@Stuarthazley Fastspring is a good option since there is no fixed monthly cost. You only pay a percentage of sales which ends up being about 5-6%. It's not perfect but if you can accept some limitations it's great for getting started

Good news, there are more places available now for the Designing fonts with Fontra workshop with Just van Rossum. Hurry up and use the last chance to register!

@triple ok! I'll see what looks extra green and grassy at our local shop (I enjoy that style too, maybe from Shizuoka?)

I hope things are OK with your kid and with the new place, bringing a little tea seems like the least I can do

I’ve been meaning to send out my quarterly email newsletter, but instead I’ve been dealing with the horrors that are email management in 2026

Gmail discontinuing support for POP3 is a blessing in disguise because it’s forcing me to not rely on them so much. I’m going through my webhost’s mail server, dealing with spam, unsubscribing, filtering… Gmail let me get into technical debt, now it’s time to pay up

Doesn’t really make me want to send another email into the void. Maybe just a short one?

@ameel this is super helpful, thank you!
Does anyone I know use Thunderbird for their email client? How do you like it? Any apps you like better?

@MatthijsSluiter On a side note: the “Hidden Budo & Bujutsu” text got me curious, sent me down a rabbit hole to find this amazing video showing all different martial arts coming together for a demonstration in Japan. Some cool, some cheesy, generally entertaining in a cosplay/Renaissance Faire-esque way.

But at the end there’s one where they hold antique rifles in poses and just make verbal gun noises: “bang” “bang” “bang”… I’m speechless
