I just used for the first time #GNUtaler to pay my Mate at #Datenspuren. GNUtaler is a #FreeSoftware secure electronic payment system funded under the #EU's Next Generation Internet programme #NGI which the EU just decided to cut by €27 mio.

The payment worked awesome - and Free Software needs sustainable, long-term financial support! This is what we at the @fsfe demand from the EU, to ensure Europe's technological independence.

Please support our work!

Just an idea: if the EU (e.g. the @EUCommission) could be convinced to publish its videos primarily on a Peertube instance (and only additionally on YouTube), maybe they would be more motivated to fund Peertube.

"The EU’s #NGI programme has supported free, open source software for years. But now a silent death seems to be looming: An internal document suggests that financing may soon end. Developers are surprised and call for the programme’s survival."
