The funding of critical open-source projects of our everyday lives has becond increasingly important. The Sovereign Tech Fund has set out to improve the situation with various programs that assist these projects as @polexa explains.
We're thrilled being joined by @bagder who shares his experiences with maintaining the #curl project and the STF.

@markuswerle @jakob @pluralistic This is how I interpret the situation: #GitHub offers open source programs free access to GitHub actions today exactly as it did in the past. This access is limited in CPU performance and parallelism. It always was. All free CI services do this.
The #curl project was bumped to a fancier account to give us more actions powers: more CPU and more parallelism.
That is them doing us a favor and them supporting us, not the other way around.

I have this slide showing the 101(!) operating systems people have reported #curl to run on.
I now have a customer call scheduled about porting it to a 102nd...
In 2022 I became #curl's 1000th commit author and was congratulated as such until I had to confess to @bagder that I wasn't: I had used two distinct email addresses and was thus only the 999th.
The record (daniel.haxx.se/blog/2022/01/30…) doesn't reflect this, but it is my #sundayConfession
According to @bagder the stubborn way the #OpenSSL project is handling #QUIC implementation is directly responsible for delaying HTTP/3 adoption (1), and I tend to agree. When the project rejected the community QUIC patches and decided to go with their own design, it wasn't difficult to predict problems. This was proven right by the massive feature gaps (2) and performance issues (3) discovered by @icing when trying to marry OpenSSL QUIC to #curl. Even with API fixes released in version 3.3 the implementation is still inferior, and there is no good solution in sight.
