🇪🇺 The Next Generation Internet (NGI) programme, vital for Europe’s digital sovereignty, is missing from Horizon Europe’s 2025 draft.
Since 2020, NGI has funded over 500 projects, including Castopod, supporting free software and digital commons.
Its removal threatens innovation, collaboration, and the sustainability of Europe’s open-source ecosystem.
NGI has proven essential for fostering technological independence and interoperability.

Ich hab mal mit @Castopod experimentiert und die Testinstanz der #subscribe11 meine zwei Folgen "friends of illumos" importieren lassen.
Was soll ich sagen, fabelhaft das Projekt!
Danke an alle Macher und Unterstützer!

Une option géniale pour un #podcast qui est aussi un carnet de voyage : la possibilité d'associer chaque épisode au lieu qui lui est consacré. Sénégal, Mali, Burkina, Niger, mon voyage se dessine sur la page cartographie ❤️ Merci @Castopod Vive le #podcast2pointzero @samaafrica #SamaAfrica podcast.cy-real.com/map

I would never have been able to start @flintadndsilicon@podcast.ergaster.org without OBS, @kdenlive and @Castopod

Kdenlive, OBS, Castopod and many more open source tools make our words free. We can write, record, edit, publish, reach new people, get our message across.

Because they’re accessible to the masses, they’re fundamental democracy enablers.

@gglnx Es war meine erste #subscribe aber in meiner Wahrnehmung hat sich die freie Szene der #subscribe11 weiterhin geöffnet und dadurch neue Impulse gebracht. Viele Menschen insbesondere die Perspektiven von @marialorenzbokelberg und @benjaminbellamy von @Castopod haben meine „politische“ Sichtweise auf Podcasting erweitert. Ich weiß jetzt „besser“ meine Haltung in diesem Punkt zu vertreten.

Castopod :podcasting2: boosted

@Castopod Thanks a lot for sharing! 🎉
