I have to admit I’m very impressed with wsl2, they have done a damn good job on that. Makes it very easy to develop linux stuff on windows when needed. And removes the need for virtual machine or dualbooting etc. Also they have done a really good job integrating it with vscode.
I tested the yarn desktop client on wsl2 on windows 11, compiled and ran just fine there. Nice to have linux applications with gui on windows.

Been going back and forth on the gui, I will move away from FLTK and go for https://www.gtk.org/ instead.
I’ll spend tomorrow working on that. I need a more refreshing GUI then what I have now.
And also FLTK is a pain to get to work as I need - spend the whole afternoon trying to get it to use images (avatar etc) on my linux machine, and no matter what I’ve tried it refuses. So instead of wasting more time battling fltk I will switch to GTK.

Turns out the problem I had was also there when I build rapidjson from source, but if I moved the include to earlier (rapidjson in my project) - the problem went away, so I suspect it’s the same as in this issue going on.
The cool thing is that the client now works fine on linux without changing anything else then the include order!
So now I’ll do all development there - instead of on windows.

Also - did a quick test on linux, it gave a lot of errors with the rapidjson library, so I have to find a way to work around that. I think I’ll pull the latest, then compile it - and then point to that - instead of installing the rapidjson-dev package. Maybe that’ll work.

Then when all services are running Ill use wireguard to hook it up to my VPS. I think this will be a great setup.

Great, last system update broke something, building from current master I get:
/usr/bin/ld: /lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libm.so.6: unknown type [0x13] section `.relr.dyn'
What the heck!?
And it also appears that I’m not really able to reproduce this unread bug. It only kind of works a single time. And it has something to do with my config. Not sure what it is yet. I also noticed that the <updated> timestamps in the entries somehow shifted between the old and new feed. Da fuq!?
