The #school my son attends to gets new devices from the state of #Niedersachsen. The devices are a collection of #iOS, #windows and #chromeos.
His school - until know - promoted and supported using #linux and #opensource.
Now it is completely unclear whether it will be possible to use and support these devices with linux.

Just donated to the effort to improve sound quality on the #Librem5 when using #pipewire: https://opencollective.com/dephcom/projects/pipewire-echo
I'd be even more happy about the approach of sponsoring development through the community if this donation would be accepted as being for an official non-profit organization accepted as such in Germany.
Giving for #OpenSource should be respected as a a benefit to the public and appreciated by the government by whatever means they do this for other purposes (in Germany it's possible to declare such donations for reducing taxes to pay).
Hey #MobileLinux community - if everybody gives a little there'll be a fair pay for someone doing this work.
