Hi folks, I'm trying to jumpstart federation on my little gotosocial instance and get a more full feed of things to read and interact with.
I could use your help. If you could boost this, I would appreciate it. If you see this and favorite it, I will follow you if your interests seem to align with mine.
I'm not asking for follows... rather I'm asking for you to help me shout out into the ether that I'M looking for people to follow. My main interests are going to be hashtagged below.
By the way, the way hashtags work here is that currently, if I search, I only see what my server is already knows about... which would mean just the folks I follow, since I'm a single-user instance. Not very helpful 
I will also be using one of my apps that can load the main feed from other servers, to see if I see something interesting. If you see a follow from me and come here to check me out... I mean you no harm and I come in peace.
Thanks all!

Interesting read from openSUSE!

Is there any OSS or FOSS e-mail client, for Linux or Windows that has native ActiveSync support (not EWS)? 
I can't seem to find any, and considering it's been around "for a while", I would have thought there would be some (yes, I'm aware of all the fabulous *DAV variants, thanks).
(I mean, there are plenty of e-mail servers that run on Linux, for example, that has server-side support for it.)
Well, published the notes from the conference I went to last month in Christchurch.
If you're interested in OSS in Aotearoa, especially in the sciences, take a look? Not perfect, but a good start I think.
Thanks to all of the contributors who helped. @jduckles, looking at you.

Does any of you know about this and also use it professionally and if so in what context and how? Honestly, I'm standing up a little.
