Me too. And if you want to go with the new one, how about using the current colors?

@bjarni Assuming this is a serious question and for the benefit of those who don't know, here's my take.

Fight for freedom. privacy and anonymity for the common person.

Fight for accountability, transparency and equality for those in positions of power.

At an individual level, keep your work life transparent and your personal life private.

I just searching "slideshow" in my package manager (Debian/PureOS).
Got 30 results. At least "photofilmstrip" mentions audio, but I assume others do too. And some sound really interesting.

Hab ich Zeichenbegabte in meiner TL? Malt mir wer nen Comic, wo Merkel Topfdchlagen spielt und in der vรถllig falschen Richtung nach dem Klimaschutz-Topf sucht. Dann kommt der 20.9. Sie dreht sich ein klein wenig in die richtige Richtung und ruft "gewonnen"! Topf noch weit weg.

I worked on both corporate open-source software and real free software and there's a world of difference between the two. Makes me cringe every time someone says open-source where free software is more appropriate.

I reserve my use of the word open-source for software made by corporations for which the source code is available, but no attention has been paid to respect the freedom of its users or the rights of the developers who worked on it.

#FreeSoftware #OpenSource

Indeed. Pragmatically, I'd consider the baseband a part of the untrusted network, so how free its sw is, is mostly philosophical. Due to regulations it seems impossible to have it really free.

Agreed, you'll not always find "privacy wifi". But even if you need to register, it's likely less centralized than now (also: multiple accounts, change MAC?). Besides, if there are a few (home, work, friends, bars) that's already a good start.

@saper @alcinnz @lightweight @ehashman @ptvirgo@mastodon.technology @deejoe @gid@cybre.space
The baseband is not free, but that's not RMS problem. It will still be RYF. He doesn't want to use it bc of position tracking when baseband is on, which is not a software problem. Src: theregister.co.uk/2019/09/17/r
But Purism envisions being able to e.g. use WiFi+VPN+Matrix, replacing classic calls completely.

@alexbuzzbee
Not there yet. Intend to use openHAB on top of KNX. While KNX is not really open, it is standardized, has components by dozens of companies and is some decades older than "cloud", which is a plus.
Not sure how well it would work outside Europe.

People who've done FOSS/self-hosted home automation, what system(s) did you use and how well does your setup work?
