I love free software day
Today it is I love free software day, a day to celebrate free software and why software freedom is important. I love free software day
Free software does not just mean free as in cost, free software gives us the freedom to Share, Modify, study and use software as we want to. This is important as knowing how software works helps, for example with transparency (what is it actually doing?). By being able to study how it works, having access to the code and the ability to modify we can change the software to our needs, so helps with translations for example. We can then share freely with others passing on that right to others so they, if they choose, can do the same.
