#floss #networking I need to replace a couple of old network switches.

Are there any companies doing open source switch hardware and software? I would like to tinker.

  • 1U
  • 12 or more10G fiber ports
  • a couple of faster uplinks would be nice
  • decent RESTish API or ansible support

Something like https://vyos.io #vyos seems suitable but it looks like I would have to diy my own hardware

i think it’s time to redefine FLOSS: if it is funded or owned by an equity firm or a for-profit corporation, especially a publicly traded company, then it isn't. don't mean you can't make money. it just means the ownership should be either as a public good paid for with government funding, an NGO or, more precisely, a workers’ cooperative. #FLOSS should be public goods structured as #cooperatives. A $6bn question hangs over SUSE's sovereignty pitch https://www.theregister.com/2026/04/28/sovereignty_its_all_about_the/?td=rt-3a

@voltrina@social.freedombits.org @dushman@hollow.raccoon.quest I'd go with #Skulls or #Heads or #LibreBoot or #Canoeboot (both the latter are done by @libreleah@mas.to )… Depending on how extreme you want your #FLOSS to be…

Also #FLOSS does work! That's why #Cyberfascism like "#AgeVerification", #CensorBoot aka. "#SecureBoot" and "#DeviceAttestation" is being shoved down, with #criminalization of those that refuse to comply!And yes, that doesn't exclude the need to abolish the #GAFAMs and actually enforce existing laws!

#Inkscape 1.4.4 is getting soooo close 🤏! Try out the release candidate for this bugfix and maintenance release and help us catch any blocker bugs 🪤🐛 by giving it a good round of testing before the release (planned for May)! https://inkscape.org/release/inkscape-1.4.4rc/ #testing #freesoftware #floss #libreGraphics

@tsdgeos@fosstodon.org @noodlejetski@masto.ai @soapdog@toot.cafe but @frameworkcomputer@fosstodon.org doubled down on their supoort for #DHH when there are only few people like #RMS that are worse. I'd rather loved to see them do a raffle for that among #FLOSS maintainers…

Not sure where #Google asked for feedback about their developer verification program, but they surely didn't talk with #FLOSS devs, civil society, privacy organisations or their #Android users #FDroid did since September, and interacted with folks in the Fediverse, forum, email and in person They all voiced one opinion: "developer verification must be stopped" @marcprux@mastodon.social has written an open letter, signed by likeminded organisations who want to #keepandroidopen Click: https://f-droid.org/2026/02/24/open-letter-opposing-developer-verification.html

Vorsicht #KI: An welchen Antworten ihr #Linux Support Bots erkennt, wenn ihr ein Problem habt.

  • Du bist zu anspruchsvoll
  • Es ist #FLOSS, repariers selber
  • Wechsel die Distro
  • Bei mir im #Homelab läufts
  • Windows ist scheisse
  • Dafür bist du digital soverän

Lasst euch nicht entmutigen von den aggressiven und unwissenden Bots. Linux läuft besser ohne sie und es gibt immer eine Lösung.

(1/3) i really hope that in 100 years, it will be just as common and just as serious to say "i believe in Free+Decentralized Software" as it is now to say "i believe in free speech" people are starting to understand, but only partly or for the wrong reasons (privacy, microslop, cost, etc) #FreeSoftware #FOSS #FLOSS #OpenSource #Decentralization #Decentralisation #FreedomTech #FreeDecentralizedSoftware
