📢 📢 📢 Today we publish an Open Letter from developers to the #Linux #community regarding shipping unfinished patches to users.

Shipping unfinished patches harms the user experience and slows down the review process in #FOSS projects to improve the patches.

You can read our Open Letter at: https://do-not-ship.it

If you agree with this letter, you can support it by signing it, see: https://do-not-ship.it/sign

I animated this original #candle holder for our #indie #game ODGŁOS. The #sculpture was made by wonderful @zelaworkshop (IG) :)
I immediately thought it had very #mysterious #character. Paired with haunting #sounds from Polish Radio Experimental Studio and #retro #style #stopmotion #animation, this awkward #creature came to life :)

You can #play ODGŁOS for #free on our website.

phosh 0.20.0~beta1 is out 🚀📱 :

Couple of days late due to #Debian Reunion in HH but here we go:

* swipe gestures on top and bottom bar
* quick settings and top bar on lock screen
* Revamp settings menu
* Lots of detail fixes

It's a beta since we want to put some final touches on gestures and top-bar to not regress (see https://gitlab.gnome.org/groups/World/Phosh/-/milestones/2#tab-issues).

Check out the full release notes https://gitlab.gnome.org/World/Phosh/phosh/-/tags/v0.20.0_beta1 for details.

Another clip from our #indie #game "Odgłos". I animated this original #sculpture "The #joy generator", which was made by my friend (IG @zelaworkshop). I was #happy to be able to give it life through my animation :)

Sound on!

The sounds in this #stopmotion animated game come exclusively from Polish Radio Experimental Studio - a birthplace of #electronic #music in #Poland.

This is a magical shader that makes my 6-year-old game "Karambola" look like it's actually from 21st century! Can you see the difference?

And what's the occasion?
The #game is finally coming to #Steam and #SteamDeck on June 16th (for #free)!

Add it to your #Wishlist
https://store.steampowered.com/app/765480/Karambola
...so you won't miss it!

Along with:
- the ability to gather the cutest achievements
- to be the first to know when we add the secret DLC
- almost-tactile-virtual-hugs from your emotional #fruit friends!

#Owls and #drums are the best combo ❤️
That's why we have them also in our #indie games!

Here's a #drumkit #puzzle from ODLOT - our short #gamejam creation, which resulted in longer ODGŁOS. They both exclusively use #sounds from Polish #Radio #Experimental Studio and #legendary Black Room, which was a birthplace of Polish #electronic music.

By playing both #games you can learn more about history of PRES and immerse in its atmosphere (amplified by #retro style #animation).

Flattened layers that make for the background, without animations.

A little owl pays a tribute to Phil Collins...

...or a new secret project coming up? :)

@purism is hiring https://puri.sm/jobs/ Webdev, Technical Writer, App Devs, Firmware Devs

In an interesting turn of events today, my #librem5 is being used to test why my siblings iPhones cannot make phone calls.

Sadly @purism probably can't do much to help Apple products, as they are pretty good with technical troubleshooting otherwise!

Hey, so this is super cool.

Google has been collecting call and messaging data about who you talk to or send text messages to for years. There's no opt-out, no notifcation in their TOS they're doing this, and you can't see the results of that collection in Google Takeout.
