Dear community, can you please keep your contributions productive? No tax payer money has been spent so far. Have some respect for how other people spent their freetime for what they believe in.

#EU_OS proposes to use #foreman. Foreman contains a flatpak mirror. More at https://docs.theforeman.org/3.14/Release_Notes/index-katello.html#_flatpak_content_support

#Fedora builds its flatpaks from fedora sources. So if flatpaks must be built in the EU, this is a good starting point. In fact, why don't you start already? 🙂 / RR

Hi @rstockm, @timpritlove

ich höre gerade https://freakshow.fm/fs303-your-frustration-however-is-valid

Ich empfehle dir unser Projekt @eu_os einmal anzuschauen. Ganz speziell denken wir hier auch schon an den Anwendungsfall in Schulen. Hier noch die Übersicht von bisherigen Linux-Desktop-Projekten auf https://eu-os.eu/use-cases#notable-migrations an !

Ich habe da schon ein Adressbuch von Interessenten. Vieleicht tauschen wir uns dazu mal aus!

#Flathub has issues with website and API, so that my nightly #EU_OS builds stopped working. 😬

Point taken: mirror important #Flatpak apps to the #katello @foreman repo.

2 days until #EU_OS at Paris #HackDays: A part of the team arrived already in Paris. The planning of the work started in the public Gitlab at https://gitlab.com/eu-os/eu-os.gitlab.io/-/issues/?label_name=hackdays2025

@rriemann brought an old Thinkpad X220 (released 2011) that will serve as a test device until a more modern device has been found!

3 days until #EU_OS at Paris #HackDays: How many hours do you use your #Windows office computer per day? For 6h in front of the computer, this makes 6h·20d·11=1320h per year: Time that users spent in an ecosystem entirely controlled by few powerful, rich people in other countries.

And more and more, #Windows wants to increase this control and extract value for its shareholders. Change of license models to extract annual rents, forced upgrades to #Windows11, etc. 1/2

4 days until #EU_OS at Paris #HackDays: project lead Robert and few supporters start already the weekend before to increase the chances to have a working Proof-of-Concept by the end of Tuesday. Learn more at https://eu-os.eu 1/2

5 days until #EU_OS at Paris #HackDays: The architecture for EU OS must permit a migration phase in which both #Microsoft #Windows and EU OS run in parallel (hybrid setup). This way, organisations can do tests with only few of their staff (e.g. developers/engineers) while keeping everything as is for e.g. HR/business-critical functions. In principle, staffers may also have a Windows and an EU OS laptop at the same time. 1/2

6 days until #EU_OS at Paris #HackDays: EU OS is a so-called atomic operating system that offers interruption free software updates thanks to #bootc (bootable container) technology. While people work, bootc downloads and installs unnoticeable to the user the update. After the next computer restart (trigged by the user), EU OS switches to the new version. If something breaks, the user can roll back. 1/2

7 days until #EU_OS at Paris #HackDays: #EU_OS has a great team setup to test the architecture for a Linux-on-the-desktop setup. Feel free to comment with your experience if you have some!
