People contribute to FSF to support programmers to make important Libre products like this one and give it away , seems so wasteful for a government to fund a whole new different effort
They rewrote a messenger and the entire office suite. They could’ve collaborated with the Germans in making OpenDesk. Imagine all the dev time going into making Forgejo federated instead of rewriting everything a different way that isn’t interoperable with another government’s tools.
Maybe it has to start with way, every government making their own FOSS tools, features and code getting closer and closer together until they finally merge or dump one FOSS tool over another FOSS tool. 🤷
Because it’s all a waste of dev time, over the past year the french government made all kink of foss tools instead of helping out pre-existing projects.
I’m in constant face palm mode with them. Remember their collaborative suite? remember their e2e messenger?
Of course you don’t. Because they are irrelevant! Even within french public services.
Why why why not just use Jitsi ?

My thought is: at least its FOSS
