Anti-fascistic software is made possible by pro-labor licensing.

I've been trying to write this piece for years. Every time I get started I'm just overwhelmed with paralyzing visions of the FOSS commentariat accusing me of WrongThink.

But I'm tired and we urgently need to get our shit together.

I'm a happy paying user of @signal.org but I'm disappointed by @meredithmeredith.bsky.social thread about the AWS outage.

Signal chose a centralized design to be more nimble (watch to media.ccc.de/v/36c3-11086...), but that comes with drawbacks.
The ecosystem is moving

It's going to be absolutely critical that we be able to hack on and trust the hardware we use. I think the hardware from MNT is the best bet we have for a computing future we still have a say in mnt.re

I hope the MNT Reform Next is going to make MNT's stuff more accessible to more people
