Krita 6 (and 5.3) released! Two top-tier #art #apps for the price of one!
Look forward to Wayland color management (for Krita 6); an overhauled text tool with direct on-canvas editing, wrapped text and text-on-path capacity; a new #comic panel assistant; and so much more 🖌️.

5.3.0 now released also for Haiku, 6.0.0 is still a bit too early to replace 5.3.0 on Haiku.

Locally updated Qt to 6.11.0-rc, so far first checks are good, only visual change atm is the increased fontsize like in NeoChat and Tokodon.

Marknote bugfix release 1.5.1 is out. While the Haiku user will still be one version 1.4.1, I keep up here with latest releases and nightly builds, making sure things are still OK when Qt > 6.8 will be available for Haiku.

Code-blocks are working fine and the markdown editor has been improved a lot, with quotes being fixed among other things being fixed.
