I learned from #FSFE (https://fsfe.org/activities/android/liberate.en.html#OS) that #LineageOS and #GrapheneOS are Libre and Ethical replacement to Android. However recently I found that #GNU (https://www.gnu.org/distros/common-distros.html) recognize them as non endorsable! Any idea about this discrepancy?

#OpenWashing has become a growing issue in the Free Software community. Many companies claim to be working on “Open Source” or “Free Software” while distributing proprietary software products.

We at the @fsfe would like to learn more about current market practices, and we need your help!

Please share your views and experiences on openwashing here:

Please spread the word, any input is welcome!

💻🌍 Digital sovereignty might sound big — but it’s really about taking control of the tech that shapes our lives. It’s important for young people to learn that technology doesn’t have to be a black box — it’s something you can understand, explore, and even build yourself!

That’s why I love :fsfe: @fsfe’s "Youth Hacking 4 Freedom" — a coding competition for teens (14–18) across Europe. The next round kicks off on January 1, 2026 🚀

If you’re into coding, creativity, and shaping the digital future, this is your chance to shine!

I have created an event on the Devon Connect website to try and promote I love free software day on 14/2/2026. If anyone is in Devon (or elsewhere), could get in touch with DevonConnect and suggest they add support for social networks such as those on the Fediverse it would be really helpful.

https://devonconnect.org

I have contacted them about this, but it needs more people to do that, to create a demand for that.

Thanks

🔥 Digitale Souveränität: Wie die #EU Freie Software ausblendet

Um sich von Big Tech unabhängig zu machen, istweniger relevant, wo Lösungen herkommen, sondern vielmehr dass sie #OpenSource sind, entgegnen zivilgesellschaftliche Akteure

🔓 „Wenn ab sofort ein steigender Anteil der öffentlichen Gelder, die jetzt noch für Softwarelizenzen ausgegeben werden, in #FreieSoftware fließt, stärkt das nicht nur Europas #Souveränität, sondern auch den europäischen Standort.“

Thanks to the @fsfe for sending some merch just in time to the open house of my daughters school.
We used it to spread the word about free software and projects like Ada & Zangemann.

Drei Herzen hüpfen Hosiann:

Wir vom #CodeForNiederrhein Hacker- & Maker:innen-Space in Moers lesen im Rahmen des #Vorlesetags am Freitag das Kinderbuch „ #Ada & #Zangemann" von @kirschner von der #FSFE vor.

Unsere @C4NRN Crew hat noch zusätzliche Sprachenpackete 🇹🇷 🇷🇺 übersetzt so daß wir insgesammt jetzt den Kindern und Erwachsnene aus der Nachbarschaft ein buntes Hör- und Vorlesevergnügen in bieten können.
