I have to say that I'm really impressed by the first virtual #FOSDEM. Wouldn't have expected that it works that well and that it is that much fun to participate. 🙂

Thanks a lot to all the organizers, speakers, people who run the booths, etc! Well done! 👍

Normally I would travel to Brussels for #fosdem right now. 😢

Not sure how much I will be able to participate at the online event but I hope we all can meet again in Brussels next year!

Gerade erst durch den Podcast des @lfdi gelernt das die Landesregierung Baden-Württemberg auch ganz offiziell auf Mastodon ist... Hallo @RegierungBW 👋 Ich hoffe das macht Schule! #Politik

Great to see that Fedilab is still alive! 🙂 😍

#Google starts to lock out non-official Chrome builds like #Chromium. The #web is a cricual infrastructure these days and as such we need independent browsers and rendering engines!

If you care about the free and open web you shouldn't use Chrome based browsers.

I'm looking for a in-ear #bluetooth #headset (stereo) which works for video conferences on #Linux.

Currently I have the Jabre Elite 65t, they work nicely as headphones but the microphone doesn't work on Linux. Unfortunately it is almost impossible to find any information about this on any product description.

Any first-hand experience and recommendations?

Stellungnahme zur Verwendung von Cloud-Software in Schulen:

"Die Einführung von MS 365 im Rahmen der Bildungsplattform würde bei einer Nutzung durch Schülerinnen und Schüler zu einer frühen Prägung auf eine proprietäre Software führen. Dies würde sowohl dem Ziel einer bevorzugten Nutzung freier Lern- und Lehrmaterialien als auch dem Ziel einer auf die Erziehung zur Mündigkeit ausgerichteten Medien- und Verbraucherbildung widersprechen."

I'm really sad to hear that Thomas decided to leave all social networks and with it the development of #Fedilab.

It was always my preferred app for #Mastodon and #Friendica. I will continue to use it as long as possible and hope that others will pick it up.

I can understand his decision on a personal level and wish him all the best. We should not allow such toxic behavior in our communities and take a clear stance against it.

I'm looking for Free Software success stories in 2020, especially in the education area. Do you know schools which started to organize their home schooling efforts with Free Software during the pandemic? Please share it here: https://community.fsfe.org/t/free-software-in-eductaion-success-stories-2020/573 #Education #fsfe #FreeSoftware #OpenSource

Sometimes I don't get notified about new messages on my Android phone from my self hosted #Matrix homeserver. Now I wonder whether my configuration may not be complete. I didn't configured anything related to push notifications and can't find anything about it in the documentation. Do I need to setup my own firebase account and connect it somehow to my homeserver? Or does matrix.org host a default push proxy?

This gorgeous screenshots make we wanna have a #Linux #tablet. Any recommendations? #gnome #mobile

I consider switching from #Debian testing to #openSUSE Thumbleweed on my working laptop. No flamewars, just your first hand experience... Why is it a good or a bad idea?

Question to the #Python #GTK developers: Which IDE do you use and did you managed to enable auto-completion? I discussed it here already a few months ago but without any solution: https://discourse.gnome.org/t/getting-started-with-gtk-app-development/140/20?u=bjoern

I might give it another try the next few weeks. Maybe I find here some developers who can share their best practices and their setup?
