Just did a round of #donations to the #FreeOpenSourceSoftware|s I use every day. I wish more of them made it possible to donate directly by #bankTransfer ... But most go via Patreon, Paypal and the like. Handy tip: #OpenCollective lets you make one-time payments via bank transfer, so you don't have to open an account. #FOSS #donation #freeInternet #mastodon #davx5 #lineageos #signalmessenger #fairemail #newpipe #fdroid #organicmaps #wikipedia #OpenStreetMap

Cannot upgrade to Windows 11, or don`t want to have Microsoft spy on you? Move to Linux!

@claushoumann I think this needs a hashtag and to become a tradition: if you use free software and want to express gratitude, donate to at least one FOSS project on 'I Love Free Software Day'.

In 2023, in preparation for the holidays, I designed and soldered about 20 small #Christmas tree 🎄 PCBs to give to my relatives. This year, I cleaned it up and published it as an open-source hardware project: https://github.com/IamPhytan/christmas-tree-pcb.

This project was made with free and #opensource software:

- @FreeCAD for the outline
- @inkscape for the #PCB art
- @kicad :kicad: for the board design
- @platformio_org for programming

For me using #freeopensourcesoftware is not necessarily an all-or-nothing call to action.

Yes. The more you get involved the better.

But it is ultimately to make sure there is always a pluralism of options.

NEVER allow #google #facebook #twitter to have 100% control.
ALWAYS be in #opposition. DO NOT let the count reach 100%

Looks like toys, but not.

@Nickname Digitalisierng light.
anders:
Digitalisierung á la Deutschland

Wahrscheinlich weil die Schnittstellen nicht offen sind. Aber egal die #microsoft-Jünger lachen sich schon ins Fäustchen.

🚘 Die #Digitalisierung fordert auch in der #Autoindustrie neue Wege. Bei der Jahresveranstaltung des Strategiedialog Automobilwirtschaft #SDABW haben Ministerpräsident #Kretschmann & zahlreiche Akteure vereinbart, im Bereich #FreeOpenSourceSoftware stärker zusammenzuarbeiten. 🤝
