The problem with our dependency on Big Tech is evident in Palantir's NHS contract.
Signing up to a 'subscription service' for one company's exclusive software leaves us with nothing when we end the contract.
With open source, we don't have to start again with a new platform when changing vendors.

Handing out contracts to Big Tech platforms is a rip off.
If we don't like the over-charging, tax-dodging and exporting profits overseas, we face the nightmare of vendor lock-in.
They own the software, so love it or lose it.
We call for UK Digital Sovereignty to turn the tide.

I thought I might just ask; fedi's as good a place to ask as any other.
Are there grants for #freesoftware and #opensource *activism* -- not software projects -- and open to individuals not in the US or the EU?
I have big dreams of starting a project I really intended to be the go-to place for 11-14 year olds who're interested in free software activism, but I need financial resources to make it happen.
My budget, at most, is 55,000 EUR p.a., maybe a little more for the first year.

And #Git has AI slop in it along with AI stuff in PRs and stuff too and an AGENTS.md. It's confusing as some don't seem to like it but slop is still getting past?

I don't care if AI is used for code or for localisation purposes, it shouldn't be used at all for ethical reasons.
I'd also like to say something controversial here but with this, I'd say that the very foundations of #OpenSource are actively being destroyed. If something like Git is now somewhat accepting of AI slop, then I'd say we're all fucked and we need to actively start trying to contribute to other projects or even starting new projects.
Maybe I should probably go actually start my #VCS idea I had.

Automatic thread splitting (v1.2.0)
Long posts are now split into thread segments live in the composer — at paragraph, sentence, or word boundaries. Full preview included.
Notifications area (v1.2.0)
A dedicated sidebar section for notifications. Supported Fediverse accounts can now load their notifications directly inside FediSuite — no more jumping back to each individual instance.
Full Vernissage support (v1.2.2)
Vernissage is now a first-class platform in FediSuite: account connection, composer rules, photo uploads, publishing, historical import, post-stat refresh, and notifications — all covered. OAuth2 with a dedicated dynamic client registration flow.
Plus a range of bug fixes around thread management, the edit modal, Misskey visibility handling, and notification edge cases.

Cet événement fait suite aux problématiques de financement du programme CVE, opéré par MITRE Corporation et soutenu par le gouvernement américain. L’initiative illustre la manière dont l’UE affirme son influence normative tout en atténuant sa dépendance aux infrastructures non européennes. Cette dimension prend toute son importance à l’heure du retour de la compétition entre grandes puissances."

hi peeps <3 Running a small fundraiser to keep altbot and fuzzies.wtf alive and healthy!
my server storage hit 100% full and took down basically everything. i got it fixed, but it's clear i need more drives before it happens again.
altbot is free, open source, and runs 24/7 generating alt text for anyone on the fediverse who needs it. it's real accessibility infrastructure and i want to keep free.
goal is $500 for a set of used (and tested for good health) enterprise drives off ebay. every little bit helps get there!

Warum müssen eigentlich alle ständig über Zoom oder Teams ihre Videokonferenz führen? Was ist denn mit Jitsi? Taugt das nicht für mehr als "4 Teilnehmer"? Oder kennt das nur keiner? BigBlueButton ist ja auch offen, aber sicherlich nicht für jeden erreichbar. Da bedarf es meines Wissens immer einen Zugang zu den Servern. Und die sind, was ich so mitbekomme, wohl eher im Umfeld von Unis anzufinden. Aber bei Jitsi gibt es doch verschiedene freie Instanzen. Die könnte man doch nutzen ... 🤔

Google Drive, Dropbox, and OneDrive are convenient services that millions use daily. But behind that convenience lies a cost that few acknowledge: your files are stored on servers owned by corporations that have full access to your data. They analyze your documents, your photos, your spreadsheets—for product improvement, targeted advertising, or simply because they can.
If you store sensitive information—business correspondence, medical records, legal documents, financial statements—the risk is even greater. Google can freeze your account at any moment, and with it, access to everything stored there. This has already happened to thousands of users worldwide.
Nextcloud is the answer. It is open-source software for building your own cloud server on your own hardware. Your files on your hardware, under your control, without any third parties.
Nextcloud has evolved far beyond simple file storage:
File sync across Windows, macOS, Linux, iOS, and Android with versioning and sharing
Online document editing through Collabora or OnlyOffice
Calendar and contacts via CalDAV/CardDAV
Video conferencing and chat
Photo backup with face and object recognition
Email client, notes, kanban boards, forms, and hundreds more apps through the app store
Hardware requirements are surprisingly modest. For 1-5 users, a Raspberry Pi 4 with 4GB RAM and an SSD works perfectly. An old laptop from 2015 or later is another excellent option. A VPS for a few dollars per month is ideal for those who prefer not to keep hardware at home.
Installation via Docker Compose or Nextcloud AIO takes 15-30 minutes. Desktop and mobile clients provide automatic sync like Dropbox. Calendar and contacts sync without Google or Apple.
Self-hosted means self-responsibility: strong passwords, two-factor authentication, SSL certificates, regular updates, backups, and firewall configuration. But the reward is priceless: certainty that your data is truly yours.
Nextcloud in 2026 is mature, stable, and feature-rich. It does not fall short of Google Drive in functionality. In privacy and control, it surpasses it by orders of magnitude.
Start with Nextcloud AIO on an inexpensive VPS. In one or two hours, you will have a fully functional cloud storage system open only to you. This is one of the most important steps toward digital independence.

