Good news: now and
emoticons are available on FLOSS.social instance thanks to sir admin @downey. I am really grateful, Sir!
Hello friends who are involved in this toot at the moment, below is my desktop with free design software. It is @ubuntu 20.04 Focal Fossa when I wrote this toot. How are yours? Let me see.
(it is used on my latest article Ubuntu Graphic Design Suite https://www.ubuntubuzz.com/2020/06/complete-graphic-design-suite-on-ubuntu-2004.html)

@ademalsasa GIMP every day
@ademalsasa
Krita for raster and Inkscape for vector.
@gamayun @JoshuaRystedt thanks, I found new friends here. I personally use Inkscape everyday.
@ademalsasa @gamayun the two apps have different uses. Inkscape is my go to SVG editor. But I have graphic artists at my company to handle most of that.
@ademalsasa i wrote GIMP, but its actually Glimpse now
@matt ah, happy to see you use Glimpse, Matt. Do you use it on Fedora?
@ademalsasa i do, yes. Though im using the flatpak, since Fedora doesnt package it.
@matt one more talk about Flatpak I found. Thanks, I guess you often share about Flatpak here at Mastodon?
@ademalsasa out of the different alt distribution/sandboxed approaches, Flatpak is the one to beat IMO. AppImage is good but it doesnt have a central way to update many AppImages at once (flatpaks are easy to bulk update).
I detest snaps for many reasons.
@matt thanks for sharing your experiences! I am glad to hear this.
@ademalsasa I kinda use all of these, plus Krita
@ademalsasa it's hard to quantify which one I use the most because they have different roles
@aeonofdiscord very nice. Do you do animation?
@ademalsasa not much, I really want to get into it though. I tried animating in Krita but it's really not set up for it
@ademalsasa Krita
@squeakypancakes nice!
@bub wow, see the new graphics design tool I found here: Grafx2 http://grafx2.chez.com, The ultimate 256-color painting program, which is GPLv2 licensed and also available at GuixSD system. Amazing, thanks for sharing.
PS: do you use Haiku OS?
@ademalsasa Does Scribus count? Then that. XD
@minx cool, of course! I am a Scribus user too. Thanks for sharing!
Gimp by a longggshot.
I stumbled on Gimp maybe almost two decades ago at this point and ever since I have known it as a reliable tool that on any computer is 2 mins and an internet connection away and that is really pretty awesome.
Inkscape is awesome too! I just find myself editing raster images more.
Glimpse, quite often.
@abloo mmmm, so it is like that. Thanks, I could learn much just from a message from you.
@fedilab Feature request! 😃
Custom emojis in polls. (see post above)
@rick_777 thanks for helping me doing feature request also to Fedilab!
@fedilab@toot.fedilab.app
@ademalsasa Darktable - photo editing. Inkscape would be second, but I do use the GNU imp if I need to do during to a picture I didn't take.
@anne wow, even I can meet Darktable user here. Thanks for sharing, it is cool.
@hj thanks, what a funny reinterpretation you have here.
It's the first I used on Linux and I'm not a graphic pro so for what I do(basic resize, some layer stuff) I see no need to learn anything else.
@mgrondin cool!
@ademalsasa I mean it's kinda apples and oranges 😛 I don't do 3D modeling in GNU Imp 😛
@ademalsasa ImageMagick (I tried GraphicsMagick too which is supposed to be faster but I find it is a bit buggy)
@michel_slm hello Michel Salim, I followed your posts and especially those about Fedora. Cool, thanks for sharing ImageMagick!
@ademalsasa hello there! A fellow Indonesian? (Your blog doesn't list a country but it sounds more Indonesian than Malay, your name too) 🇮🇩
@michel_slm yes, I am Indonesian, Michel Salim. Glad to find you at Mastodon!

Ubuntu 19.10 (haven't upgraded yet) with a tiling KDE environment
@JoshuaRystedt oooh, so this is Pop_os!... Thanks for sharing, Joshua. And I like your KDE.
@ademalsasa Well Pop_os! is Gnome based but I installed KDE an alt environment to try out. Then liked it enough to keep it around as my daily driver.
@JoshuaRystedt I am a KDE user. Glad to know that.
@lucy @anne @minx @rick_777 @abloo @ademalsasa @michel_slm @gianf @aeonofdiscord @bub @TaigaTiger @matt @celesteh @gamayun @veer66 @hj @mgrondin @redstarfish @squeakypancakes @Alonealastalovedalongthe @ubuntu because Pop_OS! Is an Ubuntu distro...
@lucy well this isn’t really true Pop_OS! Pop 19.10 is just vanilla Ubuntu Gnome with some baked in extensions and less bloat. I’m running a custom KDE install so literally none of the unique Pop code is actually being used here. The effect would be the same if I took vanilla Ubuntu and installed KDE.
I just haven’t bothered to modify what neofetch pulls.
@lucy what I should be doing is building my own system through Arch but this laptop shipped with Pop_OS! and my current setup has just kind of evolved to what it is today 😂

i'll post my home desktop later on.
@ademalsasa @ubuntu @JoshuaRystedt @gamayun @TaigaTiger @matt @veer66 @aeonofdiscord @bub @minx @Alonealastalovedalongthe @celesteh @abloo @lucy @rick_777 @anne @hj @redstarfish @michel_slm @gianf
At home i run Gentoo with Qtile as desktop. Single display but its a 32" TV
Thank you, sir admin @downey. Thanks to your addition of
emoticon at FLOSS.social instance, finally I can make this poll.
Honestly, I wish other emoticon will be added too particularly
:kdenlive: :mypaint: :synfig: and anything else I mentioned at my Free Graphics Suite https://www.ubuntubuzz.com/2020/06/complete-graphic-design-suite-on-ubuntu-2004.html. Thanks in advance!
