The Free Software Foundation (FSF) today announced "Librephone," a new project aimed at achieving complete mobile phone freedom for users from Google and Apple. The initiative will work to reverse engineer obstacles until its goal of a fully free mobile phone environment is realized. Can they be successful where industry leaders like Ubuntu failed previously?

Part of proper software development is eating your own dogfood. 🐶
So, cascade.nlnetlabs.nl is now signed using Cascade.
We already support most RRtypes, so we'll polish a couple more rough edges and start signing our ‘proper’ domains.
The #DNS community is amazing because people like @bortzmeyer will take your alpha software, turn it inside out, blog about it in French and then give you meticulous feedback on your work.
As a result, a stand-out feature of Cascade—the Review Hooks—have now made it into the documentation using an example provided by Stéphane: using `validns` to validate the unsigned zone, and `dnssec-verify` to validate the signed zone.

More and more governments and organisations are freeing themselves from vendor lock-in! The Austrian military has moved 16,000 PCs to #LibreOffice – getting vital digital sovereignty in the process: https://blog.documentfoundation.org/blog/2025/09/30/austrias-military-switches-from-microsoft-office-to-libreoffice/ #foss#OpenSource #freesoftware
A cross platform desktop app that works on linux, macos, and windows devices for downloading video and audio files from 100s of different websites.
If #openSource / #FOSS is not political, is #rightToRepair allowed to be political? Is #StopKillingGames bad for being explicitly political? Is #openHardware with all the actual physical supply chains with workers and factories and natural resources needed for its production (things that wars are fought over) allowed to be just a bit political, as a treat, so that it can actually reach its stated goals?
Our 300th issue has been released! In this issue, we look at viruses in Linux and include some special features celebrating our 25th anniversary! This month's DVD includes #LinuxFromScratch and @debian 13.1. Order your copy today!
