After a great week for Linux, with the releases of Fedora 40 and today Ubuntu 24.04, I would be interested to know which operating system the Fediverse in my "bubble" uses? Linux? Windows? Or macOS or even a BSD? More than one?

Please write in the comments which distribution or version! Thanks for participating and SHARING!

It's so rare to see the difference between #FreeSoftware and #OpenSource explained in "mainstream" technical media.

Thanks for bringing attention to that.

As free money dries up and profits slow, companies slash headcount almost as fast as #opensource community trust.

Well don't use #microsoft products. It is as easy as that...
Btw and of course no #apple products.
