Aren't French authorities quite ahed on FOSS adoption in their platform? I.e. https://lasuite.numerique.gouv.fr/en

even the most sensitive information are collected through Microsoft and government sites use adobe too
Windows is the OS in almost all government computers.not to forget all the WhatsApp use for official communication
facebook and xitter accounts of most government offices are still active

The whole article is a good read but this is the important bit:
Instead, the northern state will turn to open-source software to "take back control" over data storage and ensure "digital sovereignty", its digitalisation minister, Dirk Schroedter, told AFP.
They also blame Trump which is pretty hilarious but probably not terribly relevant to the community.
Trump's executive order forced Microsoft to disable access for ICC's Chief Prosecutor. So, in a sense, Trump is indeed a threat to digital sovereignty.

Oh, he is a threat to all types of sovereignty, in every sense.

Yes, they'll use Linux.
Es ist wirklich das Jahr des Linux-Desktops

They have their systems only they use, therefore they can easily make them on Linux or emulate.
Also, a lot of systems are web-based (and therefore automatically multi-platform) these days.
Don't forget, most computers are faster on Linux than on the newest windows version, so you can hold off on upgrades for longer if the hardware is physically fine, which just further decreases costs.

Is that not literally the same link as the OP?
EDIT: Ah, the OP's edit from 30 minutes before your comment has not federated out to your instance yet.
I currently see this URL provided by https://thebrainbin.org/u/@Pro@programming.dev and it is not identical: https://us.afpnews.com/article/?were-done-with-teams-german-state-hits-uninstall-on-microsoft%2C49PM3G2=

I have a Dell laptop from 2013 I'm running Mint on 🫡
Granted, I'm only using it for web browsing and note taking, but still.

Hmm, I think this is an Mbin vs Lemmy issue. There are two differences in the URL:
- The broken URL has
%2Cinstead of,. This part does not make a difference, because that resolves to a comma anyway - The broken URL has
=at the very end for some reason. This is what breaks it. Remove that character, and the URL works fine
The weird thing here is that the broken URL only ever shows up on Mbin. Below are a few different links to the comment in which you shared the broken URL. If you view the comment on your Mbin instance, it is indeed broken. But if you view it on this community's Lemmy instance or my home instance, your same comment actually has the working URL. Something about how the post/comment were federated must have messed things up.

Linux is great for government work.
They dont need compatibility as much. They have their systems only they use, therefore they can easily make them on Linux or emulate.
Otherwise they need a office suite like Libre.
And there's money to save. Benefits the whole country.
And gamers are looking to SteamOS to replace windows.

I never understood how a huge government can't be bothered to host their own nextcloud or whatever for a couple dozen mil per year instead of spending hundreds of millions per year on onedrive and other commercial crap.

Last week I noticed that Lemmy doesn’t like certain characters when posting URLs and silently replaces them - in my case
%20got converted into+which broke my link. I experimented a bit with other „percent encoded“ values and there are more that get replaced.I’m currently collecting a bit of data to open a bug report - links even get changed when put in a codeblock or inline code…
Check this comment out where I used every possible value from
%00to%FFin URLs. The second half (above%80) gets wild

I didn't see what exactly they're using for a Teams replacement?

Open desk, is the office suite they use, I suppose. Matrix chat, perhaps?

It's a cooperation between France, Germany, and more recently The Netherlands.
