Just a reminder #OpenOffice still exists! openoffice.apache.org/blog/ann… I personally still prefer it over #LibreOffice. I'm all for less churn, more stability, and smaller learning curves. I still use both, though, as the improvements to LibreOffice #Draw, particularly the ability to open #Microsoft #Visio files is useful for me. #Apache #FreeSoftware #GNU #Linux (and #windows & #MacOS too if you must)

I've never played #Minecraft - Is this #Federated software? Is it #FreeSoftware? If so, how can Microsoft control what's happening on someone's private server? Even if such code existed in a #FreeSoftware application, I would have thought there'd be a fork that eliminates that external control. It's time for that now.

But if #Minecraft isn't #FreeSoftware aka Free/Libre Open Source Software, then I really have no sympathies for people running or using it...

"More generally, I believe that #opensource development should return to its roots as a #freesoftware movement guided by moral principles. Doing so would help the open source community set better boundaries, which would in turn improve software quality, funding, and working conditions. Without a moral center to give developers a spine, they’ll continue to race to the bottom to please corporate interests."

Awesome opportunity for younger hackers to grab some $/£/€ and a trip to Brussels (perhaps building on Matrix would be a good bet? ;)

Heute ist I <3 FreeSoftware Day https://ilovefs.org, und deshalb erst einmal meinen herzlichsten Dank an all die vielen netten Menschen die in ihrer Freizeit kleine und große Dinge an #FreeSoftware machen. Danke an all die fleißigen Menschen die Übersetzungen anfertigen, Dokumentationen schreiben in Foren und Mailinglisten helfen Probleme zu lösen. Ohne euch wäre diese schöne #FLOSS Bubble nicht möglich. Danke dafür!1!! <3 <3 <3 <3 <3

https://ilovefs.org

Insbesondere sind mir im vergangenen Jahr ganz viele kleine und große Werkzeuge ans Herz gewachsen ohne die es für mich sehr viel schwerer wäre... und ich vergesse wahrscheinlich weit mehr als die Hälft
- khal, khard, vdirsync, radicale, nextcloud, seafile, dokuwiki um Kalender, Kontakte und Dateien in der eigenen Cloud verwalten.
- Jitsi, BigBlueButton, NextCloud Talk, mumble, XMPP + Dino & conversation, Matrix + Element, IRC und XChat, Sylpheed, Friendica und den Rest des Fediverses um mit Menschen zu kommunizieren, manchmal wird es etwas viel, aber lieber etwas zu viel als gar nicht.
- ASCIIDoctor, LaTeX, pandoc (manche Leute mögen die PDFs nicht die beim ASCIIDoctor raus kommen, sondern wollen lieber docx haben), vim, geany, git, fossil, wkhtmltopdf, pdfgrep, evince ... und noch ganz viele andere für diesen Office Krams, vergessen wir nicht gimp und xsane zum einscannen und bearbeiten einiger Dinge.
- bash, fish, ssh, mc und all the anderen Tools für den Alltag auf der CLI.
- nitter, invideous, OpenStreetMap und so für die _alternativen_ Dienste zu den etablierten Platzhirschen.
- music123, mpv, libreelec, kodi und den youtube-dl um für Unterhaltung drum herum zu sorgen.
- Und natürlich nicht zu vergessen firefox, lxqt für das grafische Interface zum Desktop und dieser ominösen Wolke namens Internet.
Danke! Insbesondere an jene, deren Projekte ich jetzt nicht aufgeführt habe, die aber die Projekte die ich da benutze überhaupt erst möglich machen weil sie Funktionalitäten zur Verfügung stellen die ansonsten einfach fehlen ;-)

So und jetzt geh ich erstmal in den Park um ein bisschen frische Luft zu tanken.
