Peer Tube
Peer Tube
A decentralized video hosting network, based on free/libre software
Peer tube is another service on the Fediverse. That allows you to upload video and share this with other. The difference is there are no adverts and fewer limitations on what you can upload. You still need to stay within the law though. Having used this I found it pretty straight forward and it transcoded my video in a few hours. As stated above this is all based on Free / Libre software.
PodCast Search
PodCast Search
While on the Fediverse you come across lots of useful links to other resources. One that I found recently was https://podsearch.com/
As the name suggests this allows you to search for a pod cast in a good range of topics.
Libre Lounge is another podcast that has covered different aspects of the Fediverse, this includes some of the more technical aspects including a multipart discussion on Activity Pub. Activity pub is one of the protocols that allows posts to be federated across the network.
You can find the Devon and Cornwall GNU / Linux user group on the fediverse at https://social.isurf.ca/profile/dcglug
Or search using dcglug@social.isurf.ca

Fedora : How to help
Fedora : How to help
Like any project, help is always welcome, there is a similar too to that I posted with relation to Libreoffice, but for anyone looking to help with Fedora.
Fedora : How to help
Fedora creates an innovative, free, and open source platform for hardware, clouds, and containers that enables software developers and community members to build tailored solutions for their users.
Repl.it
Repl.it
Repl.it is a web based development environment. This gives you an instant IDE to develop your code and projects. It has recently been updated so that it is multiplayer by default so you can collaborate in real time with fellow developers / hackers, which should help increase productivity and or learning / teaching potential of this platform. Great work to the Development team.
Please see https://repl.it/ for more information and to sign up.

Work to restart the South Devon Computing at School Community seems to be going well, we could do with some more teachers and other staff to get in touch and say how you would like to be supported.
