#ILoveFreeSoftware, you love #FreeSoftware. Let's get that down. Most of the time you don't even notice that you're using a device running a 
#Linux kernel, 
#GNUtils or services like 
#ApacheWebserver, 
#Matrix etc. as they just work and don't get in your way; don't bother you reading ancient 📜 #EULA; don't track you ...
But have you ever said thank you to all the 
contributors supporting the projects and sustaining #SoftwareFreedom?! If not, then today's your lucky day. 
Create a sharepic via @fsfe's https://sharepic.fsfe.org/#ilovefs tool and use the #ILoveFS hashtag to show your appreciation. Additionally, spend some time looking up the #Fediverse handle of your favorite projects and mentioned them.
Happy I 🧡 Free Software Day!
Danke für #FreeSoftware - mein Arbeits Alltag wäre nicht der gleiche ohne #OpenSource
Ganz besonders Dankbar bin ich für #LibreOffice, #Firefox, #Thunderbird, #Nextcloud, #Wordpress & #KDEnlive und so viele weitere Projekte wie #Signal

Fediverse! You've done an incredible job getting our number down to $12,233! Can we raise that today? I think we can!
We don't have tote bags or mugs, but we do have t-shirts for our Sustainers, and, most importantly, every donation is a step forward for #softwarefreedom! We are a lean organization - no development staff, just people who care so much about free software that work as hard as we can to make real incremental progress every day for this cause.

Unfortunately going with "permissive" license is not really being generous: it is giving legal justification to others to use your code to exploit users.
As I personally look at Free Software from the "consumer protection" angle, I don't think the so-called "permissive" licenses are ever a good idea.

This is the result of advocacy & community building.
