Bei so viel Interesse (Likes & Boosts) möchte ich Euch natürlich nicht zu lange auf die Folter spannen – das genannte #eBook steht jetzt bereit, wurde gerade mit 23 weiteren bei ebooks.qumran.org/ hochgeladen.

Viel Spaß beim Lesen!

I really like the idea of, instead of collaborating on a document via (for example) Google's servers and Google Docs, being able to have collaborators' computers talk to each other directly and share edits that way.

I really hope that "local-first" gains at least the sort of steam the FOSS movement has — as I've seen people comment, FOSS doesn't help if your computation is happening on someone else's computer.

Question to the lovely #opensource crowd.

I'm using #inkscape and needing to limit my colors for screenprinting. Is there any #libre #openSource software that takes an svg design and does something akin to the Newsprint plugin in #gimp to prep for screenprinting with 4 colors? docs.gimp.org/2.10/en/plug-in-…

Ideally preserving the SVG format?

Absent that, what's my best process here?

We like being in this picture! It was a pleasure to work with @libreoffice community on a common goal of making #Weblate better. And thanks to being #libre, every Weblate user is now happier thanks to #TDF! #YourSoftwareYourLanguage #opensource


I use #libre office because it's free and just as good as W**d. And I don't think it's tracking my every word. Used it happily for over a decade and not looking back 😊

If you look at the roadmap for our next major ESR (#Thunderbird Supernova, version 115), you'll notice our goal to complete most features is Q4 2022.

That's because we're entering "feature-freeze" by the end of 2022, and then spending several months on polish and refinement.

This should also mean a longer beta-testing period (and yep, we're working hard on official stable and beta #Flatpak channels).

We want Supernova to exceed your expectations. developer.thunderbird.net/plan…

OwnCast servers include Fediverse compatibility, so you can follow them from Mastodon etc. When a stream you follow goes live, you'll see a message telling you about it in your timeline.

Thanks to the beautiful @play0ad screenshots I got to have a great chat with my 10 year old nephew about #foss and #3dmodeling. He was very impressed by the #libre aspect and how anyone could improve and add to the software. I then showed him my name and avatar on the contribution list for @AntennaPod and he was so impressed with how many people worked together to make the app.
Just wanted to share this feel good story with the #opensource crowd, we're winning hearts and minds!
