I have always been a history enthusiast. Unfortunately, I don’t know much about history in the context of computers. I am therefore interested in learning more about significant events and people like Richard stallman and all the related events such as Windows refund day. I am interested to read and explore the timeline, I suppose a book would be ideal but any good resource such as a youtube series would be great too.
Update: I am happy to recieve such wide variety of resources to explore, I hope this post might help someone who is interested in FOSS history in the future too.
Read the GNU Manifesto. https://www.gnu.org/gnu/manifesto.html
I think it gives a pretty good insight to what was going through Stallman's mind when he kickstarted the GNU project and the software freedom movement. There are also footnotes added later to clarify some things (like the use of "free")
This page might also be interesting to you. https://www.gnu.org/gnu/gnu.html#gnu-history
There's also a biography turned autobiography of Stallman. I think it's called Free as in Freedom 2.0.
