In the version of Vim that I am using (Vim 8.1), the "advertisement" appears to be randomly chosen between "Help poor children in Uganda!" and "Sponsor Vim development!".
Pharo is licensed under MIT hence most of my work needs to be licensed also under MIT.
I believe that this is not true. I thought that it is not mandatory for your work to be licensed under the MIT license in this case. Can anyone confirm this?
Linux phones
Will we be able to use messaging apps such as WhatsApp and Signal on Linux phones?
Looking forward to greater support for "driverless printing" in more Linux distributions, especially via IPP-over-USB. This would allow most consumer-level printers to be used directly from Linux without needing proprietary drivers and/or explicit Linux support from the printer vendor. This solves one of the common pain points when using desktop Linux at home.
For rapid development of web applications, you should probably use a web framework in a high level language. Popular examples of such web frameworks: Django (language: Python) and Ruby on Rails (language: Ruby). These frameworks have huge communities behind them, lots of documentation, and lots of educational resources available (such as books).
Your Linux distribution probably packages the SDK already, just install and use it.
The .NET SDK is still not in the Debian repositories.
I don’t get why big companys are afraid of open source software
Maybe they think that their business would not be as profitable when using open source business models.
I would be willing to pay to have the license to modify my own software even if I couldn’t redistribute it afterwards.
That's source-available software. An example license that you would probably like: The GitLab Enterprise Edition (EE) license.
it’s kinda lacking in features and unideal for the same reason I don’t like safari
I hope they implement support for WebExtensions soon. That would probably give GNOME Web a huge boost in features.
Why is Ecosia on the list?

Doesn't look privacy-respecting.
Another alternative: GNOME Web (a.k.a. Epiphany), which is based on the WebKit browser engine.
