I admit, similar approach might be justified for small websites (1-2 people) who cannot have budget to deal with technical problems

But surely #itsfoss have the budget to deal with tech. Instead they decided to turned to public activism to save a bit of it.

Why not publish the tech description on freelancer sites and have the patch submitted by monday for $300?

Turns out, to rile up the audience and instance admins is simply cheaper 😳

it's kinda funny that instead of hiring someone to submit a patch for their issue, #itsfoss decided to publish the article about their technical problems

The article reads superficial, like vague request for commercial proposal but for free lol

> #Mastodon instance admins, please fix our computer, or else we'll stop reposting to your social network

Folks, this is not journalism...

I do most of my #screenshots with the default tool from @gnome. Sometimes, however, when I like to highlight elements, I prefer to use #Shutter. 🔗 https://shutter-project.org

Today, I accidentally came across this older article from @itsfoss and learned, you can actually also use @GIMP for taking screenshots. (file > create > screenshot)

It''s pretty cool if editing is necessary since it opens the image in #Gimp.

Awesome to see @gamingonlinux there. I personally use the RSS feeds for several of these rather than a bookmark, but it's all good.

A neat "book" i came across courtesy of @itsfoss.
"Putting the 'YOU' in CPU" explains how a CPU works, how computers run programs, and the basics of these wonderful devices that have taken over our life, in simple (ish) terms.

For anyone that wants to know HOW computers do what they do, this is a great place to start, and it's free, readable on the website, on GitHub, or as a downloaded PDF.
