“The belief that open source is unsafe or unusable is simply not true.” 💡
The Dutch cooperative SURF aims to prove that — by creating a framework to support digital commons and assist institutions in adopting open-source collaboration tools such as Nextcloud Hub.

Heads up on recent mesa upgrades in postmarketOS edge:
* Due to changes in the drivers for the Mali GPUs in Mediatek SoCs like MT8183, the recent update to Mesa 25 causes graphical display issues on Mediatek SoCs. A workaround is in preparation: https://postmarketos.org/edge/2025/05/05/Graphical-issue-with-Mesa-25-on-Mediatek-SoCs/
* The qcom/adreno bug that caused GTK4 apps to fail to start with the new GTK4 rendering backend has been fixed in the latest patch release! Related workaround will be removed once it is in flatpak: https://gitlab.postmarketos.org/postmarketOS/pmaports/-/merge_requests/6472
I have been gaming since 1992 and building PCs since 2003. I enjoy Linux, supporting FOSS projects and am a tinfoil hat connoisseur.
Many FOSS projects rely on donations. If you have money to spare but don't know which to donate to take a look at the above links on Ko-fi, Github, and Open Collective. Anything on there that I have sponsered or contributed to is something I have found to be worthy.
