If you are a fan of free open source projects (or any other kind of project for that matter), try asking them if they have a Fediverse account. Even if they don't, this will let them know there's demand for being on the Fedi.

If they DO have an account, please let me know so I can promote them on @FediFollows 👍

@Gargron I did for Pixelfed last year and users loved it!

Hi there 👋 We’ve been working hard to get more devices to our list and here they are! We are welcoming 8 new smartphones this week.

Now we count 213 /e/OS supported devices.

FOSS devs: why don’t more people contribute to our projects?

Also FOSS devs: our project is written in a functional quantum programming language that John really wanted to play with.

My markup language for #GTK4 is ready, and I'm eager to hear your feedback! Is it something you'd use in your apps? What features would you like to see next?

You Call me Death promo, by Midnattsvrede



After waiting for five years for this album to finally come out I lost my patience - so I'm releasing it myself!

Midnattsvrede - You Call Me Death will be available on all common streaming and download services Dec 25, 2021!

This will be the first release on my new label Barsk Musikk!

I've noticed a lot of people on normie social media posting their most listened to songs of the year on Spotify.

As I do not have a Spotify I thought I'd just post a link to my tracks on Bandcamp.

Also I'm allowed to share one half of my drawing for the book in the last day, so here it is :)

You can see Mr Twardowski here. There's somebody else lurking in the bottom half though...
