@michalfita closer to la frite!
Quant à moi j'aurai à 10h30 ma casquette  @Framasoft pour une lecture du livre "Ada & Zangemann, un conte sur les logiciels, les skateboards et la glace à la vanille" écrit par  @kirschner de la  @fsfe et illustré par Sandra Brandstätter.
J'utiliserai son édition kamishibai A3 réalisée par mes soins.
Le livre (format classique) est édité en Français (et en versions bilingues FR/EN et FR/DE) par  @cfeditions

Est-ce que quelqu'un sait si des études ont été faites sur l'  #histoire du  #libre et de l'  #opensource, sous l'angle de l'organisation du travail des créateurs de logiciels? Ce qui m'intéresserait de mieux comprendre, c'est dans quelle mesure le développement de tels logiciels peut se faire hors d'une structure entreprenariale ou dans une structure moins néolibérale/capitaliste. Vous avez des revues ou ouvrages qui couvrent ce genre problématique? 
Some big news regarding mobile OSes:
First, Graphene OS has confirmed a partnership with a large OEM to bring support to non-Pixel devices (Snapdragon SoC):
https://piunikaweb.com/2025/10/13/grapheneos-ending-pixel-exclusivity-new-oem/
This is good news, but IMHO it only delays the unavoidable demise of free AOSP-based projects since Google is now finally pulling the rug.
Second, the FSF announced Librephone, an initiative to bring real freedom to mobile devices:
https://www.fsf.org/news/librephone-project
This is also good, but it must be taken in the right perspective: Librephone, as far as I understand it, is not a new mobile OS, but rather an initiative to open-source existing proprietary firmware blobs. AOSP-based open source OSes like Lineage, Graphene, and even /e/OS, will hopefully benefit from this initiative, by being able to replace binary blobs with open-source firmware. But they still remain AOSP-based solutions, and therefore bound to the Google ecosystem.
There are two problems here that really need to be addressed.
The first one is political. Legislators and citizens must come to acknowledge that a democratic society where the full mobile ecosystem is in the hands of a corporate duopoly is not acceptable.
The second one is technological: AOSP is not a fully free OS, it's a trojan horse, a trap set by Google years ago that is springing right now. We need to move away from Android and embrace full GNU/Linux solutions, or even something completely new, at this point I don't even care. I've heard good opinions of Postmarket OS. Any feedbacks here?
Say what you want about Richard Stallman, but he saw this coming.

Does anyone in the EU (or elsewhere?!) have links to any case studies about migrating from Microsoft to #opensource / #libre / #FOSS that include actual financial figures?

@hamishcampbell @cascheranno Seems to me the problem is neoliberal governments, and the missing piece of the puzzle is the need to identify #libre software / #FOSS for what it is, critical (digital) infrastructure and fund it accordingly. And 'public money = public code' where the way it's made public is *copyleft*, not weak open source. Then communities can compete on a much more level playing field with the current proprietary loci of control.
Samedi 25 octobre à la médiathèque José Cabanis à Toulouse, c'est journée du Libre ! Save the date !
J'y serai présent le matin à 10h30 pour une lecture de Ada & Zangemann avec mon kamishibai, suivie d'une discussion sur les enjeux d'utiliser un numérique plus éthique que celui proposé (imposé ?) par les géants du numérique.
Et peut-être un peu d'install party en début d'aprem...

Pour la communication d'un évènement militant écolo :
- documents sur google drive
- modèle sur canva
- Réseau sociaux : instagram, facebook, bluesky, twitter, linkedin, tiktok
La communication est quali, mais côté outil, il y a rien qui va. Force aux libristes des ces collectifs organisant. Ça doit pas être facile en interne.
En attendant on va fermer tout ça et faire sa tambouille sur Inkscape.

Bonjour !
Ce samedi 4 octobre je serai présent au  @RoseLab pour le #RepairCafe mensuel ; en effet, nous ajoutons la carte  #install_party #Linux à notre jeu !
C'est particulièrement important en cette période où Windows 10 arrive en fin de vie et risque de mettre au rebut beaucoup de PC. Vous pouvez les sauver au lieu de jeter et racheter !
Si jamais, on cherche aussi des bénévoles pour m'épauler...

I know many people who are aware of the importance of #FreedomRespecting software, data, and culture - and the related issues of digital sovereignty and privacy.
Paradoxically, a lot of these people also participate in, or even maintain, communities hosted on #nonfree / #proprietary / #restricted or #centralized platforms like #Telegram, #Discord, #WhatsApp, #Signal, #Instagram, #Facebook, #Twitter, #LinkedIn, #Bluesky, #GitHub, and others.
To state the obvious, each community which chooses a proprietary platform - or bridges to it - is also giving another reason for others to be on that platform. It’s reinforcing network effect.
Conversely, if these communities chose to move to free platforms, their members would be forced to move as well. In other words, these communities have the opportunity to push for change on a massive scale.
Sure, you have to reach out to people on proprietary platforms, if that’s where the majority are. But you cannot be stopping there - you must have a strategy to move people away from proprietary platforms to free platforms.
To give the example of #OpenStreetMap -
- I announce events on free platforms sooner
- I remind people on proprietary platforms that they should join the free platforms to get notified earlier
- After each event, we invite people to our #XMPP channel, which is not bridged to any other platform.
- All organizational talk takes place on our XMPP channel, which is not bridged to any other platform.
- I minimize my participation on proprietary platforms, and communities which bridge to them. The bulk of my activity happens on free platforms.
- I have never submitted data to Mapillary or KartaView, because their clients and servers are proprietary. All my contributions go to #WikimediaCommons and #Panoramax.
So to the people who are choosing - and therefore promoting - proprietary platforms, I ask…
How do you think things are going to change, if everyone keeps choosing what is easiest for them, and keeps choosing, supporting, and promoting proprietary platforms?
What part are you playing in making things better? Or are you just going to go with the flow of the world, even if you know it to be wrong?
They don’t like answering these questions.
Instead, I invite them to find the integrity and courage to answer them.
Or, to find the integrity and courage to make the obvious change and do the obvious right thing.
People hate it when I bring this up. Sorry, but my conscience dictates that I speak up for what is right. Silence is complicity, and it gets us nowhere.
 @rae  @moshimotsu  @pthane After a long and tricky discussion with the team, we decided to go with the name LibreConnect 📱💻 It's simple, technical, and full of meaning - it reflects the idea of connecting devices without creating dependency, with a strong focus on privacy and control 🔐 It also brings LibreOffice to mind, which fits our philosophy: openness, transparency, freedom 
Big thanks for all your suggestions  Each one was considered and helped us look at the project from different angles. Even if it wasn't picked, it still shaped the app. Because open-source is not just about code - it's about community 💜
