France quietly deployed 100,000+ Linux machines in their police force - GendBuntu is a silent EU tech success story www.reddit.com/r/BuyFromEU/... Let us get free from Microsoft. They are not trustworthy & all taxpayers' money should go to fund open-source software and not to Bill Gates' fortune.
From Reddit post: France quietly deployed 100,000+ Linux machines in their police force - GendBuntu is a silent EU tech success story I wanted to spotlight a quietly massive success story in European digital sovereignty: GendBuntu — France’s custom Ubuntu distribution used by the National Gendarmerie. The GendBuntu project derives from Microsoft's decision to end the development of Windows XP Back in 2005, France’s Gendarmerie began switching from Microsoft products to open-source software — starting with OpenOffice. Fast forward to 2024, and GendBuntu(Linux) is now running on 97% of their workstations (over 103,000 computers!). France has shown what’s possible when a government actually backs open-source, in-house, and EU-grown solutions. More countries should follow suit.
