Tebibyte Media was started in 2020 by <a href="/~emma">Emma
|
|
Tebibyte</a> to create a community of technology-savvy
|
|
individuals who shared faer values. The original goal was to
|
|
propagate free software values, and that goal heavily
|
|
influenced the development of the itss new today.
|
|
</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
|

<p>
|
|
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.

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
