Poll about graphics free software we use the most between Inkscape, GIMP, Blender, and other. It is my first poll ever in all social networks and I didn't expect it to be a big success with hundreds of participants and a lot of reshares and likes. Oh, and it is still 1 day left to go.
My post about list of GNU/Linux distros we can follow at Mastodon showing a picture of Ubuntu, Fedora, Debian, etc., and with hundreds of reshares and likes and replies.
My post titled Ubuntu 20.04 Graphic Design Suite with a picture of Akira, GIMP, Inkscape, Krita, etc. It was originally published on https://www.ubuntubuzz.com.
My post titled User Friendly Resources to Learn GNU/Linux with three pictures of getgnulinux.org, and trylinux.today, and flossmanuals.net websites.

@ademalsasa Not sure which radio to check: Atari XT 8088 (must have been close to this one: ataripc.net/pc3-8088/) with a Bernstein EGA monitor and a 20 MB hard drive. I remember having used a special driver to steal some kB from the EGA turning it into a CGA, so I ended up with 640k FREE RAM when the system was loaded. Ought to be enough for everybody, someone™ said in 1992…

Oh, and my floppies had 800k (punching a hole into the 360s and using another driver) 🙈

@IzzyOnDroid thank you, Izzy. Glad to find an Atari user.

@ademalsasa Though it was just their PC (well, even that used a couple of original Atari hardware). The Atari ST I just gaped on open-mouthed at a friends place, seeing its musical capacities…

Fun fact: the first ones I've used were Commodore's C16/C64/C4+. A friend had the latter one, but no "hard money" left for a printer, so he built an adapter for his electrical type-writer's line buffer. He demonstrated that once to me: machine gun fire sound, poor grandies were running for the shelters 🙈
