This server runs the snac software and there is no automatic sign-up process.

# Funding Free / open source software: what can I, personally, do differently?
Almost five years on, and I don't think that much has changed.
I wish that there was an easier way of funding Free software.
Yesterday, as I sat here, using a laptop running on Free software written and maintained by volunteers, to connect, by means of a secure tunnel formed by Free software written and maintained by volunteers, to multiple servers, all running Free software written and maintained by volunteers, to apply patches prepared urgently by volunteers to resolve security vulnerabilities, I felt *incredibly* grateful for every single one of those volunteers, who makes the fact that I could do *any* of this possible.
Thank you, genuinely.

Meine #Krankenkasse hat mich zum Glück noch nicht mit einer #App belästigt. Ich mache da alles mit #Firefox auf #Linux. Sogar ohne #SMS.
