Yesterday, we had our very first meeting of the autumn 2025 semester!! 🎉🎉
Because our president (me) is still getting used to the new academic schedule, we didn't make a promotional post about it. But, what we CAN do is break in the new scholastic year with something else: a Meet-The-Execs thread!
Scroll on through to get to know the executive board for this year's iteration of the Open Source Club!

This 2019 Mastodon feature request suggests supporting post transfer when migrating to a different instance. If you'd like such a feature (I sure do) consider thumbing-up or reacting to the issue.

Thanks @tokyo_0 for the reminder.
Open Source Club had another great meeting today! One of our members (likely soon-to-be Executive Officer... 👀) went over some great ideas for how OSC can achieve MORE student engagement next year, as well as some great fundraising ideas! Then, we had a fruitful conversation about desktop/consumer Linux, and ways we can improve messaging and reduce jargon to introduce more people to the world of free and sovereign software.
Meeting slides can be found in the link in our bio. 😎
