Proposing a new #LibreMonday recurring #hashtag. Who's in?
The idea: #showcase free/libre and open source source (#FLOSS) projects that you like, giving a screenshot and basic information + links.
This should help many of us #Mastodon users discover hidden gems of the #FreeSoftware ecosystem.
Please boost 🍍 and give it a go!
@akien nice. now we even have 2 themes for the #monday
#AnarchyMonday and #LibreMonday
We might can combine the topics from time to time.
Like which #libre tools you're using for organizing within your network and so on?
Seems clear that monday is the day about #freedom :)
(...like any other day also)
@paulfree14 Oops, I had searched for trending hashtags to avoid a conflict on #Monday, but I missed #AnarchyMonday... but yeah, I guess we can find some interesting combinations :P
And I guess it's pretty natural to be thinking about freedom on Mondays, when going back to $dayjob after the weekend ;)
@akien yes that was our motivation of choosing monday for such thing :)
...it's still very unpopular, but already the 3. #AnarchyMonday ppl participated.
Idea would be to maintain over time for everyday a specific hashtag.
guess having 2 on one day is better then having none :)
May ppl like to switch to another day, mabe not. time will tell.
@akien Bah, I really should document my libraries so I can do post it here. :)
@akien well I'm already participating in the hashtag of #AnarchyMonday or #PeoplesMonday on the bird site how people want to call it, but I have like no problems with Friday personally.
@akien @Killervalentine3
friday is #fediverseFriday :)
and I would definatly keep freedom talks on monday as it has historical tradition and is the day a lot of ppl entering into a dictatorship like system
@akien Okay, I'm in!
Here's a hidden gem for video game authors: Dr Petter's sfxr. http://www.drpetter.se/project_sfxr.html
8 bit video game sound effect generator! And it's free software. Also an interesting article about sound effect synthesis http://www.drpetter.se/article_sound.html
#LibreMonday (barely in time)
#LMMS is a loop based, music composition tool. It features core functionality such as loop and piano roll editors, a mixer. It has full midi support, comes with a library of samples and demos, it has several built in plugins including synths, support for soundfonts, etc. LMMS works with Linux, Windows and Mac.
(@akien thanks for the excellent idea)
@eylul also you may like to participate in #AnarchyMonday as happend to on the same day then #libreMonday
MComix is a comic viewer. It unpacks all the archives, finds the next chapter just by scrolling down, and fits everything in the right dimension.
#LibreMonday
cum (comic updater, mangafied) is a tool for automated manga downloads from various online manga aggregate sites. Perfect to get things you can read in MComix.

@akien OSS/GNU stuff for Microsoft or... ?
I think the best thing for anyone to do would be to install gnu/linux or bsd (or a few others).
Until I know better what you want, I'm including a screenshot of the graphical software installer in Linux Mint. 86,000 pkgs available at a click. All digitally signed and verified and free.
No more installing from random links on the internet!
@gemlog Well I want free and open source software, regardless on what premises they're built upon - so yeah FLOSS that runs on proprietary Windows is fine too. Showcasing a libre GNU/Linux distro is also good, that's free software :)
@akien I'll see what I can contribute.
@akien I will try to remember to do it next monday
@akien I tried promoting #workflowwednesdays to kind of do this. I'm in for #LibreMonday and #showcase though since it seems to have picked steam.
Currently finishing a short recap of a music festival in #Kdenlive.
@akien @eylul has enjoyed a similar theme as well as #artwithopensource
@akien I loved the idea! I have shared a link and boosted many more! I'll be sure to add a reminder for every monday to post at least about one software I'm using!
@akien I love this idea.
First one today: https://framapiaf.org/@akien/1346270