Time for this week's #Linux and #OpenSource News video, which includes Germany's plan to move to Open Source software, more Age Verification crap piling up, as well as the Kernel 7.0 and its new policy to accept A.I. contributions, and a lot more !
Ich bin auf #Jobsuche

The #AppImage "packaging" approach being embraced by many projects is just another poor approach. It does not really solve what it is expected to should solve: Dependency issues.
More and more .AppImage downloads now produce results like these:
/tmp/.mount_tumpa-Z5HMuu/usr/python/bin/python3: error while loading shared libraries: libcrypt.so.1: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory
/tmp/.mount_activiXYBUA0/aw-qt: symbol lookup error: /tmp/.mount_activiXYBUA0/libQt6WaylandClient.so.6: undefined symbol: wl_proxy_marshal_flags
I dunno if it is due to incorrect packaging or a design artefact with AppImage.
I believe #flatpak is the only true sane way to go. At least if you don't want to frustrate users.
The UK is in a toxic relationship.
Hooking up our digital infrastructure to the proprietary systems of a few tech companies based abroad has left us over-charged and vulnerable to external threats.
ORG calls on the government to put in place a UK Digital Sovereignty strategy based on open source.

The French government makes a start on moving to the Linux Desktop, the EU has a terrible but open source age verification app, some clarity on one of the exciting office suite dramas, the media swallows Anthropic’s nonsense about their new magically powerful model, a quick KDE Korner, and more.
#Mozilla takes on enterprise #AI providers with #Thunderbolt
Thunderbolt is for businesses that want #opensource, #selfhosted alternative to #MicrosoftCopilot, #ChatGPT, #Claude, and lock-in & security concerns
"The problem we are solving today is one of sovereignty & control," MZLA Ryan Sipes said. "Do you really want to build your AI workflows on top of a proprietary service from OpenAI or Anthropic … having all your internal company data flowing through their systems?"

Routing security matters to all of us (even those of us who seldom give the subject any thought), and the rpki-client project announced the release of a new version of their Resource Public Key Infrastructure (RPKI) client, with a number of improvements.
The announcement reads
Date: 2026-04-14 23:20:42
rpki-client 9.8 has just been released and will be available in the rpki-client directory of any OpenBSD mirror soon.
It is recommended
that all users upgrade to this version for improved reliability.
rpki-client is a FREE, easy-to-use implementation of the Resource
Public Key Infrastructure (RPKI) for Relying Parties to facilitate
validation of BGP announcements. The program queries the global RPKI
repository system and validates untrusted network inputs. The program
outputs validated ROA payloads, BGPsec Router keys, and ASPA payloads
in configuration formats suitable for OpenBGPD and BIRD, and supports
emitting CSV and JSON for consumption by other routing stacks.
See RFC 6480 and RFC 6811 for a description of how RPKI and BGP Prefix
Origin Validation help secure the global Internet routing system.
rpki-client was primarily developed by Kristaps Dzonsons, Claudio Jeker,
Job Snijders, Theo Buehler, Theo de Raadt, and Sebastian Benoit as part
of the OpenBSD Project.
This release includes the following changes to the previous release:

Dear hackers,
I am a Free Software instructor and systems programmer who loves internet techology, and dedicated to advancing open-source innovation through my own initiatives and community leadership. My work is not a job application—it is my profession and mission. I have taken on the role of Project Lead Developer and Systems Programmer within my own company, where I design, build, and teach Free Software systems that empower individuals and organizations.
At QB Networks, I lead a developer team focused on replacing proprietary solutions with Free Software, primarily through GNU Emacs and modular programming practices. My leadership extends to projects in artificial intelligence research, malware analysis, and game development. As Project Lead Developer of Procyberian Systems Distribution (PSD GNU/Linux, GNU/Hurd , GNU/BSDs especially FreeBSD, OpenBSD, NetBSD systems), I oversee cross-platform application development, kernel engineering, and community programming education. These responsibilities reflect my commitment to building sustainable, transparent, and collaborative ecosystems.
Beyond technical leadership, I contribute to community-driven initiatives such as the Linux® Türkiye Community, where I serve as Documentation Team Lead and also as Translation Team Lead. In this capacity, I coordinated Turkish localization efforts and took responsibility as reviewer for the DevOps LPI translation project, ensuring accuracy and accessibility for learners and professionals. These roles reinforced my dedication to empowering communities through education, translation, and Free Software advocacy.
My background in economics complements my technical expertise, allowing me to approach projects with both analytical and strategic perspectives. I am passionate about advancing the Free Software Movement and believe that my skills in systems programming, kernel engineering, and AI development are essential to building a freer, more secure digital future.
This is the work I have chosen, and it is the work I continue to lead. I welcome collaboration with those who share the vision of empowering communities through Free Software.
Best regards,
Mert Gör

