Flock wouldn't exist without Red Hat and we don't just mean the sponsorship.

Red Hat engineers are some of Fedora's most active upstream contributors. They maintain core packages, drive release engineering, and shape the direction of the distribution every single release cycle. Many of them are at Flock now!

Thank you for building Fedora alongside us!

The fact that #Anthropic had to take down #Fable5 for users outside of the US by order of the US government shows how critical it is today to rely on US services

Imagine they'd do the same with #WhatsApp, you will not be able to talk to your #family and friends anymore

Dear researchers,
I am sick of #Elsevier and their antics (ridiculous APCs, inaccessible articles, unauthorised data-mininig, etc.) and want to avoid publishing with them as much as possible.

Can you suggest good journals in the following topics / fields (society journals welcome):

1. #microalgae
2. #molecularbiology
3. #crispr
4. #sustainability

#opensource #openaccess #academicresearch #academia

Please #boost so I can reach other academics.

We want Zerion independently audited. A real security audit is how a privacy app proves itself, because code should speak louder than marketing, and we’d rather be checked than believed.

Audits cost money, and we’re independent, so we’re asking for help. Every bit genuinely counts, no amount is too small, and it all goes toward getting Zerion properly reviewed.

If you believe in what we’re building, you can support it here:

@Tutanota Perfect time for people to jump ship and upgrade to LaTeX which is free and open source. It can do everything MS Word and PowerPoint can do and about a million things more and you can choose your editor. This is a decision you will never regret.

Or if you just want a free and open source alternative, or need the full office suite, then there's Libre Office.

As always, screw Microsoft.

PSA regarding a change in how Secure Boot will work in Fedora soon. The change isn't urgent, but it is something you should take a look at.
