By moving out of the FSF office, we realized how many fun and historically important free software memorabilia the FSF has and we thought it a pity to lock them away in a storage unit where nobody ever sees them.

#DRM isn't just an annoyance -- it's a violation of your right to use the items you own as you see fit. Learn more about our #DefectiveByDesign campaign at http://defectivebydesign.org #FSF
Update regarding the Matrix / OFTC IRC bridge for postmarketOS channels (+ related like Sxmo): We will keep a bridge around. We have set up a selfhosted bridge and are waiting on OFTC to increase our connection limit before we can start using it, which will probably happen any day now.

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.
