Jeder Rechner auf dem Linux statt Windows läuft ist ein guter Rechner.
Er bedeutet ein Stück mehr digitaler Teilhabe unabhängig von großen Technologiekonzernen und losgelöst von willkürlichen Verfallsdaten der Hardware.

Im Rahmen des "Tags der freien Software" am 25. Juni in Gütersloh bieten wir einmal mehr der Gelegenheit, Linux auf dem eigenen Gerät auszuprobieren und dann ggfs. zu installieren.

Um 18:30 Uhr geht es los, alle weiteren Infos gibt es hier

Thank you very much to #LibrePlanet #Greece, ΕΛΛΑΚ, the Greek #GNULinux user group, the #FreeSoftware community of the University of Macedonia, and AUTH for organizing events in Thessaloniki and Athens to celebrate #FSF40! @GFOSS@mastodon.social @hellug libreplanetGR@mastodon.social

Thank you Richard Stallman for your inspiring talk at Politecnico di Milano!

It was my honor to introduce @rms to 300+ attendees who packed the auditorium to hear RMS about digital freedom and unveil GNU Taler 1.0 (@Taler), a payment system ensuring:

Buyer anonymity
Tax transparency
Resistance to surveillance capitalism

Huge thanks to @fedimedia & @poul_polimi for their tireless efforts to bring you to Milan!

The End (of Windows 10) is nigh!

On 14 October, #Microsoft will end support for #Win10.

This will turn hundreds of millions of computers that cannot upgrade to #Win11 into security risks and #eWaste.

Yours may be one of them!

But what if you could make your current one fast and secure again?

Our shop relies on #FOSS for almost everything:

#debian #GNULinux is our operating system.

#inkscape, #gimp, #krita, #imageMagick, #darkTable, #scribus are our tools.

Our website is handwritten HTML/CSS running on an on-prem server with #hugo and #nginx (launching in June).

We contribute to the #eff and #wikicommons.

To the developers, contributors and maintainers, we salute you!

At the #LibreLocal meetup in Zurich, Christian Grothoff and Iván Ávalos presented #GNUtaler, which had just launched in Switzerland a week ago, FSF campaigns manager Miriam Bastian gave an introduction to #freeSoftware, and revamp-it introduced attendees to different #GNULinux distros and raised awareness for the #endof10. @NGI_Taler

Going enterprisey with this week's mug

Am 27. Mai 2025 findet unsere nächste Linux-Install-Party in Bielefeld, Mühlenstraße 5 statt

Auf so gut wie jedem PC ist derzeit das Betriebssystem Microsoft Windows vorinstalliert. Der wachsende Datenhunger von Microsoft sowie das Ende des Supportzeitraumes von Windows 10 in diesem Jahr liefert aber immer mehr gute Gründe, sich nach einer Alternative umzusehen.

Wir wollen in dieser Veranstaltung GNU/Linux als kostenlose Alternative zu Windows vorstellen, für dessen Betrieb schon lange keine Programmier- oder Kommandozeilenkenntnisse mehr vonnöten sind.

Wir bereiten bootbare USB-Sticks vor, auf denen verschiedene Linux-Distributionen zum unverbindlichen Ausprobieren bereitstehen. Wenn euch eine gefällt, könnt ihr sie direkt installieren (dann empfehlen wir, zuhause bereits ein Backup anzufertigen).

Weitere Details findest Du hier - wir freuen uns über eine kurze Mail wenn Du vorbeikommen magst, um den Bedarf besser planen zu können!

Korrektur: Die Hausnummer ist 5! (Danke, @bodems!)

Ho un #thinkpad T490 su cui ho #archlinux .
Mi piace molto il tutto ma spesso resto un po' sconsolato per la qualità dello schermo e dell'audio.
Ci sono PC ben compatibili con #linux che mi consentirebbero di raggiungere una UX simile a quella che ho con il mio #macbook ?

Edit: Parlo oggiamente di #gnulinux , se no Stallman appare alle mie spalle e mi colpisce alla nuca

Bonjour !
Je me suis inscrite dans le dispositif #parrainLinux en tant que #marraineLinux.
Je suis sur #brest
Je peux installer différentes distributions (version de #gnulinux ) #Arch, #Mint, #Debian et #Fedora en fonction des besoins et des attentes..
Il sera possible de tester avant de choisir.
Un accompagnement et une formation sont possibles, de même qu'un travail en petits groupes, qui est même préférable.
Des points spécifiques peuvent être abordés concernant certains problèmes de sécurité.
Vous pouvez consulter mon profil pour en savoir plus sur mes valeurs et mon identité. Je suis tolérante et ouverte, mais il faut qu'il y ait un minimum de feeling.
Bonne journée et n'hésitez pas.

Hii~,

I’m quantenzitrone or short Zitrone, a mostly male #human.

I just moved here from #fosstodon because of some moderation drama there leading to some instances defederating, also because i wanted to switch to an instance hosted in Europe.

I like computers, especially those running #GNUlinux especially #NixOS. I’m currently setting up my #homeserver with NixOS. I maintain a few packages in nixpkgs.

I like #programming, especially in #Rustlang, sometimes when programming in other languages I notice that they are in fact not Rust. Sometimes I complain about it on Fedi

I may meow at you especially if you’re cute and/or meow-at-able

I study computer science at @uniheidelberg@xn–baw-joa.social.

You may meet me in the #RaumZeitLabor or at the #GPN and #ChaosCommunicationCongress. This year I also plan to be on the #MRMCD and maybe #NixCon.

My favourite logic gate is XOR.
