From Collaborators to Consumers: Have We Killed the Soul of Open Source?

The Open Source community is becoming increasingly polarized. From the "distro wars" to Wayland vs. X11, the spirit of collaboration is fading. Are we shifting from "collaborators" to "consumers", and what can we do to build bridges instead of walls?

FreeBSD Foundation

Big news for FreeBSD laptop users!
Wi-Fi on FreeBSD is finally getting the overhaul it deserves.

✅ Modern driver support (like iwlwifi)
✅ WPA3 + next-gen protocol updates
✅ Up to 10x faster speeds in 14.3
✅ Real progress, real usability

Check out how the FreeBSD Foundation is helping shape a wireless future that just works:

💡 If you've held off on FreeBSD for lack of Wi-Fi support—2025 might change your mind.

From #PlayStation to #routers, you've probably been using #FreeBSD without knowing it
The #OS came first, the foundation later
FreeBSD was officially founded on June 19, 1993, as an evolution of #386BSD, prioritizing performance, stability, and an open development model.
The foundation started in March of 2000, provides financial and legal backing, facilitates infrastructure improvements, and supports FreeBSD advocacy and development.

Let's say I wanted to get into #BSD. My current daily driver is Linux Mint on three machines and I'm by no means an expert, but I'm usually able to fix most problems via search results and forums.

Would #FreeBSD a good starting point to get a comfortable desktop experience going for browsing, mails, updating Hugo sites and 3D printing stuff?

Or should I check out #GhostBSD?

Hey fedi friends, what are the differences in USES and config options listed at #freshports for a #FreeBSD #port? I am familiar with USE in #Gentoo #Linux, which seem to be the config options here? For #Gentoo it is very common to use different USE settings for a packages, but for #FreeBSD I read from porter's handbook there are not many USE items and they looked different from the term in #Gentoo. I am still trying to wrap my head around what is happening that whenever I try to build a port, like #vim or #git in tiny flavors, I constantly noticed #Perl #Bash #lua #Rust #Python and all other seemingly unrelated stuff get pulled in. #BSD #RunBSD #Unix #FOSS

@ramin_hal9001 except that's yet another package and yet another config file and thus requires #Guix to support the target system. Which may not be the case (i.e. ancient versions of #Solaris or some #BSD-based distro or some weird embedded linux device...

  • So whilst that may be attractive to some (and I don't deny the fact that it has merits) I don't think that me publicly hating #YAML and working on a #GNUfree toybox+musl/linux distro is the target audience of it.

I mean if someone wants to port guix to #OS1337 they are happily invited to do so and I'll gladly accept that contribution, but it's currently not on my agenda...

I am building gcc-15.1.0 on my iMac G4 (Tiger) machine. It is on stage2, which is a good sign.

It will include C, C++, Fortran, Modula-2, Objective C, and Objective C++ compilers.

It will depend on my new PowerPC Mac OS X modernization library, libpcc: github.com/ibara/libppc

I'll write a blog post about how to use it once it is all compiled; my goal is to produce a turnkey solution that just works(TM), including assembler, linker, and other utilities, as recent as possible for PowerPC.

And libppc can be instantly extendable to incorporate more C11 and later features. Hopefully others in the retro Mac community are interested in building that up with me.

My ultimate goal is to build some flavor of WebKit some day and have a modern web experience (even if slow, and possibly using X11). But in the meantime we will probably build a lot of excellent modern software to keep these machines going.

Well said!

Like, "Here's a #BSD. You may or may not even get a GUI, but everything is beautifully documented and fairly understandable."

Vs, "Here's a Linux. It's got a gorgeous interface hiding a eldritch horror of corporate-spewed components and dozens of millions of lines of code complexity."

Disclaimer: I use, daily-drive, and love Linux. Some days, I just want to use the pretty GUI and not worry about the underparts. But the underparts are there, and getting more complex and unwieldy by the hour.

Another example: look at the Harrier "Jump Jet" vs. the F-35.

The Harrier's RCS (reaction control system) is very simple, just a series of jet exhaust ports directly linked (hydraulically??) to the main yoke. The F-35 is an incredibly complex system of avionics.

I'm not saying that an F-35 could vertically land an F-35 or anything silly like that, but it's an order of magnitude easier to fly (AIUI) than the Harrier, which requires constant input from the pilot.

So often, simplicity and elegance in the system (e.g., Harrier, BSD) is inversely linked to external/surface ease-of-use (e.g., F-35, Linux).

(If anyone is familiar with the F-35 or Harrier and would like to correct any factual errors (considering my understanding of those systems are less than surface/casual), I would absolutely appreciate it)
