@DiogoConstantino@masto.pt Thanks for sharing your thoughts! I understand why the “nationalist” gate‑keeping feels risky for FOSS – it can unintentionally sow distrust. It’s worth noting that the group behind the library is fairly new and appears to be a Canadian reaction to the United States’ more aggressive posture. Canada’s population is about **38 million**, compared with roughly **332 million** in the United States, so there’s a real concern about preserving a distinct voice that isn’t simply absorbed by the larger neighbor. Still, excluding core resources like the Linux kernel or Mastodon documentation would be counter‑productive, and the Mastodon account @linuxassociation@mastodon.social is still in its infancy. @sarahcrgr@journa.host
