Great to see @turtlestitch as a #coderdojo activity with @bart today.
And really great to see an old-school Coderdojo in action still
In the past two decades, three forces for good came into the world. #TeachMeet 2006; #Coderdojo 2011; the #Turtlestitch community 2015. In Tilburg, Netherlands this weekend, all three intersected during #Turtlestitch10 at the Hostel Roots cellar bar ... #HopePunk
Celebrating and exchanging at Turtlestitch 10 in Tilburg/NL. From workshops to presentations and currently a teachmeet in the local Roots Hostel ! One more day to go at Lochal.nl

Walter and Paul presenting a DIY project to convert an old sewing machine into a modern computerized embroidery machine. First time in TV today 😄

2/2 ... not good.

This is the sort of problem that a paid version of Inkscape would be fixing, personally I don't think it responsible to offer a gratis version of Inkscape on any store. It creates a weird relationship where users *depend* on free labour and are at the same time alienated from being able to fix it.

Why do we do this to ourselves? Ask people to depend on us, but provide no functioning economics to make it actually function?

Gratis Software: The gift that keeps on taking.😮‍💨

I have a frustration. We publish #inkscape on the Microsoft Store, mostly for people who's workplaces or surface tablets forbid them from installing directly.

But it's a headache. We have no employees, and the linux engineer who does the packaging is a volunteer. Week before last Inkscape's botched upgrade from 1.3.2 to 1.4.2 in the store (very late) caused about 4.5k people (real humans) to not be able to use Inkscape for an entire week before the install error was fixed.

This is ... 1/2

@xota is Britt Möricke already on your radar?
