We're a small but mighty team based in Montreal 🇨🇦, and building a secure and private communication app like Jami takes more than just code. It takes a dedicated team with a shared vision, a healthy dose of humor (seriously, check out those smiles! 😄), and a passion for collaboration (both within our team and with the amazing Free software community 🌐). #OpenSource #Privacy #TogetherWeBuild

Shout out to Text Pieces! I needed to URL-encode a big ugly string (creating a template form from URL parameters, yay!) and yep, sure enough, it made it stupidly easy.
The next time you need to encode, transform, or convert some text on Linux, reach for this pretty little offline app instead of pasting your data into some random website. 👍

I'll gladly join the Month of #LibreOffice 😃. I've been using it for years, both private and for work. And guess what, I'm good even when working with MS-using colleagues.
Even my grandpa uses it happily. It took him years to realise it's not MS Office, because it worked just as well. If he can manage it, anyone can.
So why I love it? It does what it needs to do and does it well, and it's #free and #opensource, and actively developed and improved. What more can you need?
Next Friday May 31 at 17:30 UTC we're ending the month with our Community Office Hours all about the Thunderbird release process — from how releases are staged now to future possibilities. @wsmwk and Daniel Darnell will be our guests to answer our questions and yours! ✨
