#Purism offers now optional subscriptions to advance the development of PureOS. PureOS is also the default operating system for the #Librem5 #Linux #phone.
"PureOS will continue to be freely available for all, there is no product difference for subscribers or non-subscribers."
Purism has a long list of requests and never enough developer resources.
Subscribing enables @purism to invest more in #FOSS maintenance, innovations, and development.

Johan Linåker: "Report: Public Sector Open Source Program Offices - Archetypes for how to Grow (Common) Institutional Capabilities": https://www.linaker.se/blog/public-sector-open-source-program-offices/
"One of the main challenges is the limited knowledge within the public sector in terms of both what open source is, but also how it can be leveraged [...]"
We need to change that!
Found along with other interesting stuff in the latest #NOSAD (Network Open Source and Data) newsletter (in Swedish): https://nosad.se/news_jun_2024

We've updated https://switching.software again!
For instance, we updated the description of @cryptpad, an easy to use yet powerful end-to-end encrypted replacement for #MS356, #GoogleDocs and unencrypted pads.
If you find outdated content, please look through the open issues before creating new ones: https://codeberg.org/swiso/website/issues

This seems exactly correct. I make computational art, and I write about the same technical topics that LLMs aren’t terrible at. But I genuinely don’t think I’m losing my audience to the latest gpt model. It’s not my skill as a coder or an artist that makes people care about my work, it’s the connection between the author and the audience that makes it work. I’m not stackoverflow, I’m a human being who shows herself in her work
Recommending this #FOSDEM talk:
The new Swiss Open Source Law: "Public Money Public Code" by default
Matthias Stürmer, Rika Koch
Recording available here: https://media.fsfe.org/w/aQs7EbEUQGt4DP13SsqAJ7 - starting at about 2:31 in that video.
This is very good news: Switzerland has a new law that takes effect starting this year, saying that the Swiss public sector at national level shall publish source code for the software it develops or pays others to develop.

Vid kl 17 hade 59,4 procent av de registrerade väljarna röstat. Tre timmar kvar tills de sista vallokalerna stänger.

#phosh 0.40 will correctly detect the #steamdeck's panel orientation and start up in landscape mode now! 🎉
Here's a photo of it running on #postmarketOS!
There are still a few rough edges with running pmOS, phosh, and the other UIs we support, on the Steam Deck... but it's still really nice to see one rough edge smoothed out.
pmOS on the Steam Deck, just like the blueberries in the photo, is not quite ready for consumption... 🤞 😄
Thank you @agx for your help and patience!

Danish government broadcaster DR is closing their profiles on X because the tone is too toxic and they can’t moderate replies to their posts. Would be great to see them in the Fediverse, but that is probably too much to ask for at this point.

🎤✨ Next keynote speaker announcement at the Nextcloud Community Conference 2024: Prof. Björn Lundell!
Professor Lundell will give a must-see talk "Recipes for getting stuck in proprietary clouds: How public sector organisations discriminate against OSS solutions".

Sometimes it takes decades for everyone to move over to the new thing, whatever it is, and instead we are stuck with supporting both the new and the old thing, seemingly forever.
In your opinion, what is the worst example of this?
