@ekaitz_zarraga@mastodon.social yes I know we discussed this before and I know you are trying in good faith to make #Guix better.
That's why I didn't mention you in my first post of this thread.
Sure #DeVault's attack on #RMS was much more direct and full of lies and mischaracterizations, but the Guix one was even more vile, as backstabbing a man when he's weak is worse than a frontal attack.
Sure, #Stallman hold a lot of bad opinions. As a white american grown up during cold war I'm surprised he doesn't hold many even worse. I even think that he got wrong the fundamental values of #FreeSofware (!!!), so it's not an hero or a saint to me: I'm fully capable of debating with him on his own biggest achievements.
What I cannot accept is backstabbing a weirdo because he is too weird. And just to weaken his rigorously held line on free software.
FreeSoftware should celebrate #weirdness!
#freesofware
Free software for non-developers
why we fall on promoting free software and other interesting topics.

🔥 La fondation #Mozilla en pleine dérive (selon moi) :
➡️ Financement à ~85 % par #Google (pas nouveau)
➡️ Évolution inquiétante de la privacy notice de #Firefox en 2025
➡️ Firefox bientôt dopé à l’#IA, annoncé par le nouveau boss de la fondation
🤷 De + en + difficile de faire de #Firefox une vraie alternative aux navigateurs des #GAFAM.
🚀 Mon combo actuel grâce à 2 forks : #LibreWolf (desktop) + #Fennec (mobile)
🎙️ Et vous ?

Denmark moves toward digital sovereignty using #freesofware and away from #Microsoft. https://www.zdnet.com/article/how-red-hat-just-quietly-radically-transformed-enterprise-server-linux/

I always conclude my bug reports to #opensource projects, or even my first followup message to a bug report filed by others, with a sentence like: "Thanks a lot for maintaining PROJECT, it's amazing!".
It's a little gesture, but it goes a long way.
When you use #freesofware made by others, remember that it is first of all a *gift* that they are giving to all humanity (and you among them), and only second a software product with defects and avenues for improvement.
New Linux-libre releases are here! Versions 6.12.5-gnu, 6.6.66-gnu, 6.1.120-gnu, 5.15.174-gnu, 5.10.231-gnu1, and 5.4.287-gnu1 are now squeaky-clean & freedom-respecting! Together, we're proving software freedom is unstoppable. Let's rally for the FSF's fundraiser to hit $400,000 by Dec 31: https://www.fsf.org/appeal 🌟 Every donation fuels freedom's future! Keep hacking, keep sharing, and keep being free! https://www.fsfla.org/ikiwiki/selibre/linux-libre/ #FreeSofware #SoftwareFreedom #FSF #GNU #Linux
#ghdl (in its #clang variant), a #freesofware #vhdl analyzer, compiler, simulator and synthesizer, is part now of #guixscience channel. It may be used as any other #guix package with a simple
guix install ghdl-clang
This means too that pre-built substitutes are available online.
