Back in April we asked you for a helping hand regarding legal matters. We got plenty of people willing to help or at least to guide us towards other like-minded projects that might have the experience we were looking for.

Our of those discussions #FDroid will publish a series of posts that go through all the lessons learned and we hope these will be useful to all #FLOSS #FOSS contributors, maintainers, and developers out there.

Take a 10 minute break for the intro: https://f-droid.org/2025/08/04/legal-one.html

Darby Johnston will be showcasing Kdenlive's OpentimelineIO support at the Academy Software Foundation's Open Source Days. Check it out live tomorrow, 5th of August at 9PM UTC.

La pétition contre la loi Duplomb fait le buzz chez nos amis français avec plus d'un million de signature... Moi, j'ai noté que la plateforme utilisée est propulsée par du logiciel libre : @decidim 👍
Vive le logiciel libre, moteur de la démocratie participative...

Flyer for the End Of 10 campaign. The background colors are a mix of blue and purple, with blobs of green on the edges.

Tux, the penguin mascot of Linux, is visible in the lower right corner.

Top left: End Of 10 logo of four boxes falling over. Under a QR code is the website URL https://endof10.org.

Top right: The title "End Of 10: FOSS Instead Of Toss".

The text on the flyer reads:

"""
Support for Windows 10 ends on October 14, 2025. Microsoft wants you to buy a new computer. But what if you make your existing one fast and secure again?

If you bought your computer after 2010, there's likely no reason to throw it out. By installing an up-to-date Linux operating system, you can keep using it for years to come!

Installing an operating system may sound hard, but you don't have to do it alone. There may be some people in your area who have volunteers to help! Scan the QR code or visit the URL above to find someone to help upgrade your system to Linux.

Five Reasons To Upgrade To Linux:
1. No New Hardware or License Costs
2. Enhanced Privacy
3. Good for the Planet
4. Community and Pro Support
5. Better User Control
