@thibaultamartin At this point open source development (not just source code, but also commit history, issues discussion) is fueling LLMs training. That's where money should come.

@thibaultamartin difficult question tbh 😅

I'll assume it's $3,000 instead...
And I'll divide it into three parts:
One third I'll give to @protonprivacy
One third I'll give to @GrapheneOS.
And one third I'll give to the developers of @fedora .
@thibaultamartin

@thibaultamartin I would split it among Immich, Mozilla Thunderbird, Mastodon and Incus!

@thibaultamartin Linux based mobile OS project

@thibaultamartin My pocket. Because, like the vast majority of open source developers, my employer paid(1) me to develop open source software.

It is a weird dichotomy that much open source, especially Linux, is heavily funded by corporations, while some open source, for example curl, receives barely any funding.

(1) paid rather than pays because I am retired.

@thibaultamartin I will think first about the project your compagny is using without conttibuting (it is not a jugement, just it is very common)

@thibaultamartin JUnit, AssertJ, Maven and probably one of the open JDK distributions.

@thibaultamartin split between GNOME, niri, Codeberg, and Servo.

GNOME & niri, for making me feel at home on my PC. Codeberg, because they do a fantastic job at providing a much needed service. Servo, because I'd like a usable browser at some point in the future.

@thibaultamartin

My employer gave me that money and it went mainly to #miniDebConf #Berlin and to multiple #XMPP sprints.

#DebConf #Debian #Jabber

For me I think I would spend it as

- €260 on @gnome (price of a Win 11 Pro licence)
- €100 to @YaLTeR for Niri
- €100 to @flathub
- €349 on @kdenlive (price of a Final Cut Pro licence)
- €50 on @thunderbird
- €50 on Helix
- The rest as tips for small utilities that make my life easier

@thibaultamartin Probably straight to a core Debian maintainer, if I couldn't find another option looking through our stack.
