Anti-fascistic software is made possible by pro-labor licensing.

I've been trying to write this piece for years. Every time I get started I'm just overwhelmed with paralyzing visions of the FOSS commentariat accusing me of WrongThink.

But I'm tired and we urgently need to get our shit together.

We have to talk about open source licensing.

I'm a happy paying user of @signal.org but I'm disappointed by @meredithmeredith.bsky.social thread about the AWS outage.

Signal chose a centralized design to be more nimble (watch to media.ccc.de/v/36c3-11086...), but that comes with drawbacks.
The ecosystem is moving

It's going to be absolutely critical that we be able to hack on and trust the hardware we use. I think the hardware from MNT is the best bet we have for a computing future we still have a say in mnt.re

I hope the MNT Reform Next is going to make MNT's stuff more accessible to more people
