## Blog
### Open Source Nonprofits & Community
- [Prosthetics that don't betray](https://ergaster.org/posts/2025/02/28-prosthetics-that-dont-betray/): Computers and smartphones are prosthetics: essential organs of modern life. We must produce devices and software that the general public can trust.
- [FOSDEM for Work and for Fun](https://ergaster.org/posts/2025/02/06-fosdem-work-fun/): At FOSDEM, nicknames become faces and people are kinder offline. As Europe's largest OSS conference, it's the place to meet friendly and competing projects.
- [Why are open source nonprofits so weird?](https://ergaster.org/posts/2024/07/31-open-source-nonprofits-weird/): Open source nonprofits are common in the US. Their legal constraints can sometimes misalign their interests with the projects they were built to serve.
- [Aiming for a Big Bounce in the GNOME Foundation](https://ergaster.org/posts/2024/06/07-gnome-foundation-big-bounce/): The GNOME Foundation needs to control its finances, increase executive transparency, and involve the community. This is a proposal to get there.
- [Open-source is a chainsaw](https://ergaster.org/posts/2024/03/20-open-source-chainsaw/): Open-source can build great projects or break the teams behind them. What does it bring to the table, how can it backfire, and when should software be open?
- [A CRM for the Matrix Foundation](https://ergaster.org/posts/2023/12/30-a-crm-for-matrix-foundation/): The Matrix.org Foundation has chosen a CRM to keep track of members & donors, so it can carry out its democratic activities.
- [The Website Existential Crisis](https://ergaster.org/posts/2023/07/13-website-existential-crisis/): Redesigning a website goes beyond CSS: it forces you to define who you are, what you do, and for whom. I applied the lessons learnt to my personal website.
- [GNOME moves away from GIMPnet](https://ergaster.org/posts/2022/10/28-irc-is-dead-long-live-irc/): The GNOME community has become a Matrix-first community and moves away from its historical network GIMPnet.
- [Scaling the Foundation to Contribute to GNOME](https://ergaster.org/posts/2022/05/03-scaling-the-foundation/): The GNOME Foundation supports the contributing community, it's not a software vendor. It needs directors with non-technical skills to succeed.
- [Adopting Matrix at the GNOME Foundation](https://ergaster.org/posts/2022/04/25-adopting-matrix/): The GNOME community is split across instant messaging platforms, but data indicates that migrating to Matrix is the most future-proof move.
