Happy 2024! The Eco-Libre project published our 2023 Annual Report for last year.

Eco-Libre is a volunteer-run project that designs libre hardware for sustainable communities.

I have been interested in permaculture as well as ecologically sustainable computing, and I have finally found a community and concept that ties these two together. I was just browsing Gemini capsules (which you need a compatible web browser for), and I came across this: gemini://sol.cities.yesterweb.org/

Which led me to their http website: https://solflo.neocities.org/

On their about page, they recommend a permacomputing website here: https://compudanzas.net/permacomputing.html

Which contained a link to the Permacomputing wiki (which this post directs to) and a web page from Ville-Matias "Viznut" Heikkilä that I am currently reading: http://viznut.fi/texts-en/permacomputing.html

I hope this is a relevant community to share this. There's not really a permaculture, sustainability, or general computing (just realized there is a technology community, I will crosspost there) community on Lemmygrad that I could find at the moment, but I wanted to share this with my fellow comrades h
