For the next GTK cycle, Matthias has been working on a format for symbolic icons that can be rendered efficiently by GTK, including animations; it is based on a subset of SVG with custom vendor attributes:
discourse.gnome.org/t/animated…
If you want to experiment with content creation apps, or towards a shared implementation, feel free to drop by on Discourse.
I have been working for a while on GTK support for stateful, animated, symbolic icons. This post is meant to provide an introduction to the format, and encourage experimentation with it. The code will land very soon in GTK 4.21.GNOME Discourse

Remember the "You wouldn't steal a car" PSA? Turns out they pirated both the font AND the music. Exhibits:
font info: fontsinuse.com/uses/67480/pira…
pirated font embedded in this PDF: web.archive.org/web/2005122320…
and about the music: theransomnote.com/music/news/a…
EDIT: more context re the composer, music, and royalties; the story is ofc more nuanced and apparently debunked: torrentfreak.com/sorry-the-you…

One of the biggest cases of hypocrisy was uncovered last year with little more than a whisper. Most of us will remember seeing the “You wouldn’t steal a car” piracy adverts on every dvd we played in the early 00s.admin (Ransom Note)

UI/UX Design Studio Manager Laurel Terlesky's #fosdem talk is online! Explore Thunderbird's journey toward a cohesive, scalable, and data-informed open-source design system that unites desktop, Thunderbird for Android, and beyond.
This is what I think about whenever infosec wonks on here start telling people they should use matrix or xmpp+omemo or whatnot instead of signal
To be fair, I understand the arguments and to a large extent I agree with the critiques. However, I think anyone making these recommendations is vastly underestimating the capacity or appetite for most people to deal with the user experiences presented by these alternatives.
User experience is the ultimate force multiplier. For anything that requires network effects to function (ie most anything involving communication), if it doesn't *just work* then you've lost 90% of your audience.

Reminder: new home for the Inclusive Design Principles
inclusivedesignprinciples.info… the old domain has lapsed and now advertises gambling 😑
I'm just going to say it. Whoever designed the new notifications layout and design for Mastodon needs to go back to the drawing board (and UI design school). In some cases, esp if you start off with a tag, it looks and works horribly. (desktop view). Way worse than the old way just a month or two ago.

1 year ago I switched from Mac to Linux for professional UX design work. In this article, I explain as simply as possible:
- Why I switched to Linux
- How you can do the same.
I cover design-specific concerns like:
- How to use Apple devices like the Magic Mouse in Linux
- Which design tools are available and how to install them
- How to find help if you get stuck
