<h2 id="theme-2025">I ♥ Free Software Day 2025: Hidden projects</h2>
<p>
“I Love Free Software Day” is a long-lasting tradition. On this
day, we thank all the people behind Free Software projects or programs
and let them know that their work does not go unnoticed. Lets
celebrate all the wonderful people working for Free Software together:
join the “I Love Free Software Day” celebrations all over Europe. Get
in touch with your <a href="/about/groups.html">local
FSFE group</a> and organise a fun meeting.
</p>
<p>
We are grateful to those who work and contribute to the Free Software
universe: developers, designers, translators, advocates, contributors,
users, and more. There are a lot of different Free Software
communities out there, with different values or different focuses in
their work. But we all contribute to Free Software and value the
freedom to use, study, share and improve software. Let's celebrate our
appreciation for Free Software and the people behind it with a simple
<q>Thank you!</q>
</p>
<p>
For this 12th edition of the "I Love Free Software Day" we have a
special focus on Free Software projects that are not on the
front line. In a world that is becoming more and more digital, Free Software is
everywhere. It is in your car, on your router, on the servers that run
our daily infrastructure. Often these projects are hidden so they do not
get the focus they deserve to keep our daily lives up and running.
This year our celebrations will focus on those hidden projects.
