Windows is full of stuff I never use and only gets in the way of the things I do use. Over bearing, tyrannical, system.

Hey Jeff and other's just wanted to let everyone know that i got recently a pixel 5a.... Then I instantly loaded calyxos on it.... Life couldn't be more simple now... ✌️peace lads

Anybody have any experience with wearables for degoogled android? Was thinking about trying PineTime. Mainly I want to get notifications

Happy Sunday, Friends! 🥳 How's everyone doing on your Free and Open Source Software Journeys? How are you liking the Linux Operating System? Are you learning anything?

Just checking-in! Let me know how you're doing in the comments!

I have been with Apple (Mac) since college (I’m 57 now) and iPhone since it came out. I listened to Jeff’s first talk in September and it definitely peaked my interest. As I listened to him more and started learning about Linux, I jumped on board and tried it because he hit the nail on the head: Big tech can’t be trusted and I don’t want my data harvested anymore! I bought an old MacBook Pro (2015) off Craigslist and it has been my learning ground. I am now switching EVERYTHING (system, files, phone, and all email accounts). I use Ubuntu and love it. I have a de-googled Pixel with Lineage and am learning it. I created my VPS and VPN. All has been a steep learning curve but definitely doable with the teaching and help of Jeff and the team. Like everyone, I don’t have a ton of free time, but we all make happen what is priority to us. Freedom is priority right now. I am basically at a dual system stage and hope to be completely Apple free by the first of the year or so (switching my business accounting will take a bit as I use Quickbooks).
I am so thankful to Jeff, his awesome team, and all in this community for what they have done and what is coming! Keep it up and may Jesus be glorified in all this community accomplishes! 🙏🏼🇺🇸

Together we are making a difference! Since launching on Sept. 11th, 2021, this community has educated and helped more than 5,000 American Patriots move away from 'big tech' computer Operating Systems like the Bill Gates-designed Microsoft Windows, MacOS and Android, to Free and Open Source (FOSS) Linux. Linux is the future!

Thanks to the following Admins, who run and look out for the Jeff.pro Telegram channel: Will, Shane, Slamminbones, Caleb, Vasileios, Patriots Quest, Dragonfly33, Cnturion, Little Hummer, SBHX, and VADCIntel Pvt.

We couldn't do it without your support and enthusiasm! We are proving every week that OS independence from 'big tech' will be possible. Join us in the new year as we continue our fight for your Digital Freedom!

Maybe you've heard someone you know say, at some point:

"I'm not interested in technology."
"I don't really know about technology,"
"I don't have time for that technology stuff,"
"I'm just a simple man, technology isn't for me,"
"That's a problem for the next generation,"
"I'm too old to be interested in technology"

or something similar.

At this very moment, 9 of the 10 most valuable companies in the WORLD -- (not just the U.S.) -- are technology companies, they are destroying small business and altering our society in ways many never expected.

This change has happened in the past ten to fifteen years, while America said the things you read above.

This post is not made to offend anyone. I love my fellow Americans very much.

We say every week on this channel, it's not too late to change the course of history.

But we've got to get more involved. It is clear what happens when We the People blindly trust without being involved.

This group is full of brave, courageous Patriots who are up for the challenge.

We're proving it's possible, every week.

The technology industry in its short history has always been an ebb and a flow, of boom and bust, growth and consolidation phases. At this moment, the political left has a huge head start over the rest of America in the technology sector, and they're milking it for all they can.

Let's take a step back and face reality.

The time for Americans get more involved, (again), with technology is now, before the machines start thinking.

We cannot blindly trust 'big tech' any more with the future of our nation, and the world.

It is one of the most important messages of our time.

"Free and Open Source Software is one of those hobbies, careers or skills in life where more or less everything about it is good. I put it up there with good sports like baseball, exercise like running, or some other knowledge like healthy cooking or farming. When you learn what FOSS is, it's hard not to like it. And it is our way forward, away from 'big tech.'

Software is best when we know what's in it, that's what is so important about the concept of Open Source Software. We have no idea what's inside the code for Windows. Linux is a replacement for Windows, it is a Free and Open Source Operating System for your computer and technology devices."

On this Telegram channel, we teach Patriots how to defeat tyrannical 'big tech' organizations like Microsoft (Windows), Apple, Google, and more, by learning to use Free and Open Source Software (FOSS) and the Linux Operating System.

We go beyond the concept of 'alternate platforms', to the place where you need to be to truly take back control -- the operating system level -- and show you how to get complete control over your technology, once and for all. Linux is the future, it is Digital Freedom!

"In the 1960s and 1970s Dennis Ritchie and Ken Thompson invented Unix, arguably the world’s most important computer operating system. The legacy cannot be overstated, as Unix, its descendants and look-alikes, and its architecture can be found on most computers in existence today. " source: Bell Labs

In recent years, Apple and Google became two of the most valuable companies in the history of the world, with products utilizing Operating Systems (MacOS and Android) built "on top" of "Unix-like" software architecture.

@Jeffrey_Peterson

American computer programmer Dennis Ritchie was a co-inventor of the Unix Operating system. Dennis also invented the "C" programming language. He is one of the most celebrated computer scientists of our time.

Although Dennis did earn degrees in math and physics, he said his most most important education was handed down at home from his father, Alistair E. Ritchie, a career scientist at Bell Labs.

That's right. Dennis Ritchie, mega programmer, co-inventor of UNIX and C, 1983 receipient of the prestigious Turing Award for computing, credited his most important education to home schooling from his Dad.

In our fight against Tyranny, we must remember that Computer Operating Systems are the most important defense that exist against deplatforming, censorship and outright control of our technology devices.

Regardless of what new online platforms and apps are released, control of device Operating Systems will ultimately determine who and what can be shut down and silenced.

The good news is, we do have Digital Freedom now with the Linux Operating System. For the future of our nation, Patriots must continue the development path of Free and Open Source software.

I've been participating in this channel since early September. I have to admit, I'm the type of person that goes through 'phases' of being ultra interested in things. However, the information I have learned here is both very helpful and very sobering. This is not something I will be able to lay aside in a couple of months. The information I have learned has triggered a great sense of responsibility, and now I feel it's my duty to change some things in my life permanently. Not just a phase. Also, the seriousness of the 'surveillance state' is not something we can ignore. It should strike the heart of every American patriot to be an ambassador for change, and an outspoken proponent of FREEDOM in our digital life. My heart has been struck and now I can't shut up! ☺️💪🏻🇺🇸

Make no mistake, in this Great Information War, we also have a roll to play. Stay frosty, Penguins. ❄️🐧

I confess that I was in the "I don't have time for this" camp for the past two decades...I was legitimately busy raising kids in the fear and admonition of the Lord, homeschooling K-12. Then I come up for air in my newly empty nest to find that the culture had shifted on its axis to the point of being nearly unrecognizable. So I am thankful for this group that held my hand while I snuck away from Apple and reclaimed some privacy. There are a myriad of things to set right in our broken world. Time for this retired homeschool mom to get busy back out in the public square. God help us all!🙏

Nice job JP. Trying to keep up with the LMS. You guys are content creating machines. I appreciate the urgency in getting tech freedom back for American patriots. This mission is of the utmost importance. Thanks for everything you are doing!

One thing Jeff talks about on his calls is how he learned a massive movement can start with just a few people.

He built a social network with tens of millions of users, with a team of only a few hundred!
