What does digital independence look like for a #university?
At the University of #Groningen, this conversation has been growing bottom-up: academic & professional support staff are driving a move away from #BigTech toward shared, #open alternatives.
With support from the Uni Board, this effort is shaping a community-driven 5-year roadmap towards #DigitalAutonomy by 2030.
Newspaper Ukrant covered the shift.

Anyone know if there's an "Anna's Archive"-type free repository for standards documents, like from UL, CSA, IEC, ISO, etc? You know, the ones that are mostly developed with public subsidies but then are paywalled at absolutely ludicrous prices that mean only big companies can actually get access to them?
Searching a bit didn't find anything for me.
Asking for a friend ... 😃

Calling on all free and open source developers.
We need recommendations for current platforms that exist to support Owncast streamers via bots, tips, etc that can help people convert from Big Tech platforms and easily move to Twitch.
I'm guessing they don't exist ATM, but I'm willing to start a platform if folks know tools we can use. Such as easily running bot commands in chat.
I know Le Fractal as emojiwall.
What else exists?
What features would YOU need to make your conversion to Owncast or Peertube easier?
