There is a new short domain name for #PuTTY!

https://putty.software/

At present, this is just a "landing page": a nice short name to remember, which will redirect you to the full PuTTY website at the same longer URL where it's always been.

But unlike putty.org or other third-party landing pages, this one is run by us, the actual PuTTY team, and it doesn't have a weird separate agenda of its own.

I intend to move the main PuTTY site over to that domain in the future, and leave just a redirector at the old location. But first I want to get the word out, so that people know which site to trust.

If anyone is still linking to putty.org, here's a place to link to instead. Please spread the word!

PuTTY

Free software SSH client for Windows and also Unix, including an xterm-style terminal emulator.

Hundreds of thousands of Computers won't be able to upgrade to Windows 11, but that shouldn't make them eWaste.

Kudos to the @kde team for this amazing initiative!

The oldest piece of malware ever discovered is a series of punch cards from the 1950s that, when fed into a specific mainframe, would cause it to play a very annoying polka tune indefinitely ๐Ÿ™ƒ

Remember that there is no single or homogeneous "Open Source community". It is an enormously huge, loosely coupled bunch of humans, each with their own goals, ideas and expectations. The few foundations we have don't cover more than just a small fraction of the Open Source done in the world made by millions of humans and some companies.

Don't expect the foundations to necessarily be on your side or view OSS like you do.

Donald Trump continues to fall in the polls, and so does his agenda. According to CNNโ€™s Harry Enten, 2 months into his second term, Trump is already underwater in public approval. http://thinkbigpicture.substack.com/week-progressive-wins-march-23