AerynOS branding update
The AerynOS team has transitioned to a new logo and brand colour palette.
The new logo was created with community input and we feel it looks much better and comes with a light theme variation.
For the colors:
Green: Links to nature like our tooling (moss, boulder, summit, avalanche etc)
Orange: Links to Rust which is our primary programming language
Branding assets repo: https://github.com/AerynOS/brand/
This has been a long running project in the background with the original concept for this design suggested over a year ago when we originally rebranded to AerynOS. The old logo was used as a placeholder and we hadn't intended to run with it so long.
We hope you like the new branding and this will now allow us to continue working on our new website redesign as our next background workstream.

Stadt Zürich will mehr Open Source Software in die Schulen bringen
Parlament und Regierung stärken digitale Souveränität in der Bildung
Im März 2026 reichte eine Gruppe von Gemeinderäten das Postulat ein, die Nutzung von Open Source Software an städtischen Schulen in Zürich zu fördern. Bereits im April 2026 ist nun die Entscheidung durch die Politik gefallen, Schülerinnen und Schüler frühzeitig mit alternativen Softwarelösungen vertraut zu machen und die digitale Souveränität zu stärken.
@bjoern Das ist leider ein Problem, das #OpenSource gerne hat. Bedienoberflächen werden nicht modernisiert und gehen nicht mit der Zeit. Sehr schade, weil das irgendwann dann Nutzer eben doch zu kommerzieller ClosedSource Software zwingt.

Die letzten Wochen hat mich FreeCad echt in den Wahnsinn getrieben (ja noch mehr als sonst). Oft so weit das ich das was ich machen wollte einfach mit anderen Tools erledigt habe.
Wer kommt bitte darauf so fundamentale Dinge in der Bedienung wie im Video erklärt abzuändern und das dann zu default zu machen?
Das führt dann doch nur dazu das Leute die nicht täglich mit dem Tool arbeiten und ständig in den dementsprechenden Foren etc. abhängen, das Tool einfach in die Tonne kloppen.
Konsistenz in der Bedienung ist nunmal wichtig!

Shipped two releases of ansible-jailexec today. An Ansible connection plugin that runs tasks inside FreeBSD jails via jexec over SSH, without needing direct SSH into the jail.
v1.1.0: ground-up refactor. Now subclasses the built-in ssh plugin and merges its options at import time, so ControlPersist, jump hosts, private keys, password_mechanism. About a quarter of the old code.
v1.2.0: adds ansible_jail_root to override the jls probe for nested / VNET jail setups.

Working on an #opensource project can be strange sometimes.
Personally, the strangest is seen when people want something changed.
Some peeps simply ask. (Yes, do this one)
Some get extremely angry that it isn't already like they want and demand it be changed.
Some people try to pay for the change.
Some try to guilt you to make the change by saying other software is sooo much better because it does x, y, z.
Some will try to guilt you by saying this change is the one and only thing keeping them on other software, and if you make the change they'll switch.
Some ask on #reddit, but since I'm not on there, it never reaches me. They then get mad it never happens 😵
It's truly a study in people's character.

Windows raus, Linux rein: Frankreich macht Ernst
Frankreich hat Deutschland mindestens diesen Aspekt voraus: Es hat seit 2019 ein eigenes interministerielles Direktorat für die Digitalisierung mit dem Kürzel DINUM. Hier werden sämtliche Aufgaben der Digitalisierung in Behörden gebündelt. Der wichtigste Auftrag, an dem DINUM arbeitet, ist das strategische Vorantreiben der digitalen Souveränität in Frankreich. Von Anfang an wird daran gearbeitet, sämtliche Behörden-Kommunikation über das sichere Matrix-Protokoll und eigene Server abzuwickeln (so wie es bei uns beispielsweise die Bundeswehr macht).

Die App geht einen spannenden Weg: peer-to-peer Datei-Sync statt klassischer Cloud, dazu offline-first und Ende-zu-Ende verschlüsselt.
