My talk at #linuxappsummit in Tirana, Albania. You can hear it in my voice how nervous I was trying to pitch an idea of a properly implemented #Ai assistant to some impressive personalities behind the #Gnome and #KDE desktop.

@douginamug @irdi @opensuse @wikimediafoundation @librelabs @FLOSSK @LAS @gnome we've been co-organising #floss, digital pricacy and open knowledge (small and larger) events for years and I've never seen this happening. Istanbul and Tirana are two different cities, with the later being much much smaller, so people into floss know each other. We never got any news other than randomly online. Like not being informed in purpose. Being angry is the least one can do. #las2025 #linuxappsummit.
New fancy @FlatpakApps features in @swick 's #LAS2025 talk! @LAS
