Urgent help for OpenPrinting needed!

As many here know, I am co-founder and lead of OpenPrinting since 2001, known as the print guru for Linux and free software by many. I also got one of the 8 fellows of the Linux Foundation for this.

Up to now I was working at Canonical, hired back in 2006 just to run OpenPrinting and also to maintain printing-related Ubuntu packages.

... 🧵

Please boost.

#OpenPrinting #LinuxFoundation #getfedihired

#OpenPrinting is a fantastic project that has genuinely made the experience of printing on Linux easier; we published a blog post last month about how now it "just works": https://securedrop.org/news/implementing-just-works-printing-in-securedrop-workstation/

Unfortunately, its leader @till was recently laid off and is now looking for other funding.

Please support him and the OpenPrinting project if you're able:
