It’s okay that we send your data to third party advertisers, right? Oh and I’m sure you want to hear all the newest updates from our product team! Wait, please don’t click the “ask app not to track button”! Can you verify your email? By the way, heard about our gold plan???” #Enshittification #tech

  Just discovered Tux Paint, it's like a modern version of KidPix. My kid is going to love this! https://tuxpaint.org/

  The fact that the GTK.AboutDialog has parameters specifically for crediting developers, translators, and artists speaks so much about the ecosystem. Software created by people for people. That's the future in this sloppy world. #GTK #Gnome #Linux
