  • Promoting free/libre software (free as in freedom!) - and helping people see free software in the context of human rights

Software goals:

  • Increasing mindfulness of breathing, body, and posture
  • Helping people become more aware of (and kind to) their bodies when using the computer for long periods of time

Motivation when contributing to this project

"Don't do anything except with the joy of a small child feeding a hungry duck"

By feeding the hungry duck, you are helping their well-being and making them happy. You’re not feeding it just because you feel like you should or ought to, but because it makes both of you happy. That’s how we’d love for you to help with this project! When you contribute, not only are you are helping this project, you are helping others who will use this application, helping them to be mindful whilst working at the computer and to be aware of their breathing and well-being.
