Thanks @fossandcrafts @mlemweb and @cwebber ! Yay to having just enough prompting to push an update to ye olde website... Look forward to ingesting this after #SeaGL2021 ! Can't wait to see you and everyone else @SeaGL ! #bigandlittleFfree #FLOSS #SpeakerLife #freesoftware #opensource

Looking for someone from the #FLOSS community with TypeScript/JS familiarity who would volunteer a bit of dev time modifying a forked version of Element this weekend for @SeaGL . Please DM or forward this along. Thanks! #bigandlittleFfree #freesoftware #opensource #SeaGL2021

No problem @twotwenty@librem.one I need to get back to other things, but think that talking through these things is really the only way we are going to move forward. I concur with your assessment and hope that the heat can be turned down so that we can figure out what that looks like, together working towards a #bigandlittleFfree world for everyone!

I understand that take @twotwenty@librem.one However, I can confirm quite a few instances of harassment, a number as a first hand witness. Additionally, I do agree with the open letter's goal, the specific language and framing are where I struggle. The free software movement is too important to split in twain over this, but I'm definitely not seeing an easy path forward for the @fsf given the way that this has all taken place... #bigandlittleFfree #bekindinkind #FLOSSdaily #spreadloveandlibre #uninstallman

I have always enjoyed our time together @johns and look forward to enjoying future times. Though likely not while I crash your office because it was cheaper to fly to an event over a week ahead of time... Thanks for all that you've done to support a #bigandlittleFfree world, I eagerly look forward to word of where you direct those efforts next!

Hmm, I finally read through a few more of the longer form responses to the current @fsf controversy. https://www.arp242.net/rms.html by @arp242_martin@twitter.com is the one which aligns most closely to my current thinking. I'm not sure whether or not I'll sign the letter, but I appreciate, agree, and support what it is trying to achieve. #bigandlittleFfree #bekindinkind #FLOSSdaily #spreadloveandlibre

Mind was spinning, so I avoided some other work and put together a preliminary analysis of the petition letters regarding the controversy surrounding the @fsf PDF, data, and code can be found here: https://github.com/altsalt/rms-letter-comparison #bigandlittleFfree #bekindinkind #FLOSSdaily #spreadloveandlibre

@cwebber This is how I feel, but I have absolutely come to that conclusion. It has been a difficult and nuanced journey, which makes it even more of a struggle regarding signing on to the open letter... I am trying to be a more moderate voice in some of these conversations, because the current tactic is clearly splitting the community I hold so dear even further in twain. @fsf I really hope you have a darned good statement about this out soon, for the sake of a #bigandlittleFfree society!

@fsf clearly this response is not enough and I am impatiently awaiting a more thorough one. That said, I do trust the FSF staff, and can speak as a volunteer and speaker, this news was a shock when it broke. I am saddened by the vitriol that our community is currently producing and hope that when the dust settles, we are able to continue addressing the interpersonal issues that allow anyone to think acting this way is okay. #bigandlittleFfree #FLOSS #SpeakerLife #bekindinkind #spreadloveandlibre

Oh look, a last minute addition... I will be speaking @fsf 's virtual #LibrePlanet 2021 this Sunday, March 21st! Join the discussion of funding free software's future at 11:45a PT and get your gratis registration via https://u.fsf.org/lp21-sp #bigandlittleFfree #FLOSS #SpeakerLife
