With the world changing around us, many governments and organisations are trying to reduce their dependency on tech giants. Here's an update on how one German federal state is moving 30,000 PCs to LibreOffice (and longer-term, Linux): https://blog.documentfoundation.org/blog/2025/03/13/updates-on-schleswig-holstein-moving-to-libreoffice/ #foss #opensource #freesoftware
@libreoffice That's very good news! The big question will be: how will they move public administration packages towards platform agnosticism and ideally FOSS. There are some small software sheds that produce very questionable stuff (PC Wahl anyone) and who struggle even before moving to a FOSS model. Really curious and keeping fingers crossed 🤞
@0xDEADBEEF Das stimmt nicht. Microsoft Deutschland ist seit seiner Gründung 1983 in München. @libreoffice
