@siracusa Re: your vector problem. In Adobe, it’s “outline stroke” or “image trace / image expand”. And then use “pathfinder outline” on your two overlapped shapes and then delete the chunks you want to remove. I don’t have Affinity, but this should help as a starting point to find its equivalent. Hope that helps!

Things the community can do to make Mastodon better.
1. Quit being overly defensive of valid criticism of Mastodon
2. Less hall monitoring. Yes alt-text is good but so aggressive about it

Things Mastodon can do to make Mastodon better
1. Make passive profile discovery better. I am literally following people I find interesting in comments I read, but this is an active task.
2. Make following accounts on different instances easier. AKA don't tell me I have to join that instance to follow them.

@ivory Can we get swipe back from anywhere on the screen as an optional behavior? That is definitely something the regular Mastodon app got right. Soooo much more convenient.

NPR is the only major journalism org to have shown a spine in dealing with Musk. So he's threatened to give the NPR username to someone else.

Yet even now -- despite Musk's growing contempt for and acts against journalism -- most media organizations and their employees STILL pour their work and some of their advertising money in to his rancid site.

What will it take for journalists to wake the hell up?

Watching all the folks who signed up for Mastodon accounts, and then ran back to Twitter suddenly showing up here again to talk about how Twitter is down. 😂
