#OpenSource#FLOSS#Crypto#Cryptocurrencies#Bitcoin: "The P2P Rights Fund aims to support various legal efforts, including subsidizing defense counsel, sponsoring amicus briefs in pivotal cases, and financing affirmative impact litigation to set favorable legal precedents. Additionally, the fund plans to offer free or subsidized regulatory advice to developers working on non-custodial Bitcoin tools.
The initiative is in direct response to recent legal actions that have raised concerns within the Bitcoin community. Developers of non-custodial tools, such as hardware wallet creators and transaction node operators, are increasingly being treated as financial institutions, which is seen as a fundamental misunderstanding of the technology by the government."
Time, use and practice are key to switching OSes, platforms and apps: you get comfortable with what you use. A good start to moving away from Microsoft Windows might be to install Libre Office on Windows, and start learning to use that for your daily word processing, presentations and spreadsheets. Take some steps with open source software before you even have to tackle a new operating system. #floss#foss#freesoftware#recall#quitwindows#quitmicrosoft

Does anyone know a #FLOSS and perhaps self-hostable music scrobbler? Something similar to last.fm ?
I do not want to post every music I listen to here on my mastodon account, but it would nice to be able to share what I'm listening to with friends and family.
Depending on how big the gap is, I'm willing to contribute money as part of a crowdfunding effort to build up one of the #FLOSS alternatives to replace #Sonos with, possibly including someone building a hardware business to sell some neat audio relay boxes (with or without an AMP, I guess).
I really don't get #Sonos. Instead of alienating their (nerdier) customers, imagine they had an official local extension API:
A lot of #FLOSS developers would recommend them to everyone (b/c most of us can't be bothered to deal with sleek hardware or patented shite like Dolby/HDMI), and they could just leave the local library handling (which they obvs hate) to someone else.
That'd be a marketing boost and give them a platform lock-in.
Instead, they're doing whatever it is they're aiming for?

Say you wanted to spin up an internationalist, remote-first, tech-worker collective, but then you think about bureaucracy and The Fear stops you in your tracks.
Is there a procedural, flow-chart like resource out there?
