Do we have FSCI blog planet?
by Sahil Dhiman 21 Feb '21

21 Feb '21

Hello, I remember seeing in once in the matrix room a discussion about FSCI's planet. Is it still active and what's the link for it? An online search only returns this [1] or the other URL for the same page [2]. [1]: https://blog.fsci.org.in/ [2]: https://blog.fsci.in/ Cheers! -- Sahil Dhiman https://blog.sahilister.in/

A proposal to post on why should educational institutes use only free software
by Ravi Dwivedi 18 Feb '21

18 Feb '21

Dear All, I think we should write about why educational institutes should use only free software. The goal of the article will be to raise awareness on the dangers of proprietary software. Why educational institutes should use only free software? Suggest replacement of the already used software and how they give users freedom. For details on conducting lectures via free software, link to this article <https://fsf.org.in/article/better-than-zoom/> . I have started a thread here <https://codema.in/d/fmCJHPvr/write-about-why-educational-institutes-should-…>. Please send your comments/suggestions. -- Ravi Dwivedi My PGP key https://keys.openpgp.org/vks/v1/by-fingerprint/430F5BE41D681CD30711B9AE4D03…

by Ravi Dwivedi 15 Feb '21

Dear all, I propose that we post about how people can judge instant messengers.I have started a thread on codema regarding the same https://codema.in/d/CTeAEuGh/our-stand-on-ethical-instant-messengers . The current write-up is a bit WhatsApp centred and also explains the concepts of decentralization, federation and peer-to-peer communications. This is just a first draft so I am sure it needs a lot of improvements. Please post your comments/suggestions regarding the same. -- Ravi Dwivedi
