Gotta make space for dat AI stuff ya know. Cuz thats the future n shit.
Here is a list of funded projects:
If anybody wants to look depper into their claim of “proven success”.
I browsed through it shallowly and didn’t find any project that I know/use, nor were the projects which I have randomly clicked on any interesting, when they had a working, usable result at all and not just designs or proof of concepts.
I know it sounds cynical, but I honestly don’t mean it negatively. I just wanted to look a bit into it because their claims seemed without substance to me.
But as I said I only looked at it very shallowly so far.
Some projects I recognize/like:
- kbin
- bcachefs
- Briar
- Castopod
- Collabora Online and LibreOffice
- CryptPad
- DAVx⁵
- Diesel
- Jitsi
- ForgeFed
- Forgejo
- Friendly Forge Format (F3)
- Funkwhale
- fwupd
- Matrix
- KDE
- Lemmy
- Mastodon
- Misskey

What a disappointment. The value of OSS should be obvious to all by now. We have too many people in power who don’t know anything about the technology they regulate.
