Twitter's open source rival BlueSky is now open for all. It is based on the AT Protocol. And It's FOSS is already on this new platform. We got to try new things, right?
Speaking of new things, there is a new Rust-based terminal that is generating quite a buzz in various coding communities on the web. It is called Warp and it brings IDE-styled editor to the terminal.
It is not open source and it is not available to everyone on Linux yet. However, I have got my hands it and soon I'll be checking if it's really worth all the hype. Afterwards, I'll share my experience with you, hopefully next week. If interested, you can check out its other promised features from its website below.
💬 Let's see what else you get in this edition of FOSS Weekly:

💡 Quick handy tip
Did you know that you could check the memory usage of an active tab on the Brave browser by just hovering on one? I think it's a recent feature added to Chromium and it probably works with other Chromium-based browsers as well.
