❤️ Thank you to the #Archlinux Wiki maintainers! ❤️

#Maintainers in general, and maintainers of documentation most of the time get way too little recognition for their contributions to #SoftwareFreedom.

ArchWiki is one of the pearls of the internet! That's why I dedicated my this year's #ilovefs post to the #ArchWiki maintainers!

❤️ When I started using #GNU / #Linux one of the most important tools for me were the great books you got together with the #SUSE CDs and floppies.

The documentation was really great for me as a beginner and enabled me to get deeper into the community for #softwarefreedom.

Thanks to all contributors involved creating such great documentation, and to the @opensuse community for maintaining such important work! ❤️

A big thank you to the @libreoffice community for enabling companies, public administrations, nonprofits and individuals to run a office suite that grants them the rights to use, study, share, and improve it. ❤️

How would we be able to open and edit all those proprietary doc, docx, xls, xlsx, ppt, pptx files without you?

Despite all the challenges ahead, please keep up focusing on your mission for #softwarefreedom 🫶 #ilovefs

❤️ Happy #ILoveFS Day! And with this we have a special #SoftwareFreedom #Podcast 🎧 episode to mark this special day with something nice. For our I Love #FreeSoftware Day podcast episode @annabonnie spoke with @rincewind the @monitoringplugins 🎧
