Föderation EN Sa 20.07.2024 11:51:05 @nixos_org @nlnet through @NGIZero enables development work on #NixOS https://discourse.nixos.org/t/is-summer-of-nix-worth-the-money/43856 This investment in the ecosystem is important. |
Föderation EN Sa 20.07.2024 11:55:29 @nixos_org @nlnet @NGIZero @EC_NGI That investment means that @librecast is packaged for #NixOS. That investment also means that other NGI funded packages are in NixOS. Everyone gets this third party support. A packager for a distribution isn't just a benefit individual projects. A packager will help many other projects be part of a distribution. |
Föderation EN Sa 20.07.2024 12:19:27 All of that investment in our ecosystem is under threat. With @EUCommission not allocating budget to help fund that, many projects will be looking at a tough few years. As competition for the remaining crumbs of funding increases there's less pie to go round. Less diversity in the funded tech, because the grassroots won't be funded. I'm glad @hackstub made us aware of the risk. Start looking around your ecosystem. Who's at risk? https://www.theregister.com/2024/07/17/foss_funding_vanishes_from_eus/ |
