We didn't have the funds necessary to move to a bigger platform which was upsetting to us. The author Braillynn felt like they didn't have enough knowledge about Linux to write articles about the goings on in the Linux world. They wrote some articles that they felt were off topic or that the community would not benefit from. She fell into a deep depression and eventually lost interest in the site as her mental health took priority. The site was a great learning experience for her and her love of

Hello everyone,

Long time no talk. Some of you may know that our site is no longer here, we haven't been around for around for over a year and so much has happened in that time. We want to thank everyone who supported our work and give you all an update as to where we went. We had some pretty big plans for the site and we wanted to move to a bigger platform to bring more features and a way for everyone to be more involved. However, it didn't work out.

I was quite shocked when I recently logged into Discord and it asked me to enter my school email to get connected with different Discord pages tied to the college that I'm attending. How would Discord know I'm in currently enrolled in college, what type of information are they collecting to know that information?

Just want to say to everyone sorry that their has not been a blog post in a while, we've been busy with school and tossing around the idea of transitioning from write.as to ghost.org as well as making our blog posts audio focused. Thoughts and opinions on this? .me

My college courses require that I use a Windows/MacOS only program known as the LockDown Browser by Respondus, to be able to take my very important quizzes. Considering this program doesn't run on Linux and attempting to use it in a VM will only cause the program to think you're cheating makes it a chore to go through school using FOSS software. I just find it frustrating feeling like a second class citizen.

We're going to college!...In the Fall :P for a Digital Marketing program to help boost the awareness of FOSS. What are the best Linux laptop options for new college students, and which ones offer back to school/student discounts?

librefree.me turns 1 years old this month! What started as a passion project has opened the doors for a lot of great opportunities and for making some really good friends. I want to thank everyone who not only reads our blog posts, but lets us know their opinions and questions as well. For the upcoming year, we plan on launching a Patreon for those looking to help support us as well as becoming an Amazon affiliate, as we do need to keep the lights on.
