How Nonprofits Run the Internet

With the near-constant stream of advertisements, sponsored content, and brand deals we see every day online, it can start to feel like the Internet is all about profit. While it is true that a lot of people make money on the Internet, nonprofits are actually at the heart of keeping it running.

The Internet Society at IGF 2025 in Norway (The Who, What, When, Where, and Why)

How the Internet is managed—its governance model—has a direct impact on how it is used, evolves, and on users’ daily life. We believe that the best way to do it is through an inclusive collaboration model (the multistakeholder model), and the Internet Governance Forum is one of the main global platforms where that governance is practiced. As IGF comes to its 20th edition, the last of its mandate, a sense of urgency arises as we approach a critical time towards the World Summit on the Information Society 20-year review (WSIS+20) that will take place later this year.

Audacious 4.5 Beta Brings New Plugins, Better PipeWire Support

posted by Rianne Schestowitz on Jun 02, 2025

Quoting: Audacious 4.5 Beta Brings New Plugins, Better PipeWire Support - OMG! Ubuntu —

For those unfamiliar with it, Audacious is a lightweight, opens-source and cross-platform audio player written in C++. It was first released in 2005 as a fork of Beep Media Player, itself a fork of the legendary WinAMP-inspired Linux audio app XMMS.

Though Audacious is descended from audio players that were considered a bit flashy in their heyday, its fair to say its among the more ‘modest’ look media players in the modern era (it can be jazzed up with skins).

Aesthetic choices aside, Audacious‘ primary aim is delivering a fuss-free, resource-efficient music playback, support for an expansive set of plugins, robust media codec handling, and native GTK and Qt GUIs.
