RE: androiddev.social/@MishaalRahm

It’s worth repeating. Android is not a viable base for an independent or even just collaborative operating system. Android is Google and only Google’s project.

If you want to see an actually transparent, international, and collaborative system on phones, support @postmarketOS

    ⚠️ Digitale Souveränität in Gefahr?
    US-Behörden können unter bestimmten Umständen auf europäische Cloud-Daten zugreifen – auch bei Microsoft. Fachleute warnen seit Langem vor genau diesem Risiko.
    Umso unverständlicher ist die Ankündigung, Bayerns Verwaltungen umfassend mit Microsoft-Lizenzen auszustatten.
    Angesichts der aktuellen globalen Sicherheitslage ist eine kritische Neubewertung der IT-Strategie dringend erforderlich.
    Statt neuer Abhängigkeiten braucht es jetzt eine Stärkung europäischer Anbieter und echte digitale Souveränität.
    👉 Hoffnung bleibt, dass Bayern diese Entscheidung noch einmal überdenkt.

    Some people in the community seem to have some people upset at the PSF taking money from Anthropic. This baffles me a great deal because one of the biggest issues facing the OSS community in general is that big companies make their money from the hard work of the volunteers who build the OSS. This is a company - yes, a somewhat distasteful one but, IMO, no worse than Amazon, Google, or Meta - giving back to the community. This is what we are asking for.

                                          The EU, as well as every country in the world, should be taking seriously the importance of sovereign systems for communicating and disseminating information.

                                          The ActivityPub protocol is proven and makes many platforms compatible and accessible to each other, allowing for effective information sharing and communication.

                                          The only reason many people do not leave X is that many important services and public figures remain on that platform. Therefore, if countries truly care about digital sovereignty and resilience, they should adopt and promote the use of open source platforms and networks based on the ActivityPub protocol, whether it is Mastodon, Pleroma, Vebinet, or another platform.

                                              It's churning through GitHub Continuous Integration checks (1 of 3 passed so far which is a good sign the other two will complete successfully).

                                              It's up to someone else with commit access to merge it.

                                              p.s. the other day I read your napcop proposal and I dig the acronym. ;)
