Sometimes I see @alternativeto pushing quite a lot of commercial software and wonder about the perceived shift of perspective.

#CAD #CAM for example: Artsoft's Mach3 & Mach4 are listed separately as controllers, but not the #FreeSoftware #OpenSouce alternative #UGS?! Even #YouTube is better in the case of #CNC since the existence of #UniversalGCODEsender isn't censored (like covid).

Please, stop the progress of #enshitification and save the much appreciated website with more #GPL alternatives. TY

Awesome code.gouv.fr is our curated list of remarkable #FreeSoftware #OpenSouce developed by French public organisations.

🧢 code.gouv.fr/sources/#/awesome

The European Commission has published its "EU Open Source Solutions Catalogue", which refers to "solutions created by and for European public services".

👉 interoperable-europe.ec.europa

Awesome code.gouv.fr is referenced in the EU FLOSS Catalogue, making it easier for any country to reuse these French #FreeSoftware #OpenSource solutions.

Thank you 🇪🇺

I'm a candidate for #OpenSouce Initiative Director, “Affiliate district” . I got an unsolicited email (late PM, FRI 2025-03-07) from an Affiliate (their Executive Director is someone I've known them since circa 2003) & they told me they voted for me as #1. #OSI told candidates election ran *at least* 10 days including two weekends, but apparently it was actually 6.5 days & only one weekend.

The laundry list of election irregularities grows.

#introduction Hello, world!

My day job is a field engineer, which means I solve customer’s business problems with software. I’m a developer, solutions/enterprise architect, devrel depending on the day of the week.

Technology-wise, I’m in the #FastData space, with #Java #DistributedSystems #InMemory #OpenSouce. I’ve written production code in over a dozen languages.

By night I’m asleep. But in between I’m all about the dad jokes and complaining about the state of British and American politics.
