I have been using #Inkscape for over 15 years, and I have told uncountable people to use it. But in recent years it somehow get worse with every new version

Wenn ich die #EH22-Logos im #SVG-Format unter https://git.hamburg.ccc.de/EH22/design-public/src/branch/main/logo in einem beliebigen Browser anschaue, sehen sie wie gewünscht aus. Lade ich sie in #Inkscape (1.4) werden aber wohl die Filter nicht korrekt verarbeitet. Kann mir da vielleicht jemand auf die Sprünge helfen, wieso das der Fall ist und wie man das korrigieren kann?
Hoy es el día de la visibilidad trans, en un momento en el que ser una persona trans es muy complicado en muchos países. El mundo está poniendo todos sus esfuerzos en borrar nuestra existencia y en reprimir nuestro derecho a ejercer nuestra identidad.
Por este día decidí hacer este dibujo. Es una personaje transgénero de Star Wars, mi saga favorita de todos los tiempos. Su nombre es "Sister", y sólo ha aparecido en libros.
Sigamos luchando en favor de nuestra identidad y nuestros derechos. ¡No dejemos que nadie borre nuestra existencia,y siempre reivindiquemos nuestra identidad!
Existimos, estamos aquí, no nos iremos a ningún lado.

I continue not having much free time to work on this, but I've managed to finish the aft screens!
All that's left is the helm station, I'm dreading UVing that curved display.

To reduce my reliance on AI for illustration, I started learning #Inkscape this weekend. First attempt: a small logo for my blog #TurboTartineGames. https://j-ponzo.github.io/
What do you think? Does it seem usable? ^^
Pour diminuer ma dépendance à l'IA en matière d'illustration, je me suis mis à #Inkscape ce weekend. Premier essai : un petit logo pour mon blog #TurboTartineGames https://j-ponzo.github.io/
Vous en pensez quoi ? Ça vous parait utilisable ?
Finally, new finished art! Have a Big the Cat fan art drawing.
Hello there
2 things:
1. why is #Inkscape loading ALL of the symbols installed? in linux this is quite a big package, so it takes some time to start. i would think that even if such option is selected in the tab when quitting the app, it should default to "document's only" symbols. because this affects the new (blank) documents as well
2. why when i open a working document is it telling me that this or that font "is not available" and will be replaced with that one (exactly the same, obviously installed) and selecting the "faulty" text?
btw, while loading like this, it shows a very pixelated and enlarged image of the document. it also occurs briefly during normal loading if the files is big.

I like my Debian Xfce distro so much I made a wallpaper for it featuring some Linux mascots.
Vector artwork made entirely in Inkscape (with sketches done in Krita).

Hey, #Krita people and @krita_artists ! (And maybe #Inkscape people and @inkscape artists!)
I want to have a character's head coming out a frame/shape (a la the Disney VHS spines from the Old Times). I feel like there should be an easy way to do this, but so far all I've got is making a shape, pasting the character, pasting another shape on top, and kind of masking out the character. Doesn't feel optimal so I thought I'd ask. #help #artist #

Festival Latinoamericano de Instalação de Software Livre (FLISoL)
O FLISoL é um evento internacional, realizado anualmente, e que ocorre de forma simultânea em diversas cidades da América Latina. O FLISoL é um evento descentralizado, onde diversas comunidades organizam e realizam seu festival, de forma voluntária, tendo como principal objetivo promover o uso de software livre, apresentando sua filosofia, alcance, avanços e desenvolvimento ao público em geral.
FLISoL acontece, historicamente, no 4º sábado de abril. Este ano o evento está marcado para o dia 26 de abril, no Brasil, por conta de alguns feriados.
O evento é gratuito e aberto a todo o público: curiosos, interessados e entusiastas do Software Livre. Nesse dia os voluntários propõem a instalação de Software Livre, como distribuições de GNU/Linux, sistemas BSD, e aplicativos livres para Windows em geral. Alguns eventos também contam com palestras, oficinas, sala de degustação e gravações de mídias (live-CD/DVD e/ou pendrives).
O objetivo do FLISoL é promover o uso de Software Livre em geral, além de criar interações entre usuários e desenvolvedores, promovendo palestras e minicursos.
O FLISoL Salvador 2025
Contará com uma Mesa de perguntas anônimas.
Uma bancada faz uma brevíssima exposição de idéias só para iniciar. Daí pra frente o público presente envia perguntas anonimamente que aparecerão no telão para serem respondidas ou debatidas.
Install Fest
Um Installfest é um evento, geralmente patrocinado por um Grupo de Usuários Linux ou universidade, em que pessoas se reúnem para realizar instalações em massa de sistemas operacionais de computador ou software, principalmente o sistema operacional Linux e outros softwares de código aberto. É geralmente um evento de apoio e de construção da comunidade, onde iniciantes trazem seus computadores juntamente com os discos de instalação de seu sistema operacional preferido ao local do installfest, e usuários experientes os auxiliam a iniciar e a resolver problemas. Às vezes CDs contendo alguma distribuição de Linux e informativos são distribuídos gratuitamente aos participantes. Os installfests recebem bem todo nível de conhecimento, de iniciantes completos a usuários avançados. Os installfests podem variar de encontros informais a festas com comida, bebida e música. O tom e o escopo do evento dependerá da organização que o patrocina. A palavra /Installfest/ é uma junção de /instalação/ e /festival/. O termo /install fest/ ou a variação /Install Fest/ são também utilizados. /Installfest/ captura a atmosfera festiva de pessoas auxiliando umas às outras através de instalações muitas vezes difíceis.

Standard interchange image format for Open Source DTP
Hi people,
with all the mayor GUI #DTP software reaching their peak: #GIMP, #Scribus and #Inkscape; and the well established #TeX software #ConTeXt and #SpeedataPublisher, and #ImageMagick we need a serious discussion about which image format we should adopt that works seamlessly across all these applications and it is generally accepted in the press workflow, whereas is embedded or not into a PDF file.
It should be something that has good quality, supports #CMYK and Alpha channels and it is #opensource friendly and perhaps an #openstandard.
I would dare to say that perhaps jpeg2000 matches most of them, it exists from a very long time and can be adopted as common ground, however it is need a combined effort, if what I am writing makes sense for you.
ImageMagick supports it, Gimp 3 currently doesn't, #LuaTeX and #LuaMetaTeX neither. I guess that Inkscape once it will be able to export in CMYK it will decide which format using to store images in CMYK with alpha into a PDF.
It would be very beneficial if we can adopt a format that works everywhere and it is press friendly, thanks.

Today is #DocumentFreedomDay!
The first rule of Document #Freedom Day is that we talk about open #document formats and tools that allow documents to be accessed, edited and shared by anyone, without restrictions or reliance on specific software or vendor lock-in.
I wrote the post below to talk about the #free and #open formats and #opensource tools that I am using for the #writing #typesetting and #layout of Return of the Ripper.
