Seem to have lost my debit card, which would be another verification method. Can't get it replaced until I can login... or call, I guess. Fun stuff.
This petition wants contributing to Free Software to be legally and officially recognized as volunteering in Germany on the same level as youth work or ambulance service:
openpetition.de/petition/onlin…
This would bring fiscal and funding advantages for FLOSS organizations and the volunteers themselves.
If you are a German citizen, please sign the petition and let's get our volunteers the recognition they deserve!

Didn't semaphore stop working? This domain fails for me: semaphore.social/
Also, it's starting to lag in features: no toot editting, no language choice for posting, etc.

#FOSDEM was exhausting but amazing. Was lovely to see so many #IzzyOnDroid users and to hear how much people love #Droidify and #NeoStore!
Learning more about #SHIFT and #BlissLabs was great too, what great projects to share our stand with!
And y'all are sticker monsters, I started running out of #Catima stickers so much faster than expected but it was lovely to hear how many people love the project :)
Thank you all for making #FOSDEM2026 this fun and memorable! :)

The title of my ending keynote at FOSDEM February 1, 2026. As the last talk of the conference, at 17:00 on the Sunday lots of people had already left, and presumably a lot of the remaining people were quite tired and ready to call it a day.daniel.haxx.se
