I proposed an approach where #FOSDEM can provide better support for #accessibility

Great post by Dries https://dri.es/funding-open-source-like-public-infrastructure

It is high time that
#OpenSource is recognized for what it is, critical digital infrastructure!

I was happy to be able to contribute a small amount to this post.

How many organizations? How many people? Still cling to their Twitter / X accounts because they fear giving up the followers they struggled to gain?

How many are there simply because it takes energy to do anything else?

How do we change that?
