@b0rk We also strive not to elevate any one person as the single face of the movement. For #softwarefreedom to be successful we'll need many people advocating in concert. I'm really proud that at #SFC there's no single authority but instead we always work together both as a staff and with independent folks.

If no one person embodies our part of the movement, then it's much less likely we'll unduly elevate toxic personalities.

And if you don't ask us questions about #SFC or #softwarefreedom, I may ask you questions!

Anything is fair game - have any questions about @outreachy? The Vizio case? #GPL enforcement? Our member projects? Being a #cyborg?

Hooray for AMAs right here on the Fedi over the next 2 days! How better to wrap up 2025 than by chatting about #SoftwareFreedom?

… #SoftwareFreedom @conservancy (where I work) helps #FOSS projects w/nonprofit infrastructure. We don't need to offer server hosting *b/c* OSU OSL exists. SFC projects like @inkscape & others rely *every day* on @ramereth & his team.
ALSO: Lance is training the next generation of FOSS system infrastructure engineers — slowly becoming a lost art to proprietariness since the knowledge is increasingly locked in big hosting companies.
