   Interested in #FOSS but haven't taken the time to explore it? Or familiar but wanting to dive deeper? Have no idea what that is, but are interested in decreasing your reliance on evil corporations?

   If any of the above, check out the #30DayFOSSChallenge. In April I will be posting all about it, and encouraging others to join me. Hope you come along for the journey.

     @nix I read your post about this, and I have a suggestion...

     Mention, and link to, @alternativeto's website. It's a great resource for finding #FOSS applications, especially as you can search for a proprietary app you're currently using, and then see FOSS alternatives you can try instead.

     @nix I've been doing that for 20 years at home: exclusively FOSS software. A revelation was KiCad with FreeCad for electronics design: by learning to use it I could really acquire new skills. There is also FOSS and "Not-so-FOSS": I've moved from Ubuntu to Debian. Other than that I also produce or help produce some FOSS, both hobby and commercially. FOSS creates value to society.
