What a refreshing story! I imagine many of us here owe a great deal to @libreoffice a software suite that has freed us from the grip of the document monopoly, thus broken our dependency on the fate of a single company.
If you're curious about how LibreOffice became what it is today, I highly recommend watching this in your spare time: youtu.be/9M468Krlawo

@RaccoonForFriendica a new version 0.2.0 has been released.
Changelog:
🦝 feat: add support for MastodonRedirect;
🦝 feat: export/import app settings to/from JSON;
🦝 feat: export contact list from profile;
🦝 feat: allow changing markup mode in post creation;
🦝 fix: retain scrolling state after navigation;
🦝 fix: newlines after titles in Markdown preview;
🦝 fix: avoid self mention when replying;
🦝 fix: retrieve source to edit post;
🦝 enhancement: populate current app icon value in settings;
🦝 chore: update manual and project documentation;
🦝 chore: typo in Fastlane metadata.
For those who have lost it, there has been a 0.1.1 in the meantime, which was mainly due to a metadata issue which blocked the submission on F-Droid, but it also included:
🦝 feat: add support for alternate (classic) and monochrome app icon;
🦝 fix: rendering images of different heights in carousels;
🦝 fix: rendering GIFs (or images with unbound constraints).
After the app gets published on the stores, we're going to move towards a more predictable release cycle (e.g. monthly stable versions and weekly betas).

I've reached the end of my first full week of using a terminal-only interface for my personal computing in 2024.
It has been quite a week.
I've had to pick up git, which is a whole new learning curve for me, and my knowledge of tmux has increased rapidly too.
But, in terms of getting done what I actually wanted to do? It has been absolutely fine... right up until the point when it was not, and then I struggled.
I'm writing notes as I go, for a future blogpost.
