#ShowYourWorkspace somehow, its gotten prettier even though its remained just as messy as last time.
Welcome to the control center of my #Linux #floss #EDM production studio.
COVID tracking apps are unproven, untested technology. No one should be compelled to download one, including university students https://www.eff.org/deeplinks/2020/07/university-app-mandates-are-wrong-call
Want to try a de-googled device, but are afraid your "most needed" apps might refuse to work? Take a look at Plexus to find out whether your fear is justified:

First off, I love #music and life and enjoy encouraging others to do the same :) I also enjoy #privacy & #security, which is why I chose to use this instance.
