I am currently writing a list of good #FreeSoftware solutions for #remote #working in the @fsfe wiki:
https://wiki.fsfe.org/Activities/FreeSoftware4RemoteWorking
I still need to polish the wording but if you already have input for me about what is missing, more sources or any other feedback is very welcome.

Feels like a good time to work for a company that has a fully #remote policy available and that produces team #collaboration tools that enable for example more efficient remote #work.
Lack good tooling? Check out https://modular.im (powered by #Matrix) which comes with #Jitsi powered video #conferencing. And it's all #federated, so you can collaborate with any team using the #Matrix protocol, and beyond with the help of bridges to #Slack and such!

It seems a lot of people are finding out about http://CryptPad.fr now that their team has transitioned to remote work. Coincidentally, we've been working on a major upgrade to our encrypted kanban app featuring a markdown editor and tagging system for all your tasks. #WFH
Members of Congress have mounted a major threat to your freedom of speech and security online. Senators Lindsey Graham (R-SC) and Richard Blumenthal (D-CT) recently introduced a bill that would undermine key protections for Internet speech in U.S.act.eff.org
Hey all, we've got a small budget for @moodlenet security/privacy consulting. Would appreciate pointers to anyone with the chops (including #ActivityPub experience) who might be able to help audit our repos in the next few weeks/months 🙂
