Why is the Bluesky logo nearly identical to the FreedomBox logo? (I think the FreedomBox logo is much older)

I hadn't seen this 18 minute talk from FOSDEM this year but it's quite interesting on the quantum, free software, hardware supply chains, sovereignty, and secure MFA topics: https://fosdem.org/2026/schedule/event/ULPHF3-privacy_and_sovereignty_in_a_post_quantum_open_world/
The talk has references to @freedomboxfndn and #Solokeys #freedomBox

#DIday Wer ein #linuxgaming #Spiel sucht, wo man den Server selbst in einer #LanParty für die Familie, oder online für Freunde, betreiben kann, für den ist #Luanti #Minetest vielleicht interessant.

Es ist ein freies Software Spiel ähnlich #minecraft mit allen Rechten zur Änderung und Anpassung des Quelltextes, sowohl des Servers als auch der Clients.

Von Linux Guides gibt es eine schöne Anleitung zum aufsetzen des Servers: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=c35G5sFEYAY

Für einen #raspberrypi Küchenserver mit #Freedombox ist es auch als App verfügbar https://www.freedombox.org/apps/

Wer einen #Yunohost Server betreibt, der kann den Server auch ganz einfach aus dem Katalog installieren: https://apps.yunohost.org/app/minetest

Spieler brauchen eine Client-Software, die gibt es für Windows, MacOS, Linux, BSD und Android: https://www.luanti.org/en/downloads/

Mods gibt es auch unzählig viele für das Spiel: https://content.luanti.org/

After days of experiments, tests and trials, I’ve come to a simple conclusion: a product for everyday users must be functional, stable and reliable above everything else.

For something I’d actually ship, my current choice is FreedomBox or OpenWrt with AdGuard DNS preconfigured. Pi-hole and AdGuard Home feel unnecessary for this use case.

If I had to pick one today, #OpenWrt would probably win.

#OpenWrt #FreedomBox #AdGuard #IoT #Privacy

Just spun up a dedicated IoT gateway on a Raspberry Pi 4, this time running FreedomBox + AdGuard DNS. Works flawlessly 🛡️

FreedomBox has a billion apps worth exploring, but I kept it lean: a simple, useful privacy shield for home IoT. No bloat, just control.

Every smart home needs this layer. 🔒️📡
