🚀 NEW on We ❤️ Open Source 🚀
Open source maintainers do not always need more free tools. Sometimes they need funding, flexibility, and space to keep critical projects healthy.
Erik Thorelli explains why CodeRabbit is putting cash behind sustainability, how AI can help with code review without replacing developers, and why exploring tools is still one of the best ways to learn.

Nekogram, fork of the Open Source messaging app Telegram used by journalists and privacy activists, had just been discovered to include spyware. The malicious code sent all user's private phone numbers to the developer, a Chinese man nicknamed NekoWorkshop (alias tehcneko). The devteam publicly admitted the presence of the spyware code, then started reacting violently against the userbase.

Improving documentation in #OpenSource projects opens doors for new contributors and strengthens the communities working on those technologies. There are still a few days to apply for the 2026 #SovereignTechFellowship documentation sprint. Up to six technical writers can apply to make short-term, focused contributions to critical open digital infrastructure.
🎗️ Apply by Monday, April 6, 2026, to make knowledge more accessible in #FOSS!

Something I've been most surprised by while trying NetBSD is how much thought has been put into creating a high-quality TTY experience.
On Linux, trying to create a functional TTY work environment feels like a a hack. Things often don't work right or require lots of tinkering.
Here, everything just works. Straight out of the installer, I have 256 colour support, audio functionality, and the brightness/volume control keys just... work. No configuration. It's fantastic
DokuWiki is now available on PikaPods! 📝
If you want a wiki that stays out of your way, DokuWiki is a great choice. It stores data in plain text files rather than a database. This makes it incredibly fast, easy to move, and readable even without the software. Perfect for project documentation, manuals, or a personal knowledge base.
