Tommi 🤯<p>Happy <a href="https://ilovefs.org" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank"><strong>I Love Free Software Day</strong></a>! 💕</p><p>Unfortunately, this year I could not join nor organize any in-person celebration, BUT of course I want to share my gratitude to the many, <em>countless</em> <a href="https://pan.rent/tags/FreeSoftware" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>FreeSoftware</span></a> services I don’t merely use, but actually <em>depend</em> on.</p><p>Last year, I decided to focus only on <a href="https://pan.rent/tags/YunoHost" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>YunoHost</span></a>, because it would have been crazy to list all the projects I use and I love.</p><p>This time, even if I will most certainly forget someone, I am challenging myself to mention <em>all</em> the <a href="https://pan.rent/tags/LibreSoftware" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>LibreSoftware</span></a> my life is powered by.</p><p>Without further ado, <strong>THANK YOU</strong> to:</p><ul><li><span class="h-card"
