@Suiseiseki do not worry, I am aware that #BSD licenses are not #copyleft and they are not #persistent, allowing #proprietary forks.

Kann man machen, finde ich sogar gut. Dann aber bitte wie bei Software: public money, public art – also freie Nutzung unter freier Lizenz!

Der Meinung bin ich übrigens auch bei durch Subventionen, Abgaben oder Steuern finanzierten Medien.

Dauerhaftes Grundeinkommen: Irland zahlt Künstlerinnen und Künstlern 325 Euro pro Woche

Soll ein Staat Kunstschaffenden das Leben finanzieren? Irland hat sich nach drei Testjahren dafür entschieden: Ein Grundeinkommen für 2000 Kreative wird verstetigt, der Kulturminister rühmt sich einer Pioniertat.

I realize this just means I'm sad @richardfontana showed up for #FOSDEM2026 for, like, only 3-4 hours (& also that I secretly miss carbohydrates since my #diabetes diagnosis), but I dreamed last night that Richard & I went on some sort of potato chip (crisps) tasting tour & I discovered that despite not being from the mid-atlantic region like me, Richard loves Old Bay seasoning. Well, at least in my own mind he does.
Richard & I literally got 1.5min to discuss #copyleft-next at #FOSDEM.

#Minix è #OpenSource.

Il che è un po' parte del problema, perché il kernel e quasi tutto lo userspace (portato da #NetBSD) è sotto licenze permissive che non richiedono reciprocità.

Urge andare un po' oltre la retorica dell'open source che, con buona pace di #Stallman, è nato per permettere lo sfuttamento gratuito del lavoro altamente specializzato di volontari.

La storia di Minix dimostra che se l'europa si limitasse a soddisfare la definizione di open source dell'#OSI, fornirebbe semplicemente lavoro gratuito ai concorrenti stranieri.

Per evitare la "Tragedy of the (unprotected) commons" bisogna riscoprire il lavoro di Elinor Ostrom ed creare dei beni comuni protetti, in cui la totale reciprocità sia condizione al loro utilizzo.

Un #copyleft più forte della #AGPL per intenderci.

Un cambio di rotta (e retorica) ancora tabù, nonostante decenni di #SaaSS, ancor prima dei #LLM e del #vibecoding, ma sempre più urgente.

Tout le temps, partout, quel que soit le domaine, je n'entends parler que d'intelligence artificielle. La musique n'échappe évidemment pas au phénomène. Je suis tombé deux fois, récemment, sur une...

You know, I almost forgot! Not only do we do general #freesoftware advocacy, #copyleft enforcement, fiscal sponsorships and internships, we also run an annual conference #FOSSY, where people come together to talk about #softwarefreedom! This year will be in Vancouver, Canada August 6-9!

https://2026.fossy.ca/

Every penny you donate to @conservancy goes so far. We're the scrappiest org!

Please help us over our last hurdle, we've got less than $3k to raise today! We can do this, right?

OK Team Fedi, we've now just got $2,797 left to raise in this year's Software Freedom Conservancy fundraiser!!

If you care about our awesome member projects, about helping newcomers get their start in #FOSS, or standing up for the #GPL and #copyleft, now is the time!

https://sfconservancy.org/sustainer/

Let's go for #softwarefreedom!!!

Support Conservancy!

Software freedom is critical to many of today’s most pressing social issues, but it’s only effective when FOSS is for everyone. Support Conservancy today to help make that happen!

Did you see that @conservancy submitted comments to the European Commission in response to their call for evidence on digital ecosystems? We encouraged the Commission to continue to work globally, and also to consider prioritizing #copyleft for the long term benefit of digital sovereignty!

Because of your support, we're able to advocate and educate for #softwareFreedom

There's only $6512 left in our match challenge that we have to raise today! Please help us get there!
