@kirschner If institutions like @fsfe are unclear about the term, how we expect people to understand the difference?
The issue is not the 2% engaging in this discussion. The problem is to not distinguish our movement from the 1%[i].
CEO's, like Musk[ii] and Zuckerberg[iii] have took over the term, because they took advantage of the ambiguity of the term #opensource
We need to clearly differentiate from big tech and retaliate with #freesoftware !

Our sister organisation the @fsf has published its evaluation of the #Llama 3.1 Community
License Agreement.

This is not a #FreeSoftware (#OpenSource) license.

Read more why it does not qualify https://www.fsf.org/blogs/licensing/llama-3-1-community-license-is-not-a-free-software-license

@kirschner I don't think that we must confuse #FreeSoftware with #OpenSource [1]
We all agree with @fsf about Llama not being free, but we must wait for a statement from @osi to claim that it is not OpenSource...

56% of you really know your #freesoftware terminology history! The term "free software" is indeed an 80's baby. Thanks for playing and stay tuned for today's #ilovefs trivia question!

Arti 1.4.0 dedicated to the memory of @lunar :ancomheart: https://blog.torproject.org/arti_1_4_0_released/ #tor #freesoftware

Happy #50forFOSS day.

This time around I donated to GIMP, an image editing tool I've used since high school. It's a fantastic piece of software, and even though I don't work in design or photography, I've used it more times than I can count—converting and resizing images, creating visual aids, making memes, it does everything.

Big shoutout to @GIMP for being my go-to for well over a decade.
