      @bitfucker Over the next 2 years we plan to organize events like this with volunteers around the world. If you would like to get involved, be in touch!

      As part of the “Opt Green” project we are also creating info materials about software-driven e-waste (https://invent.kde.org/teams/eco/opt-green/-/blob/master/materials/leaflets/kde-eco-umweltfestival-flyer-EN_final.jpg) and providing Linux installation help and generally documenting what we are doing so others can learn from what is working (and what is not) 🙂

      But you don’t have to wait for us: check out your local Linux User Group!

        Thanks for the information! Unfortunately, linux users are small in my country. There are rarely any events held here. But this is giving me an idea on how to help people revive their old hardware!
