    GNU/Linux is generously made by users. Because of their good will and the four freedoms, #freesoftware is on your side.

    @InternetKevin
    > there's nothing ethically wrong with "honest" proprietary software. The only problem is users usually don't know whether proprietary software is honest or not.

    That's my view as well. But some (many?) #FreeSoftware advocates (e.g., #FSF) seem to feel that proprietary software is per se harmful. They point out that "proprietary software is *often* malware", but argue that non-malware proprietary software is still wrong.

    And that last view is the one I don't quite understand.

    Sweden’s newly created public sector digitalisation hub, has adopted a policy for its use of #OpenSource. “We want to be open and accessible, and make it easy for partners to benefit from the knowledge we build” - That's great. Only the argument for non-protecting licenses is a little bit misguiding. https://joinup.ec.europa.eu/collection/open-source-observatory-osor/news/tax-funded-source-code #publicCode #FreeSoftware #policy

    Warum wird durch Steuergelder finanzierte Software nicht als Freie Software veröffentlicht?

    Wenn es sich um öffentliche Gelder handelt, sollte auch der Code öffentlich sein!

    Great to see that #CERN wants to become more independent and moves to #FreeSoftware. That's the right direction, but don't do it just for the costs, otherwise companies might trick you into the next vendor lock-in with just a lower price for proprietary software, Open Core or similar marketing tricks. https://home.cern/news/news/computing/microsoft-alternatives-project-malt #MAlt
