For the last decade, the #EU has been funding #Mastodon #KDE #Phosh #Nextcloud #OnlyOffice #PixelFed, #Libreoffice, #CryptPad, #Kdenlive, #Lemmy and many other Open Source projects you know and love through its #NextGenerationInternet programme.

But now that programme is ending and they are thinking about its successor.

They want to hear from you on what it should look like: Share your feedback to make sure the Commission keep funding amazing Open Source projects!

@policy cool, I didn't know that the EU did that!
@policy - wow, what a list. Happens to match exactly what I've been migrating to, independently and individually, slowly but steadily, for the last decade. Keep up the good work!
@policy left them a giant piece of my mind, thank you for promoting this.
@policy In these times of need of digital sovereignty, they need to tenfold the budget of the program, to make a dent against Big Tech.
@policy @PrivateCoffee do we want to give feedback?
@NE555 @policy Oh, certainly. We'll have a document ready by tomorrow evening, most likely. /kumi
@NE555 @policy (If you want to get involved, you know where to find us. :P) /kumi
