I use an RSS feed for news, and I’m sure I’m not the only one here on the Fediverse who appreciates the convenience it offers, because it helps me stay informed in a way that suits my preferences.
How do you keep up with the important topics that matter to you?
I’d love to hear your thoughts!

I started regularly donating about a year ago. I am now supporting 8 different projects with 20,77€ per month, and it didn't hurt at all.
Why pay for something free? Because free software only exists because other people already paid for it. Someone has to do it. It's time to do your part!
If you can afford a subscription service, then you probably can afford a little donation, too. Start with 0.1% of your income.

I recently learnt that @Codeberg has its own badge generator to let you make custom "Get it on Codeberg" badges! 
Thanks to it being under an open licence, I was able to remix it for the #BananaHackers store for #KaiOS, which has so far been lacking a badge 🍌

'It is fine not to like a piece of Free software' and other oft-unstated FOSS-related freedoms
“Free software”, according to the FSF’s definition, embodies four freedoms.There are plenty more than that - or, at least, many freedoms which are inherent in, or arise from, those four freedoms - most of which go unstated most of the time.
This is far from a complete list, but rather my jottings based on ponderings and observations from the last few days, across a couple of different (intentionally unstated / unlinked here) things.
