Most instances in #fedipact ( fedipact.online ) are not accepting new accounts.
mastodon.social is likely a lost cause and even #fosstodon went for the "wait and see" bandwagon regarding Meta. Dear fediverse, can you recommend me a healthy instance to move to please?
If you ever wanted a visual to explain how binary in works.

@puzzled @keithzg I seem to have gotten by well enough with #Mobian on a #Pinephone as my daily personal mobile for a few months shy of 3 years.

It was...challenging...the first year but software has come a long way.

I too have gotten used to my mobile being just another computer that I can SSH into and transfer files and even use my scanner and printer without some sort of weird tricks or special apps because it is just Debian in My Pocket.

šŸ’” This weekend would be a perfect time to #GiveUpGitHub.

ā˜£ļø #GitHub is the #Twitter of software development, creators of the most enticing proprietary walled garden ever made for #FOSS developers.

Give Up GitHub - Software Freedom Conservancy

The Software Freedom Conservancy provides a non-profit home and services to Free, Libre and Open Source Software (FLOSS) projects.

#Cloudflare used to welcome us #Tor users (and not just!) with captchas. Now it’s a spinner; it gives hope initially, but it’s deceitful: it just keeps spinning.

Among the vast parts of the Web stuck behind Cloudflare is w3.org. Thanks for showing the way!

@CanLehmann thanks for the #nimlang / #owlketttle threading example. I had never done that before, and it helped a lot. https://github.com/can-lehmann/owlkettle/blob/main/examples/misc/threading.nim

For all those who might be interested in such matters, the Software Freedom Conservancy (SFC) has an interesting blog post on the topic of IBM's Red Hat latest business decisions regarding access to the source code of its RHEL #Linux distribution. #GPL

A Comprehensive Analysis of the GPL Issues With the Red Hat Enterprise Linux (RHEL) Business Model

This article was originally published primarily as a response to IBM's Red Hat's change to no longer publish complete, corresponding source (CCS) for RHEL and the prior discontinuation of CentOS Linux (which are related events, as described below). We hope that this will serve as a comprehensive document that discusses the history of Red Hat's RHEL business model, the related source code provisioning, and the GPL compliance issues with RHEL.

It’s very interesting to see who in the fediverse is falling in line behind Silicon Valley and Big Tech and who is not.

And no, we can’t all just get along.

Big Tech is the antithesis of the cooperative and humanitarian values of federation and decentralisation. You can either be an apologist for surveillance capitalists or support the nascent ethical alternatives to their toxic business model that’s detrimental to human rights and democracy.

Pick a side. History will remember your choice.

Brilliant article on free softwares VS open source ā¤µļø
