Tebibyte Media is composed of two distinct parts: the Network and the
|
||
Project. The latter is made up of its <a href="/about#staff">staff</a>
|
||
and the infrastructure that supports it. The constituent projects and
|
||
networks associated with the Project make up our Network. This
|
||
distinction exists in order to maintain an appropriate separation
|
||
between the Project's and members' interests and to preserve some of
|
||
the heterogeneity of these communities.

Tebibyte Media's <i lang="fr">raison d'être</i> is its Network.
|
||
Our goal as a Project is to foster the growth of that Network by
|
||
extending connections of solidarity between individuals, projects, and
|
||
other networks who share the values we believe are important in the
|
||
digital age.

|
||
Tebibyte Media was started in 2020 by Emma Tebibyte to create a
|
||
community of technology-savvy individuals on
|
||
<a href="/discord">a Discord “server”</a> who shared faer values. Its
|
||
original goal was to propagate free software values, which influenced
|
||
its current purpose.
|
||
</p>
|
||
<p>
|
||
Today, Tebibyte Media is an aspiring group of free software and
|
||
open-access enthusiasts who believe that all information should be
|
||
free and publicly accessible. To that end, we promote, share, connect,
|
||
and support like-minded developers, artists, writers, and creators
|
||
whose work progresses toward this goal. Read more at our
|
||

A tebibyte is a unit of digital storage equal to 1099511627776 bytes.

||
The confusion ensuing due to Microsoft Windows' usage of the SI
|

prefixes instead of the proper IEC ones is documented on
