Pretty much all the basic tools are named after and have icons looking like the original, physical tools used back in the analog days of photography, and also painting and printing in general.

Brush, pen and scissors being the obvious ones, masking should also be fairly self-explanatory. But then there's also stuff like dodging and burning, which is a technique used in the darkroom to increase or decrease exposure of specific parts of the physical image, and a lot more I have to look up the english names for first

I swear to god, half of my most recent playthrough was spent trying to find the last blueprint for the grappling arm

There is actually a wip project that aims to do just that, unite all these FOSS apps in one, interconnected ecosystem.

I don't remember what it was called, I'll get back to you once I find it again.

It's OpenCreativity

Zap element: Convict

I wonder how many people do photo editing while being blissfully unaware of why the tools are named the way they are.

Now I'm wondering... Do modern phones still come with an instruction manual?

Because what I do notice is that some people ask How would I have known that? while never having read the instructions that came with a device.

If LibRedirect becomes available, then definitely that. Redirects links from at this point twenty different services to more privacy-friendly frontends

That's one reason I like Librewolf so much, it has containers by default

It does a few things here and there that can still be useful, true.

27 addons? Might as well disable Resist Fingerprinting, then.

I have confidence that they'll do it right, but looking at its past, it will take a looong while until it's ready

Signals' note to self chat is really convenient, ngl. A linear chat history is obviously not the most organized way of writing notes, but for some small save-for-later type infos here and there, I like it a lot.

With how much Adobe infects a system, leaving multiple different traces behind even when uninstalled, I think it's fair to say that Photoshop itself is almost a virus

Genuinely, how can you get rid of all that? How do you even find everything?

Oh, and Wayland also isolates clients from each other too.

One of the biggest reasons I might want to say goodbye to xfce sooner than later.
I can't make use of most of Waylands' features and improvements, but this kind of isolation is very much worth it anyway.

The most important part in malware protection is whoever sits in front of the screen. Systems like Android have so many safeguards in place, the only way to get a virus is the user forcing it through themselves, pretty much.

And even Matrix Bridges aren't perfect either

You might be confusing it with Libretube

The cool thing about Piped is that it serves as a proxy, so you don't connect to YouTube directly

I need both, simultaneously

Mate, you have go slow, ease into it
