@nemo I think we need to convince exam boards such as https://qualifications.pearson.com/en/qualifications/edsq/entry-level-and-level-1-in-eds.html who run basic skills courses to include proper mention of the fediverse, they mention Linux at least in the latest draft spec. I am trying to get in touch to correct that to GNU / Linux.
@nemo This may help to explain about free software (as in freedom) which is where GNU comes from
