One of the reasons I've been subscribed to vimeo for maybe a decade now, was that it never did the automatic copyright filtering for my fpv videos like youtube.

Now it's been properly enshittified with a filter that doesn't work, so finally allows me to not renew my sub. Good job, Vimeo!

@allanday describes some good methods to keep on top of issue tracking in the new GNOME Handbook.

Sketch Friday is here! I need to trace some of these. Been doing sketches and leaving the vectors to others, cheating myself of the Inkscape pleasures.

One of the downsides of easily managed color mixing using SASS in gtk was that none of it was accessible to app developers. Only a few @colors were avail. Few apps that needed to do some color customizations actually shipped the whole of adwaita SASS theme and regenerated their bits.

Such awful hacks are no longer necessary. I'm glad to see @alice ' amazing work on custom CSS properties landing. Thank you for the continuous care from the perspective of app developers!

From the binned wallpapers vault. Some Silverblue and RHEL assets that didn't make it.

Opened up Apostrophe to edit a README and it launched in its sleek 3.0 version. Life is good.

Pointless eyecandy transitions. Can't get enough of.

We have to go deeper. A website switching to a dark mode including renders of hardware illuminated by screenshots also switching to dark mode.

It's Friday and I'm no longer the Anti-Christ, yay! Some app icon sketches.

Whoever says icon themes work has not worked on icon themes for 25 years.

Had an impressively large pigeon poop on my car, so the Friday sketches are very thematic.

Can't stop nerding out about JPEG-XL.

Not just an insane compression, color-banding-busting grain FTW!

Bandcamp Friday tomorrow! If you feel like supporting small fish, Bandcamp somehow still remains being the best.

Mildly bitter sketch Friday. The more stylized the graphic, the less likely a highly opinionated project like any of the "foss creative suite" is open to change. /me slightly disappointed about all the bland identities.

The most wonderful feeling of accomplishment for me arrives after a fruitful collaboration. But contrary to what many FOSS advocates seem to think, you don't have to include every voice in that collaboration.

Other than the fresh new default, 46 will come with a fresh set of wallpapers to pick from. Ready for some new pixels?
