All of the software used in the Fediverse is Free Software. | |||
Free Sofware is software that follows the 4 freedoms defined by the FSF: | |||
* Freedom 0: The freedom to run the program as you wish, for any purpose. | |||
* Freedom 1: The freedom to study how the program works, and change it so it does your computing as you wish. Access to the source code is a precondition for this. | |||
* Freedom 2: The freedom to redistribute copies so you can help your neighbor. | |||
* Freedom 3: The freedom to distribute copies of your modified versions to others. By doing this you can give the whole community a chance to benefit from your changes. Access to the source code is a precondition for this. | |||
