Breaking news from the Jeff.pro rumor mill: Facebook might announce a name change, as early as next week. (no kidding! the rumored name change was reported a few hours ago by 'the Verge', a tech blog.) -- JP.

Let us know, in this thread, what you think a good new name for them would be!! 🥳

Special note to the 400 Patriots enrolled in our Linux for Beginners ongoing course, your invitation to tonight's Wednesday Workshop (for 8:00p.m. tonight) was sent out about an hour ago by email.

Check your e-mail box for your invitation to tonight's Workshop, it will be a good one! Topic: Can't take me down! More Linux Super Powers: Host your own "Freedom of Speech" website that can't be taken down, with Wordpress, on up your own VPS server that you control, for pennies on the dollar compared to what your friends pay for web hosting!

Wow, look at this! Look at what the CEO of Twitter, Jack Dorsey tweeted today around noon EST, apparently in response to the rumors that Facebook is going to announce a name change.

Is Jack telling everyone something? What do you think?

I use a pinephone and although it is not an I-phone, it certainly does work!! Yes there is a little more learning, but it's using FOSS and that is 100-times better than the bigtech prison. I guess it depends on your perspective? I'm in this to learn how to do things with FOSS and put bigtech in that little rear-view mirror. Cheers!!

a more fitting name would be 'Central Ignorance Corporation'
isn't that what corrupt companies do when they are in trouble? change their name?
They need to be erased from the internet imo
just sayin 😉

I picked up a new hp laptop 269.00. Can I just download the Linux mint from website? I’m unsure if I should even open the box and start it up.... 🙄... I could use a direction to get started... prayers also🙏🏼

two cheap HP laptops here working well, wifi a bit tricky in one of them. Try a live distro and if things don't work properly, try another distro. Sometimes different flavors of the same distro are ok, depending of your hardware

Microsoft and google want to control and spy on everything about you including your email accounts. And they already do!

Thanks to Author, Rick Donaldson, for this nice article about our Telegram channel! https://rddonaldson.wordpress.com/2021/10/20/fight-back-against-big-tech/

Here is a REPLAY audio recording of Jeff's Telegram voice call from September 23, 2021. On the call, he talked about what is being revealed about closed operating systems, and how to liberate yourself from "big tech" abuses by switching your technology to Linux. Then, two of our chat admins, Will Welker and Vasileios Kontodimas answered many of your questions about Linux.

We reflected on our great Technology chat room, it's one of a kind, already the biggest and best on Telegram after a short while!

Best wishes to you, Patriots, as you set out to discover the very exciting world of Free and Open Source technology. If you, like many other Americans who love their country, are ready to leave the spying and abuses of the "big tech" Windows/MacOS/Android operating systems, Linux is Digital Freedom!

Screenshot from a post by the founder of Telegram, Pavel Durov, Sept. 25, 2021. "Telegram - like all mobile apps - has to follow rules set by Apple and Google in order to remain available to users on iOS and Android."

Regardless of what 'new platforms' are launched, the fight against 'big tech' tyranny will not be won, until Patriots have control of the Operating Systems installed on devices, and a viable, truly independent App Store is available for Mobile.

As the most popular new technology channel on Telegram, more than 40,000 American Patriots are leading the way to escape 'big tech' tyranny as part of the Jeff.pro Free and Open Source Software (FOSS) and Linux community. Learn how to get your Digital Freedom from a founder of one of the top-20 Social Networks in U.S. history!

Our fight will not be complete until American Patriots can never again be silenced, censored, deplatformed, and mobile apps cannot be shut down by Google or Apple's app stores. At Jeff.pro additionally to new social platforms that are being launched, we are taking it to the next level by even building and controlling our own Operating Systems and Mobile App Stores!

Well, yahoo is joining the spy network. Not that they were not already but…. This is what my yahoo app asked me today when I opened it. Can’t wait to get my new phone with a FOSS operating system.

One thing I notice is that it does not say Disallow. It says Ask App Not to Track, this leaves it up to them whither or not to honor your request to not track you.

Their language is always worded in a deceptive way.

I access Yahoo Mail only through an open source client. Evolution on Linux, and K-9 mail on my de-Googled Android.

I only use Linux, and started taking Linux classes through edx. Great program

With recent announcements about important new platforms, tools, and educational apps, American Patriots must build upon this moment to take back all of our digital rights. We must accept that without control of the Operating Systems that make our technology work, this process will not be complete, as they can still shut down our technology at the O.S. level and through the monopolistic, tyrannical Google Play and Apple App stores.
