Is It Really Free and Open Source Software (FOSS)?
Protect your software rights by gaining clarity and transparency of Free and Open Source Software (FOSS) by using the project Is It Really FOSS?
https://www.adamsdesk.com/posts/is-it-really-free-open-source-software-project-review/
My original #introduction wasn't really an introduction of me, so here's a true one.
I am a software developer with passion for digital technologies as means for enrichment of people's lives, and strong proponent of privacy rights.
The #OpenSource, and especially the #FreeSoftware, seems to me as the fair and right way, and in alignment with my ideals, because it gives true ownership into the hands of owners and users, for everyone.
Hence, the FOSS is very interesting to me.
📌 Pinned Post
I'm an anarcho-syndicalist non-binary person who uses they/them pronouns, is bisexual, from Bergen, Norway, and whose posts automatically delete after seven days regardless of likes or boosts, because I have autism and say random shit sometimes.
I talk allot about free software, and I use Secureblue, GrapheneOS and Debian as part of my software setup. I also spend a lot of time experimenting with Linux, especially Debian Testing/Sid, GNOME, and KDE.
As an anarcho-syndicalist, I encourage you to check out NSF-IAA, the sole remaining anarcho-syndicalist organization in Norway that has been actively upholding these principles since 1916.
I maintain several pages and resource documents related to left-wing Anarchist reading below.

Desde mi página web https://www.autumn64.xyz se puede acceder a todos mis pasatiempos y actividades que realizo en internet. Recuerden que hosteo desde mi casa y se va la luz a menudo, por lo que no puedo prometer un uptime del 100%. En caso de que la página no sea accesible el mirror está en https://autumn64.codeberg.page
En cuanto a los servicios web está activa la instancia de SearXNG (metabuscador) y de Redlib (frontend alternativo para Reddit). También subí algunos documentos y un libro que me faltaba publicar en el apartado de Artículos y Libros.
¡Muchas gracias por todo el apoyo!
