Every TikTok "alternative" is just another VC-funded data harvesting machine cosplaying as your friend.

Why is joinloops.org the only real open source option?

Because surveillance capitalism pays better than freedom.

Judge platforms by their code, not their marketing.

If it's not open source, you're not the user, you're the product being sold.

We got some pro tips from Wagtail Core Developer @laymonagesage for anyone applying to Google Summer of Code. Sage started off as a contributor for @django first, so he knows what he's talking about!

I've been working on a new documentation site for komorebi, and for the first time I have included an "Expectations" page

This document outlines expectations that users should have of the software, the development cycle and support, as well as the expectations that I have of them when they reach out for support

I think one-person projects should also consider a document like this

komorebi-starlight.lgug2z.work

Beim Umstieg auf "souveräne Software" habe ich mich oft gefragt, wer steht eigentlich hinter einem Projekt. Ich hab da mal in 2h was gevibecoded, mit dem man eine bessere Idee davon bekommt, aus welchem Land ein Projekt überwiegend kommen könnte. Source Code ist auf Codeberg ;) Ohne Gewähr.

I am speaking with Maurice Hendriks at :

“Procurement Is the Biggest Form of Fundraising for FLOSS”
Track: Funding the FOSS Ecosystem 

Thesis: donations are optional and fragile. Procurement is structural. If public buyers require open deliverables and upstream work, they create durable funding for maintenance and security.

🚀 ejabberd 26.01 is out!

Our first release of 2026 tackles two operational pain points:

- Database Serialization to migrate your data between database and servers more easily.

- Invite-based Registration (mod_invites): Now you can generate invitation links for controlled account creation, plus roster invites that let users connect without friction. (Thanks @nlnet and @zeankPositivDenken 🤯)

Hello Universe!

Moved to new server.

Re-introduction - Been on here since 2022 and should write an intro again. I'm deaf, I'm a fan of open-source projects, so this will be short and sweet.

Post random ramblings, news, techie stuff, boost mostly cat pics. I just like computers and hang around here.

will sich langfristig von und lösen und setzt auf eine neue -Strategie für die Verwaltung.

Geplant sind Schulungen, Sprechstunden, ein Infoportal und ein Linux-basierter Notfallarbeitsplatz. Ziel ist mehr Unabhängigkeit, Transparenz und Sicherheit in der IT.

Erste Maßnahmen laufen bereits, doch die Umstellung erfordert Zeit und Kulturwandel in einer stark von proprietärer Software geprägten Infrastruktur.

Building open source tools for Canada's digital sovereignty movement - think politician trackers, resources, coordination tools (inspired by leavex.eu).

Now facing the obvious question: where should the code live?

🍁 Self-hosted Forgejo (Canadian servers)
🇪🇺 Codeberg (EU, non-profit)

Leaning toward practicing what we preach.

Want to weigh in? Want to contribute? EU allies who've walked this road before - your input is very welcome.

As an American, very enthusiastic for EU folks to hurry up on efforts by supporting software, open protocols and platforms.

Getting more/all EU electeds, staff and orgs on Mastodon and the is one step among many.

Only @HennaVirkkunen among EU electeds and staff is on Mastodon, and that's not even listed on her bio page.

Over 400 EU electeds, staff, orgs are on X/Twitter.
Only 14 are on Bluesky.
Only 6 are on Threads.

curl, which is one of the most popular CLI/API tools for network requests and data transfer on Linux/Unix, is to discontinue its HackerOne bug bounty program due to "too strong incentives to find and make up 'problems' in bad faith that cause overload and abuse".

The authors simply cannot keep up with LLM-generated fake security reports created to collect money using bots. So, it now shuts down at the end of January 2026. This is why we can't have good things
