People tweeting stuff. We allow tweets from anyone.
RULES:
- Mark NSFW content.
- No doxxing people.
- Must be a pic of the tweet or similar. No direct links to the tweet.
- No international politcs
- Be excellent to each other.
- Provide an archived link to the tweet (or similar) being shown if it's a major celebrity, figure or any politician. If you replace the "x" at their site with xcancel (so it beomes xcancel.com), and you're not on mobile, it will save video. https://web.archive.org/save is another great option. Archive.is is no longer recommended because they remove/alter content.
- If a tweet (or similar) makes a statement of fact, either mark it as "satire" in the body or provide the original source link backing up the statement

MODERATORS
Right, but the problem with FOSS is a that it usually moves slow, typically isn't very user friendly, and has no real support from devs most of the time.
But also: Blender
It really is a marvel of open source software.
To add on to this:
Krita (for art and what I want to use for learning art, it's avalible for both Linux and Windows)
Inkscape (for vector making and also can be used as a better text tool than kritas built in text tool if you're using it in a combined workflow, avalible on Windows and Linux)
Tahoma 2D (fork of OpenToonz, OpenToonz coming from Toonz which Studio Ghibli also uses. Used for 2D animation)
Qbitorrent (torrent application avalible on both Linux and Windows)
Gimp (Image editing program avalible on both Linux and Windows but in my personal opinion needs a UX rework)
The best thing is when a private company contributes regularly to FOSS projects moving them along at a timely pace.
Turns out, if it's a single person in their free time it's slower. But at least if something isn't working I can fix it myself.
That because people won't donate. Any project that manages to figure out a way to get donations or pay for it with enterprise support generally ends up with a better product than proprietary, because there's feedback, feature requests, and bug reports to make it better.
