Software Freedom Law Center  

The easiest way to understand #license terms is to begin with why, rather than what. The #GNU licenses have been written by #developers and their lawyers for #application by #developers without any aid or assistance from lawyers, for the purpose of assuring these #freedoms to all their #users, and all #users of modified versions or new #programs ... If a GPLā€™d #program can be enhanced with proprietary #code...then intentions of developers to protect usersā€™ rights will be frustrated.

#TIL how to connect to #Freenode #IRC channels via a #Matrix client. In my case, #Element.io.

Mind. Blown.

This addresses so many of the drawbacks of IRC while still allowing you to use IRC.

- Multi-device support? Check.
- Retained and synced history across all devices? Check.
- Integrated photo and file sharing? Check.
- No need to maintain your own server or keep your computer on 24/7? Check.

#Technology is amazing. People are amazing.

@amolith I'm hopefully getting the Pixel 3a soon. I'll put GrapheneOS on it obviously. That being said, PinePhone would be my second choice.
