#Compatibility

2025-12-29

Damn, Classicpress has some weird and shortsighted logic when it comes to plugin headers and the compatibility it’s supposed to indicate 😬🤨🙄

Their “requires CP” header just doesn’t work if your plugin isn’t on their repository. It also ignores the Wordpress headers, because reasons.

How can anyone know if plugins work with dumb rules like that?! So much for an open and transparent internet, right? Damn!

An article about how "immortal" MS Word is and other MSFT praise turned up in my feed, so I found the need to reprise (and liberate) my 2013 rant "Compatibility Is Hard: CHARTEST.DOC Is From 1989, Was Not Readable By 2003" nxdomain.no/~peter/compatibili which links to other (probably better) pieces by myself and @cstross

My opinion re: #ActivityPub compliance is that any #FOSS project is free to implement AS/AP in any way they want, with any level of #compatibility.

#Compliance is absolute best-practice, but a project has full choice here. It's all FOSS freedom. No blame should be put towards these projects where they follow their own path.

Highly encouraging compliance is among the duties of the Grassroots standardization process that exists in the ecosystem.

@mirkobrombin Potentially some other tags that could be relevant and give you more reach:

I'm a developer, I get it. You can't maintain #backwards #compatibility for all supported devices forever. But the #APIs for the old feature set should still work, just keep a few server nodes kicking around to service requests from older versions of your app, and if need be write a shunt layer to interface between those nodes and your database/backend where all the data is kept (if you have to make a breaking schema change).

I have been quite enjoying #outerworlds2 😁 there are performance dips on game load but once it loads it seems to run smoothly using #ProtonGE #latest I had to force #gamepad #compatibility as the default #steam #config didn't work. But this works reasonably well using my #8bitdo #pro3 #linux #gaming #proton

🚀👏 Oh, joy! Someone decided to make compatible with relics that nobody uses anymore. Because nothing screams productivity like trying to revive Windows Me with cutting-edge programming! 😂👴

Nintendo launched a website to check for Switch 2 game compatibility: switch-software-compatibility.

Pretty useful if you plan on buying Switch 1 games on the Switch 2. NieR Automata for example does not run on the Switch 2 yet: switch-software-compatibility.

PCSX2 now supports over 99.5% of PS2 games*

*Software mode video backend in Playable and Perfect categories combined. The article doesn’t state this but I’m sure a lot of people would take issue with this headline otherwise.
