Pleased to announced v3.
Something wasn't sitting right. A friend we miss, Freed Creative, said rounded edges suit fedi better, we went and tried that and it solved our annoyance. Also improved the colours of 'party' version, and shapes generally.
Now also with both an on-light and on-dark sticker.

Hashtags really are important on #fediverse.
For many, its the way they'll find you. New users may neglect #Fedi because they can't find similarly-minded folks.
1) Start using hashtags!!!!
2) Let #newUsers know how important #hashtags are. Post about your primary hashtags/#topics + PIN THE TOOT.
3) Don't set your toots to disappear after months unless you have a *very* good reason. Unsure? Ask your admin whether the instance deletes posts after months. Ask to make it YEARS!!

Thinking of leaving the city?
If you trust us and our instance feel free to indicate whether you are interested in leaving the city for a more #rural/#agrarian life. Please include a description of yourself that you might feel comfortable with us sharing to the other person, and the kind of person/activities you might be looking for, the to move out for.
We will try to offer this kind of #matchmaking.
Ideally just for #Australia but are okay with matching people anywhere for now.

Today we learned first-hand, that #Wikipedia discriminates against artists based on political beliefs. They have no integrity.
They've now #activelyDeleted all our #artwork and contributions towards the #fediverse, insofar as our contributions to a modern #fediverseIcon, #sticker designs and graphics for #designers.
This is sick.
This is a call out to all webmasters to help us serve the content, we can email it, you can choose to share it.

@dsfgs It is irresponsible to spread such FUD. No such thing is happening. Mastodon remains AGPLv3. It is practically impossible to change the license even if there was a desire or reason for it, which there isn't. See our legal action with Gab and Truth Social.

@Gargron
Thanks for responding,
That memecion server has been a highly visible perpetrator for a long time. All we ask is they be served the same compliance notice as TruthSocial. Picking and choosing who we enforce the license with will not fly in any future legal preceding.
We must nip this in the bud, the next weeds will be worse.
This should not be controversial.

Design your own KDE sticker! We are looking for new images to include with the #Akademy2022 stickers.
Send us your design and you could win the #Akademy2022 goodie bundle, with the official T-shirt and, of course, the stickers.

Need the word "activist" in there somewhere, as most people are pushing agendas in FOSS projects, espesherly when they think they are not.
I understand the #NGO idea of taking "politics" outa tech. it's a BAD idea and the outcomes are BAD, good to work with this problem.

We produced How-To-Draw for the #fediverseIcon.
It was produced completely without measurements and somehow we produced it at #A4 (1mm off — ie. 211mm rather than 210). We produced it for the web anyway — so don't even think about #printing it!

HOW #WEST SAYS, "Go kill yourself" in the most #diplomatic way possible…
When asked if arming #Ukraine was prolonging the war, #NATO's chief, #JensStoltenberg said, "We help them because they're asking for it."
He adds "Throughout #history we've seen #nations willing to accept great #sacrifice for freedom."

US: How did #cronobacter bacteria get into #babyFormula and several products produced by #Abbott?
Apparently, in February 2022 Abbott, which reportedly controls about 40% (!) of the market, did a #recall of products produced in #Michigan, when the #FDA found infants dying or admitted the hospital after consumption.
The cronobacter #bacteria, dangerous in #infants, can reportedly cause #sepsis or #meningitis and #bowelDamage.
Abbott reported the bacteria found throughout the Michigan facility.
KARL: Why did you go 'all in' Ukraine?
KONNIE: The complimentary colours looked really nice on my profile page. Also matches my existing #beachFront shack #decor, so…
KARL: How bad is it going to get?
CONSTANCE: *shrugs*
KARL: Maybe I need to rephrase. How long are we going to go without a Universal Basic Income?

This is spot on. I've seen so much "purism" in FLOSS projects too over the years - from devs bragging about the lack of documentation to the lack of a UI. Eventually their elitism plays a big role in keeping good software away from interested users.
Person still using Ggle Chr'me against #recommendations asks why their browser is so slow sometimes.
How about listen to your peers that study this stuff. Dammit.
The reason Aral blocked us is because he kept repeating the same #antiBitcoin tropes, without addressing our rebuttals and we asked if he had a #bot doing that.
Then he blocked us.
We've had a couple people ask if we were a bot for using hashtags, but we didn't lash out excessively.
Can anyone explain what the long-term #sideEffects of *not* helping to produce #refugees in other countries might be?
Asking as an #Australian?
