Librem Chat is...
- Text, Voice, & Video
- Private (end-to-end encrypted chatrooms that only participants can see).
- Ad Free (that's right... zero ads and zero tracking)
- Free to use
- Available right now
@TheFuzzStone@fosstodon.org I installed it on my MacBook and like it a lot. Usually I use Mate for my desktop but getting used to #gnome
@bazurk I do like it, and got the wireless modem working. Very impressed so far
@gbryant have you played empire earth? This is the one reason I keep a windows laptop just for this game. Would love to hear if you know of a solution to play it on Linux. I use the gog version.
@milan that’s very cool
Colorado Springs on May 21st. 😮 #colorado #coloradosprings #nature #snow
Colorado in May. Amazing weather. #colorado #coloradosprings #snow #nature
Stumbled on to PopOS by #system76. I think I’ll be giving this one a try. I tried PureOS but couldn’t get some things to work on my MacBook so we’ll see how this one does. #popos #linux #opensource
@eff agree 100%
I’m a little disappointed on the 3rd episode of #the100. Octavia has the right idea and she gets left outside the city. And for Bellamy to leave her doesn’t make much sense. Don’t know where they are going with this but she’ll probably end up running a new set of grounders now.

Laws to protect consumers from corporations that harvest and monetize their personal data are not enough. It is also necessary for these laws to have bite, to ensure companies do not ignore them.
Glad to be one of the 4985. I’m sure #LibremOne will hit it’s 5000 user goal today. #Purism
@sophia@glitterkitten.co.uk have you ever looked at EyeEm? You might be able to make some money off some of your photos. You have some really good ones.
I’m going full in with #purism. Paid for the #LibremOne package, switching my MacBook to #PureOS this weekend, and once I find out which phone companies will accept #Librem5 I will switch my phone as soon as possible. Half support is not an option if we want to give serious competition to the Big Companies / Monopolies. #supportlinux #domorethanfree
I get it that a lot of “techies” will switch to #LibremOne which is good and bad. Some of them are condescending to new users who may not understand it as much, but we all need to welcome new users and make it as simple and enjoyable as possible that’s the only way to get the numbers of people that will make a difference. If people truly understood how simple and easy #linux is they would switch to that and not chromebooks. Make it fun everyone, just like the LibremOne commercial.
Testing out the #LibremOne package. Like the VPN, trying Chat, social might take some time to get used to, and haven’t tried the mail yet. Ditching my Instagram today and all Google items. I will probably switch to the family package soon. #purism

NSL gag orders block companies from telling customers their data is being sought. FBI is required to determine whether the gag orders are still necessary, and terminate those that are not. EFF sued for records to find out if the FBI is following the law.
