JMP: Why Bidirectional Gateways Matter
A big part of the vision of Sopranica, and Cheogram in particular, is bidirectional gateways.  A bidirectional gateway is one that allows (at a minimum) any user of either protocol to contact any user of the other protocol without creating an account.  This is not possible with all protocols, but works well when both sides are federated.

Take for instance sip.cheogram.com, which is a bidirectional gateway between XMPP and SIP.  Any … ⌘ Read more

What a good feeling when the hours you have invested in optimizing and testing actually bear fruit. In other words, my blog now uses less than 100 MB of memory, even though I have quite a few features enabled. My diary for example needs less than 20 MB. And if you compare that with WordPress, where the database alone needs more than 300 MB… 😄 ⌘ Read more

Why I renamed my blogs
After a bit of consideration and a poll on Fosstodon, which shows a clear result even before it ends, I decided to rename this blog from “jlelse’s Blog – Thoughts, stories and ideas” to “Jan-Lukas Else – Thoughts of an IT expert”. Likewise, my German blog from “einGeek – Mehr als nur Internet und Programmieren” to “Jan-Lukas Else – Gedanken eines IT-Experten”. ⌘ Read more

The Impacts of an Insecure Software Supply Chain
Today, software regularly integrates open-source code from third-party sources into applications. While this practice empowers developers to create more capable software in a shorter time frame, it brings with it the risk of introducing inadequately vetted code.
