@LPS my understanding is that Taler can only work for people with an account at a bank that runs the part Taler that runs at the bank end. Finding more banks (#CreditUnions) willing to do that would be a great help. Figuring out how to integrate the post that runs at the vendor end into a branch of F-Droid would be immensely helpful. Even as a way of supplementing the existing donation mechanism in F-Droid that would be useful (as banks start to support it)

#ShowerThoughts It would be cool if there was a fork of #FDroid where users could pay for an app, maybe using GNU Taler? Maybe we could install them gratis for a trial period, then when it ends, we're given the choice to either pay or uninstall.

We love processing the software development work invoices of #ReproducibleBuilds developers. They're the only contractors who attach GPG signatures, sha256sums and the like for all their documentation. Apparently, they're also working on #ReproducibleBilling as well.

"Backdrop CMS is a lightweight, easy to deploy Drupal fork specifically designed for small businesses and non-profits." Just one of the projects we welcomed this year that specifically helps other non-profits. https://sfconservancy.org/blog/2018/dec/19/newpeople/

I wonder if #Bitmessage protocol could be used to implement offline text messages in #GNU #Ring?

The #FSF is charging US$60-$120 a year for an "associate membership". That's a pretty decent chunk of change, but it comes with a free email address (forwarded to the email address of your choice), access to an #XMPP service (server? account? both?), free entry to #LibrePlanet, and more. It's one way folks can make sure the FSF is funded by its supporters, not "friendly" corporations.

Outreachy had a fantastic & very busy 2018: 2 new part-time staff, an improved website, 86 interns 😀 and even broader diversity. We couldn't be more proud to serve as their fiscal home! Read all about it: https://sfconservancy.org/blog/2018/dec/20/outreachy2018/

Now that the discourse around #Facebook begins to implicitly accept that it's declining or collapsing, it's become a sure thing. To help accelerate the decline, remind your friends and family of the services that Facebook owns that they should avoid along with the social network: #Instagram, #Whatsapp.
Remind them that #Google are just a more powerful Facebook.
Before they migrate to a new silo, and a new master.. let them know something new is growing over here on the Fediverse.

"North Bay Python is a community-driven conference serving local Python developers -- including beginners." just one of the ways our member projects help bring new people to free software. https://sfconservancy.org/blog/2018/dec/19/newpeople/

In Northern Vietnam there's native women who have very tall hair like Marge Simpson. They even have their own special motorcycle helmets. 😂 #vietnam #simpsons #springfield #helmet #motorcycle

"Free software in Europe, free software everywhere!"
