   @bert_hubert @luis_in_brief @sovtechfund maybe pitch the the open source uni(fedi)verse as digital cheese? Full with holes, occasionally smelly but overall an essential nutrient and very enjoyable too.

     @luis_in_brief @sovtechfund we probably spend more on subsidizing cheese. Very good cheese though.

     @luis_in_brief @sovtechfund Got it. I've often argued here in the EU that we could achieve so much for 1 euro per European/year... But we have to start somewhere.

     @luis_in_brief @sovtechfund I'm in their orbit & they sometimes listen to me, if there is any specific worry I'd love to hear about it!

     @bert_hubert @sovtechfund it's just that we need really broad coverage for the sort of thing they're doing. The amount of money they've committed, and the RFP-driven way of giving it out, is going to solve only a small number of problems. But it's better than nothing, which is what the rest of us are (mostly) doing right now.

     I have concerns about the scalability of the @sovtechfund approach, but while I'm privately concerned about STF, and other governments are loudly concerned about security, the Germans are Getting Stuff Done, or at least ported to Rust: 🤔https://floss.social/@centricular/111782862734264470
