@davx5app I didn't know that. Another very useful #opensource tool—made in #Europe, just like Linux, #Mastodon,HTTP,HTML,VLC,LibreOffice...

Europe has produced so much good, free software. The tech giants from the US are building their entire empire on it and now want to disempower us and force us into a dangerous dependency.

Thanks to #DAVx5, I can sync my data without #BigTech.

Interesting article about free software from Europe and the role the US plays in it: https://ploum.net/2026-01-22-why-no-european-google.html
