@omglinux do we know if its fully open source or if there are binary blobs on it?

@prokoudine @GIMP @Krita That snapping layers to other layers is such a great timesaver.

The colored guides look interesting.

So much cool stuff in the pipeline

@thunderbird I hope it's still compact enough or has a compact mode toggle switch so my 5 accounts with dozens of folders are still easily navigatable on a 4k 43" screen without scaling.

I am highly anticipating this update, will look forward to being another #thunderbird space monkey when it makes its way into the #archlinux #aur -- its been so encouraging to see all the work the last few years.

@gmic glad to include GMIC in my 2022 #foss #donations -- thanks for all the cool work you all do -- I was confused though from the website ( https://libreart.info/en/projects/gmic ) -- is PayPal the only way to digitally contribute still?

It would be cool if people could donate using #opencollective or any of the other FOSS-friendly services on a one-time or monthly basis.

@Ruth_Mottram @pixelfed I just realized #pixelfed has a #apk I can install on #Android from their website. #fdroid store should pick it up, I don't see it on #aurorastore either yet -- I've been anticipating this for a while and first impressions are quite good. Its hard to believe its been 2 1/2 years since I joined pixelfed & the #fediverse already.

@BrodieOnLinux Yes, if it contained the source code for the included packages and was large format like #bluray

Oddly enough my list would be Gentoo, Arch, Fedora/Silverblue and maybe others.

Just thinking about this is bringing back memories of buying boxes of #Mandrake #Linux & #RedHat in box in stores 20 years ago.

@gmic to reiterate, 100% agree these tools need to be offline usable

@gmic to go along with that, now that these technologies are here -- they are here to stay and will either be developed transparently or underground. Banning these technologies in the west will just mean that they are pushed to the east.

I think the term "AI" is misleading as other tech terms like "The Cloud" and "Neural Network" are in that they are euphemisms to drum up investment money and mimics of actual things.

If anything the goal should be to keep as much development in open source and the public domain as possible. GMic does a great job at pushing the abilities of open source effects.
