OFTC.netOSL has been a sponsor of OFTC for a very long time, and they need help.OFTC and many other projects sincerely appreciate their crucial support over the years.

Anthony SoraceThe Open Source Lab at OSU is a really amazing resource. They host VMs and mirroring for the Plan 9 Foundation, which I'm involved in, but also dozens and dozens of other projects.They're also facing a major budget deficit and are at risk of closing.<a href="https://osuosl.org/blog/osl-future/" rel="nofollow noopener" translate="no" target="_blank">https://osuosl.org/blog/osl-future/</a>On the off chance you're connected to anyone (or are someone) who influences large-scale corporate giving, you should encourage them to consider sponsoring the OSL. I'm happy to talk more about them if it'd help.<a href="https://pdx.social/tags/OSUOSL" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#OSUOSL</a>

Michael Downey 🧢🚨 :OSI: The work of <a href="https://fosstodon.org/@osuosl" class="u-url mention" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">@osuosl</a> is at risk as US academic funding faces historic challenges. The Lab hosts infra for over 1000 <a href="https://floss.social/tags/FOSS" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#FOSS</a> projects, and uses the opportunity to train students in critical <a href="https://floss.social/tags/DevOps" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#DevOps</a> skills. Nothing comes close to the value that OSL provides the global <a href="https://floss.social/tags/OpenSource" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#OpenSource</a> community.If you or your employer can help support this critical work, check their website for donation and contact info.:boost_love: <a href="https://floss.social/tags/boostsAppreciated" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#boostsAppreciated</a> <a href="https://osuosl.org/donate" rel="nofollow noopener" translate="no" target="_blank">https://osuosl.org/donate</a><a href="https://floss.social/tags/FreeSoftware" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#FreeSoftware</a> <a href="https://floss.social/tags/FLOSS" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#FLOSS</a> <a href="https://floss.social/tags/OSUOSL" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#OSUOSL</a>

Also there are <a href="https://c.im/tags/ducks" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#ducks</a> all over the place here, but those are mostly not my fault.I came to mastodon from the bird site, like so many, and have found the philosophy and practice here so much more to my open source, <a href="https://c.im/tags/anarchist" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#anarchist</a>, <a href="https://c.im/tags/anticapitalist" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#anticapitalist</a>, <a href="https://c.im/tags/commumity" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#commumity</a> oriented taste, I think I will stay.
