However you think the internet *should* be — that's how it is.

You say "large hosts" like they are just 'large hosts', and not monopolistic, fascist entities, that suppress, repress, marginalise, and hypnotise.

> (…) and use Linux and Tor?

What is wrong with Linux and Tor? Why did you even join fedi? It sounds like #freedomSoftware is not for you.

@ItsSheVee

Do people who use to #fiatCurrencies, like #USD or #AUD know they've been trolled every single day of their life?

#debtSlavery #modernSlavery #centralBanks #theFed #usury #freedomSoftware #whatIsBitcoin

@doctormo @lightweight @webmink I use the phrases "Freedom Software" or "Free / Libre Open Source Software" or FLOSS. Also when referring to "Free / Libre Open Source Hardware" I use the term FLOSH.

We should mention that 2023 marks I2P's 20th Birthday.

🎉 HAPPY 20th BIRTHDAY I2P! 🥳

Privacy advocates and #freedomSoftware lovers with programming experience can help this historically significant project by grabbing a copy of the source code and contributing to its #security.

Together we can ensure I2P continues another 20 years.

Interested in digital #payments that respect the payers #privacy?

We are pleased to report that #GNUTaler apps are available on #FDroid (version 5.0 of #Android and above) and the #apps were updated this weekend.

If everyone in #GNULinux and #FOSS was an unencumbered #whiteHat, #Microsoft wouldn't have existed beyond 2017, possibly sooner.

It's clear that #blackHats exist in the #freedomSoftware space.

How can we expect blackHats to gain knowledge on whiteHats and to inhibit them? Universities? MSGitHub? #LinkedIn? CloudFlare'd services?

Our thinking is 'all of the above', but the most effective tools hide in plain sight — #MSLinkedIn and #MSGitHub.

Use them at your eventual peril.

Quite surprisingly Dr Vandana Shiva's #activism in SeedFreedom and in small-scale #farming, intersects with the #FreedomSoftware movement, in more ways than might be expected!

Again here's the link to her interview:

@aral
We should make "freedom software" the standard term, so that one doesn't have to constantly specify that the "free" in "free software" stands for "freedom" and does not necessarily imply absence of monetary charge.

Or maybe standardize "libre software"?

Agree that we should decouple "freedom software" from the depoliticizing term "open software", maybe we should ditch the term "FOSS" that deliberately obfuscates their fundamental differences.

#FreedomSoftware #LibreSoftware

She may look like the #JulieAndrews of the #EU, but Ex-defense Secretary #UrsulaVonDerLeyen seems to have the hallmarks of a 'wolf in sheep's clothing'.

We might take her so-called #grassroots green agenda more seriously if she mandated that the EU representatives cannot not use airTravel in any part of their duties.

Such a move would also favour the #freedomSoftware movement in ways that might not seem immediately obvious.

@fsfe@mastodon.social @fsfe@media.fsfe.org

If only the #freedomSoftware defenders could do to CAGEFAM and other #technoFascists, what Russia is doing to #NATO.

Maybe we would be able to push the tidal wave of turd back a tonne.

@wuffel
We are happy to learn that TruthSocial will be respecting #AGPLv3 and will be freeLicense and openSource.

We might cry.

This is a huge leap forward for what it means to use a computer and a network.

Despite past concerns and or misunderstandings (and probably future ones) we would like to thank #MastodonDevs and @Gargron for all the work they've done to date, and all #Fedizens generally.

This is one small step for #Trump — but one giant leap for #freedomSoftware.
@josias

Please remember that when Trump was caught stealing #Fediverse software, the #legacyMedia said he was attacked by hackers.

They made #Trump the f&cking victim!

Please keep this at the forefront of your mind. A sign on the fridge to remind you how great our plight is.

Draw signs with permanent marker on corflute to advertise #Fediverse, #GNULinux, and other #freedomSoftware you love. Attach them to your vehicle whereever you park it.

Time to rise.

At the back of our minds please remember that when #Trump was caught stealing #Fediverse software, the media said he was attacked by hackers and brought down.

Please, please f&cking remember this.

Put a sign on your fridge to remind you of how scared they are of us.

…use permanent marker to suggest #freedomSoftware (#searx, fediverse). You can wear them when out in public or adorn your vehicle in them (hint: get used to visiting different places) (see # reclaimTheOpenWeb)

c) offer people #freeStuff (things you'd place on #gumtree) by accessing your #I2P website,

d) talk about #bitcoin with people who have a head on their shoulders.

Do you have another protest method?

So you are a developer of #freedomSoftware…

Is your current codebase available as a #torrent over #i2p? If not, what are you waiting for?

So Cloudflare (via #4Chan) are coming after us now.

The war on #freedomSoftware and #bitcoin started years ago but they now have amassed enough data to open hunting season.

It seems our #AudacityFork efforts are undermining their plan to hunt the #artists.

We need our artists.

If your #bank goes through Cf, switch. If your local council website does, drop an anonymous message that you will spread flyers outing Cf, framing council as an accomplice.
