Today is #ILoveFreeSoftwareDay.

I do! A Free software licence is not a panacea, but I certainly appreciate all of you giving your time, energy, and expertise to increasing the wealth of amazing #FreeSoftware.

This is not a complete list of the #FOSS that I use, nor is it quite up to date, but it is pretty close:

Running a law firm on Free software (2024 edition)

Two years ago, I wrote about running decoded.legal - an English law firm - on Free software.

@neil oh, and by the way, thank you for posting this, especially in such a detailed fashion, it was useful to see what you were using, and also what you'd moved away from.

@neil hi, if you'll excuse me asking, what OS to you run Wazuh on? It looks intriguing, but I was underwhelmed by the recommended Linux distributions in their quickstart guide...

@SonOfSunTzu Debian - nothing fancy, I'm afraid!

@neil good to hear, that implies it should be relatively simple for me to do the same - and I prefer Debian servers over the suggestions on the quickstart page.

Thank you :)

@neil

This is a good read.

I have a selection of FOSS and one-time-license tools for Windows but this made me realize that I don't have such a list for Linux.

And yes, it makes me smile no end that I am posting this from a Free software app on a Free software OS to a Free software application behind a Free software proxy atop a Free software OS *and you can see it*.
