Intro to Open Source Software

10.10.26 | 10:00 AM - 11:30 AM PDT 1 hours in one focused day

Leave Big Tech and Switch to Free and Open Source Software

with Liz Howard

Overview

We will switch our operating system, browser, email, image editors, video editors, AI, documents, slides, everything over to open source and leave big tech behind.

What You'll Master

Download and use alternative, free versions of popular software, including business tools, email, and other stuff you don't need to pay anyone for.

Where This Class Leads

What you leave able to do

  • locate an open source replacement for software you pay for
  • migrate your work off a subscription without losing it
  • produce an account of what you depend on and who can revoke it
  • produce an inventory of what you pay for and what it holds
  • characterise what a tool costs you beyond its price
  • integrate a change into a project you do not control

How you show it. A merged change in a repository you do not own, with the review thread that got it there.
