"LibrePlanet is an amazing event, with an amazing vibe, amazing people,
amazing talks, and now also an amazing location. An event not worth
missing out on," says LibrePlanet 2024 speaker Iván Alejandro Ávalos Díaz. And attendee Sooraj Sathyanarayanan adds: "LibrePlanet is where
real freedom is discovered." Whatever LibrePlanet means to you, we thank
you for having been part of it, and if you missed some sessions, here's your
chance to catch up on them with the LibrePlanet 2024 videos.
Our advice is to take time to watch all the fantastic talks and
speakers that joined us for the conference. However, if you are
looking for advice on where to start, and want to experience the variety
of the talks, or how nearly every topic you can think of relates to
free software, we recommend starting with the following staff picks:
David Wilson, our opening keynote, who provided valuable advice on how to cultivate a welcoming free software community that lasts;
Seth Patterson's talk on writing free culture fantasy with free software;
Neil Plotnick's session on GNU/Linux in the high school classroom; and
Alyssa Rosenzweig's closing keynote, which ended in standing ovations after she talked about her journey to freeing the Apple GPU and encouraged everyone to believe in our potential to do incredible things;
Help us recover the remaining sessions
While all talks were streamed as planned, some were not (fully)
recorded due to a disk error. With the help of the community,
we could recover some of these unrecorded sessions. Unfortunately,
the following sessions are still missing or only partially recorded:
Building bridges and plugging in by Hayley Tsukayama
Free software legislation: How we win by Ciarán O'Riordan
Exploring free software entrepreneurship: Navigating the opportunities and obstacles by Shivanand Edrami
Digital freedom as a moral imperative for authors by Felix Freeman
Walled gardens of freedom by Marc Prud'hommeaux
Set up your local currency with free software! by Iván Alejandro Ávalos Díaz
Trisquel twentieth anniversary spectacular by Rubén Rodríguez Pérez
If you have a local recording of these sessions, please email
[email protected]. A big thank you to the speakers for all their
work, to those of you who sent us their local recordings of the
streams, and to all of you for your patience!
