I also added a Projects page (based on the XDG spec's new Projects directory lol, just kidding), to make my other projects easier to access. Not much there currently, just Burner Todo, and my Joplin config, but I might make a CLI version of Burner Todo later on (I'll learn C++ at university, will be a good practice project), and if I manage to switch from GNOME to a tiling WM, I'll also share my configs (although I'm not really a tinkerer type, I just like to set things up how I want and forget it).
https://fosseryweb.codeberg.page/@beta/projects.html
https://fosseryweb-min.codeberg.page/@beta/projects.html
I also did some code refactoring, to unify the code of some page components (header, footer, Related contents section, etc.), for better consistency, readability; and I also shortened the names of some asset directories which were unnecessarily long.

Die unsichtbaren Ketten unserer Geräte: Warum wir eine Werkstatt für digitale Souveränität brauchen!
Mein Computer und mein Smartphone sind mir näher als die meisten Werkzeuge. Sie sind Fenster zur Welt, Archiv meines Lebens, Verlängerung meines Denkens. Und doch, in immer klareren Momenten, spüre ich: Sie gehören mir nicht wirklich. Ich besitze die Hardware, ja – aber die Kontrolle? Die liegt anderswo. Bei Konzernen, deren Geschäftsmodell darin besteht, meine Aufmerksamkeit zu verkaufen, meine Gewohnheiten zu protokollieren und meine Abhängigkeit zu zementieren.

I had the opportunity to tell the founders of the Sovereign Tech Agency (@sovtechfund) that I'm a big fan of their organization. I firmly believe that other countries should have similar initiatives. In fact, the EU should have one too.
Their recent €600k+ grant to Mastodon is a great example of what public investment in open digital infrastructure can look like. It strengthens the Fediverse, a real alternative to X. As I’ve argued in the #LeaveX campaign: we already have a viable social media alternative to X (1) and what we lack is sustained funding and political commitment. (2)
Thus, if more EU countries invested in improving Mastodon, how quickly could it become Europe’s de facto public square?
While most European politicians still prefer X for their official communication, reducing technical barriers could attract a more diverse audience, including the people our representatives want to reach, like journalists and the general public.
By the way, it's interesting, though not surprising, that the Sovereign Tech Agency has almost four times as many followers on Mastodon as on Bluesky. It would be great to see them highlighting posts and profiles of some awesome open-source projects active on the Fediverse. 😉
