Using this functionality, our team decided to automate our leave request process, making it more efficient and user-friendly for both employees and the accounting department.

"It is important to be able to communicate freely", says Jérôme Poisson aka @Goffi in the NGI0 #podcast. He is the main developer of Libervia, a communication ecosystem based on #XMPP.
XMPP is mostly known for chat but Libervia offers many more features such as blogs, fora, events & file sharing. It has gateways to other open protocols like #ActivityPub & email. He talks about Libervia, the political side of technology & offers advise about #NGI0 grants.

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.
