One of the main things that I have been missing in Lemmy since moving over from the other site has been the myriad communities for the various bits of FOSS software I use on a regular basis.
Any any given day, I’ll use Kdenlive, LibreOffice, Blender, Gimp and Scribus in the course of getting work done both personally and professionally, and I kept waiting for the day when I wouldn’t have to go back to the other site to keep up to date with them.
While some (Blender) eventually got communities in the fediverse of their own, few are very active. So I felt that I should at least try to create my own in the hopes that it draws some activity.
So if you’re joining because of a shared love of FOSS creative software, welcome. I’m hoping to post news and other articles from around the web, as well as being a place for questions and advice from user to user.
Maybe it’ll be just as dead as all the others. But I hope not.
I’m just getting started with Godot, myself. Anyone else?
Ooh. That’s a good one I hadn’t thought of. I’ve looked into it a little bit for a game idea I had, but my programming skills are limited to a bit of Lua, a bit of Javascript, and HTML (not programming…).
Please feel free to celebrate anything you create with it, or ask questions to see if anyone has an answer, or to answer others! Thanks!
Sounds like a neat community! Creative FOSS might be another good name. I love LibreOffice, although I’ve only used the text document and spreadsheet applications so far
Sounds cool! Feel free to promote on [email protected] and similar places to get the community rolling
