I mean I don’t think that we can’t collaborate effectively. Look at eg. accent colors, the spec that was agreed upon is not the one GNOME was in favor of, but we didn’t really make a big deal out of it and it turned out alright.
Some contributors have communication issues and in general, the project is pretty opaque, but I don’t think we need to change course entirely.

I think there is deep value to maintaining a project with the mindset that it’s going to be opinionated and “clean”, not something that has to work for everyone at the moment, but something that sets trends and dictates direction. That being said, I think people sometimes expect GNOME to accommodate their needs, and are left angry realizing that it won’t. This is an issue with our communication, and I want to hope that fixing it would be enough to resolve this.

Yeah, I agree, there is bad rhetoric on both sides, but I also think that for the most part, bad faith comments are more common among people who despise GNOME, as is often common with hate.

In addition to GitHub Sponsors, I have created a Liberapay for anyone who would like to support my work there :blobfoxheartcute:

I just need 4 more people to sign up to test Sly, my image editor on Android to be able to submit to Google Play. If you have an Android phone and a Google account and would be willing to download the app to help, please send me a private message :blobfoxmeltsob:

Markdown is not a great standard for this. Not all viewers/editors support the same features and you can’t embed media within in. Even if there were a simple markup format for this, it wouldn’t be md.

The fact that the general consensus on #GNOME among Linux users seems to be hatred or distrust based on blind misinformation is unsettling. We really can’t just dismiss everyone as “trolls”. We absolutely need better public relations and coordination with the Foundation, because right now, we are letting bad faith actors dictate the direction of all discussions of the project.

I’d like to call for testers for Sly, my open source image editor on Android again. I would need at least 20 testers to install the app to be able to release it on Google Play and I would really like to :blobfoxcry2:
Please, if you’re able to, message me with your Google account email address so that I can invite you to test it, or boost this post. It would mean a lot :blobfoxheart:

I’ve been interested in writing an intent-based, rather than descriptive meta toolkit for a while and I finally got around to throwing together a prototype in Python with a GTK backend. Honestly, I'm starting to like the idea more and more.

I'm polishing up Sly, my open source, friendly image editor for release on Android, iOS, macOS and Windows.
I would like you to have the best experience installing the app but the combined fees to publish to each app store ends up at ~150 USD :blobfoxnotlikethis:
If you have interest in seeing the app (and my other apps) on these platforms, please consider supporting me financially :blobfoxheart:

I just released Sly, a local, open source photo editor.
I’ve been frustrated with commercial solutions and found the free alternatives too complex for my use case, so I decided to create my own.
This is the first version and a lot of things are still missing, but I would like for you to try it out so I can hear your thoughts on it.
The app is currently available for Linux and the web, with all major platforms coming soon.

Apparently, `widget = widget` stops `widget` from being rebuilt in Flutter. Why? How? I don't know. But it did cost me like 4 hours of debugging. :blobfoxconfused: :blobfoxsad:
