@vbe404 I've been actively advocating for FOSS tools since at least 2017 that allow local data aggregation of personal health data. No one seems interested in this topic. It's shocking. Even now, with the push for data sovereignty in the EU, I see almost no talk on this topic. We need tools to help us maintain our health. Society is getting older so its only going to be more necessary. #foss #personalhealth #agingpopulation #datasovereignty #HealthyAging

Some sober reading for a Monday morning:

"Fertility is falling everywhere, in rich countries with low fertility rates and poor countries where it is comparatively high. Two-thirds of the global population lives in countries where fertility is below the replacement rate."
