This poster I drew up back in 2021 as an attempt at trying to improve the presentation of the 4 essential freedoms on the gnu.org website. They simply wrote them up as un-assuming text that does not even call attention to itself. I, knowing that we live in the world of short attention spans, decided to try and present the same freedoms in a much more modern way.

Since then I received multiple translations of the poster and even been told that the poster was found in some schools in the USA. The GNU project's website, subsequently published the poster on their website.

Most Free / Libre Software projects are maintained either by strong communities, or through some kind of donation system. Libre Games struggle with both aspects. There are community driven games, but those lack vision and coherent style, because different people contribute differently, on different skill levels and with different stylistic choices. And no corporation is benefiting from existence of libre games, therefor no serious donations are ever expected to be coming their way.

With the petitions idea, which could also be described as some sort of "reverse crowd-funding", I want to try to give Libre Games a chance at sustainability. Which if successful could make Libre Software as a whole more appealing. And perhaps do some good in the world.
