost to time.

See: web.archive.org/web/2011022112

The only files I could find were the System and Recovery image files for Android 1.6. All earlier ones I failed to find.

Does anyone have these files, or know where I could find them?
