Libre Culture
What is libre culture?
Libre culture is all about empowering people. While the general philosophy stems greatly from the free software movement, libre culture is much broader and encompasses other aspects of culture such as music, movies, food, technology, etc.
Some beliefs include but aren't limited to:
- That copyright should expire after a certain period of time.
- That knowledge should be available to people, not locked away.
- That no entity should have unjust control or possession of others.
- That mass surveillance is about mass control, not justice.
- That we can all band together to help liberate each other.

Rules
I've looked into the ways other forums handle rules, and I've distilled their policies down into two simple ideas.
-
Please show common courtesy: Let's make this community one that people want to be a part of.
-
Please keep posts generally on topic
-
No NSFW content
-
When sharing a Libre project, please include the name of its license in the title. For example: “Project name and summary (GPL-3.0)”
Libre culture is a very very broad topic, and while it's perfectly okay for a conversation to stray, I do ask that we keep things generally on topic.

I thought a lot about having subsets(especially in the news section) but I really need a easy way to implement it using only HTML and CSS, which I could not figure out yet(I am not a web developer).
about having a filter, I still did not get a time to implement a filter, but it's planned for the future for sure.
I will surf through all this piles, hopefully I might find a lot of high quality resources to add.
About having a description for each item, the best idea I had about how to display it is a hover text which could be implemented in the future, but it's still early to implement sonething like this.
I really appreciate your comments and suggestions, don't hesitate to reach out to me if you had any other suggestion.
Thank you.
Likewise, feel free to reach out if you need a hand. I don't always have time, but I do my share of weird programming.
