THREAD: I made a series of images for an Instagram post I made about migrating to the fediverse. I figured I'd share with anyone else who wants to use, so I included some blank template versions too. DM if you'd like the Adobe Illustrator file so you can make your own edits. And please,comment if I got anything wrong so I can correct it.

@janeadams These are great. Next steps is to talk about FOSS alternatives to platforms like Adobe, because the social media tech giants aren't the only ones collecting our data and abusing our trust. ;-)
@lwriemen Oof, good point. What tools do you use for Illustrator, InDesign, and After Effects? Those are the main ones I use
@janeadams I don't use tools like that, so I'm not much help. Maybe someone else will chime in.
