Hey friends! I wasn't sure of the best place to let you know this but it looks like the certificate for download.gimp.org expired mere hours ago! I thought you'd want to know.
Just got my valentine postcard sent by Hackerspace Nijmegen and the FSFE!
This stuff is great for motivation, be kind and appreciative of your fellow contributors

Ada & Zangemann was really enjoyable to our kids. Nice one and thanks heaps!
Sabato a Bergamo abbiamo festeggiato il software libero #ilovefs con il BgLug, il #CircoloDeiNarratori, #fsfe e i bambini della Biblioteca Tiraboschi.
I bambini hanno conosciuto Ada e con lei hanno fatto lampeggiare il loro primo led. Stickers e caramelle al lampone per tutti!

#ilovefs day, gran bella giornata in quel di #Este, mattina in piazza ad incontrare i curiosi, nel pomeriggio talk sul software libero e i progetti minori ma meritevoli. Abbiamo concluso con un quiz a premi e i vincitori si sono portati a casa il libro "Liberare il mio smartphone per liberare me stesso" di @kenobit e le zine di consolazione per gli altri :)
It looks like we had a pretty even split of answers for when #ilovefs day was first started! We wish it had started as early the '90s, but the very first I Love Free Software Day was celebrated in 2012.
Thank you for playing #trivia with us this week we hope you found lots of ways to celebrate why you love free software last week.
I Love Free Software Day 2025 już za nami. Nie spodziewaliśmy się aż tak wysokiej frekwencji! Ogromne podziękowania dla wszystkich uczestników i prelegentów - za obecność i świetną atmosferę!

We are still celebrating #ilovefs day with some events in Italy and Albania today!
While we gather all the pictures from the different events, we wanted to share with you an amazing video we received from the mother (and singer) of our colleague @sofiaritz

There are so many ways to say #thankyou to your favourite #FreeSoftware projects, what is yours?
Das "I Love Free Software" Event der fsfe bei Netways in Nürnberg am 13.02.2025:
Bei diesem Event der #fsfe waren am Donnerstagabend rund 40 Leute anwesend. Es gab einige Vorträge zu u.a. OpenCloud, Suse und systemd. Der Abend wurde von Bonnie Mehring von der fsfe moderiert und es konnten nebenbei neue Kontakte geknüpft werden.
Auch wir konnten einigen Anwesende auf unser Angebot z.b. beim Theo hinweisen. War ein schöner Abend und einen großen Dank an die fsfe und die Orga.

#ILoveFS !
Free (Libre!) software is what allows people to contribute to a better world: working together, beyond financial interests, in transparency and in the benefit of the community.
It has always been essential, and it is even more today, with extremism, fascism and populism knocking at and forcing all of doors.
Thank you #opensource #gpl @rms !
