I enjoyed this panel about Linux apps and ecosystems with folks from GNOME, KDE, elementary, Snap, and Flatpak all on one stage. We’re better when we work together where we overlap, even if we have different visions and end products. #LAS2019 #LinuxAppSummit

"This is why the following will apply to all (public) digitisation projects in Germany in the future: the awarding of contracts and funding will be subject to compliance with the principles of open source and open standards."

Fuck the mainland government, actual Nazis of our generation. White power groups are fucking small-time. I stand with Hong Kong. Tell your own government so if you feel the same way. Not CW'd because it's your responsibility to know about and act on this problem.

Bye Bye Brussels.The Open Source workshop of the European Commission was really good. It’s awesome to see that the European Union finally embraces Open Source. Of course the Commission is already a Nextcloud customer since last month.

It's frustrating when young people are so conservative about techniques. The school system often pushes a certain kind of conformity and from the other side the job market often instills the idea that one needs to have "skills" that can be reduced to standardized techniques. For me that means that a lot of 19-year-olds think I'm a crazy heretic when I suggest that you can make a compelling image without using a particular product from the Adobe Corporation.
