  • The idea of a “distro for EU public sector” is neat, but even the PoC has some flaws when considering technical sovereignty.

    First of all, using Gitlab & Gitlab CI. Gitlab is an American company with most of its developers based in the US. Sure, you could host it by yourself but why would you do it considering Forgejo is lighter and mostly developed by developers based in the EU area?

    The idea of basing it on Fedora is also somewhat confusing. Sure, it’s a good distro for derivatives, but it’s mostly developed by IBM developers. The tech sovereignty argument doesn’t hold well against Murphy’s law.

    Literally me. Had to interview someone for a school project relating to religion a couple years back, so as a non-religious person I interviewed Richard Stallman. Ever since I’ve been using free software for pretty much everything. It has become such an obsession that I’ve gotten work due to it and I’ve forced even a government authority to change their ToS to not violate GPLv3.
