Oh, and for comparison in funding, €614k is 20x what I earned from the first NLNet grant for FediMod FIRES.

Die EU zahlt ein Vermögen für kaputte Software, kritisiert Michiel Leenaars von der niederländischen NLnet Foundation im Interview. Mit seinem Team unterstützt er quelloffene, kostenlose Lösungen, und zwar mit Geldern der EU. Damit könnte aber bald Schluss sein. netzpolitik.org/2025/open-so...

we applied to an NLNet grant for tangled but were summarily rejected. we need a bit more atproto representation because, as you rightly said, NLNet is a little too fedi focused.

Today I’m going to apply for funding for facet development: on my radar I have.. the rust foundation, and NLnet. Should I be talking to anyone else?

For bookkeeping & transparency: NLNet won’t fund the development of a mobile PDS (applied for a grant and got denied).

We applied/ are applying for funding from GNUtaler and Interledger

If you have NLnet or Interledger contacts, put in a good word for us.

The EU is paying a fortune for broken commercial software, criticizes Michiel Leenaars of the Dutch NLnet Foundation in an interview. Together with his team, he supports open-source, free solutions — funded by the EU. But that could soon come to an end.

Further, all development basically depends on grants, because anything with capital is turned away. The fediverse would not exist without NLNet, that's basically all the funding.

Donations only barely cover maintenance.

JBM has been working on refactoring #Kdenlive keyframing system and, along the way, is developing a dopesheet (an interface that displays all parameters in a single timeline). Below is an initial prototype

as of today, github.com/smoltcp-rs/s... follows NLnet Labs' LLM policy (nlnetlabs.nl/llm-policy/). due to the nature of this change, expect some differences in project maintenance going forward
