Are you tired of "Big Tech" bloat? Interested in privacy, DIY hardware, or just want to see what that "Linux" thing is all about?
I'm excited to announce the launch of the Conifer FOSSTech and LUG. We are a new community group dedicated to Free and Open Source Software and hardware. Whether you are a professional sysadmin, a Raspberry Pi hobbyist, or a total beginner who wants to learn to code, there is a seat for you at our table.
Our Kickoff Meeting:
When: Monday, Jan 26, 2026 @ 5:30 PM
Where: JCPL Conifer Branch (Town Center)
What: A casual meet-and-greet, a brief intro to our 2026 roadmap (including an upcoming "Intro to Programming" series), and a "Show & Tell" for any projects you're working on.
Topics we cover: Desktop Linux, Docker, Arduino/Raspberry Pi, Home Labs, and Digital Privacy.
All skill levels are welcome! Let’s build a local tech community right here in the foothills.
