@mho@social.heise.de @parismarx@mastodon.online coole Idee. Ich komme auf 65% 🇺🇸 🫣 Aber was mich irritiert: sind nicht auch Opera oder Vivaldi im Kern Chromium und damit US? Und ist Open Source aus US = BigTech?

@mho@heise.de @parismarx@mastodon.online I don't think attaching a single country flag to large Open Source projects is a good idea. These projects are so international, it doesn't really matter where they were founded. Even if they have a legal entity in some country, it typically does not have a lot of influence over the project itself.

@mho@social.heise.de @parismarx@mastodon.online thanks, it's good to visualize this. What do you think about adding cash unde payment options. I realize it's not tech, yet I increasingly go back to cash because I want to avoid us companies seeing how I spend money, and supporting them.

@mho@social.heise.de @parismarx@mastodon.online Using XMPP and Matrix for messaging on a daily basis with different FOSS client and server software. Some servers are hosted in Germany. This gets complicated quickly with no easy answer which country the service comes from. 🤔

@mho@social.heise.de Not sure it would be wise to share the result publicly, ready for harvesting by interested parties. But it might be interesting to have the stats calculated for other countries, too. Also, how are forks to be treated? In general, the landing page of your website might even be more useful as is, providing a quick overview for people looking for FLOSS, or products, or services that don't come from specific countries. @parismarx@mastodon.online

Wow, so much feedback 😱 Thank you all! We have a family reunion, so I'll have to look up most of it later. But I will consider everything, adding E-Mail is in top of the list. And I'll have to learn to use Git, there came some stuff, too.
