One of the #Fosstodon moderators, Carrotcypher, has a history of hostility and intolerance towards minorities that does not align with Fosstodon's stated values.

Drawpile 2.3 is gonna add a Pigment blend mode, based on MyPaint's. It makes the paint mixing more "realistic", e.g. mixing blue and yellow will result in green instead of a dull gray.

I know there's some people that are very enthusiastic about this stuff. If you are or know someone that is and got a better curve or whatever to use, give a poke somewhere.

For some reference, these are the curves from MyPaint, the T matrix is to go from spectral to linear RGB and the three other arrays are to go from linear RGB to spectral: github.com/mypaint/mypaint/blo

MyPaint has some documentation about it and what I think is a curve generation script or something: github.com/mypaint/mypaint/tre

(To pre-emptively answer some things. I'm not into this stuff, your gradients wont tell me anything, just give me numbers and I can check how it looks when I plug them in. Yes I know of the Krita merge request and spectral.js, they're unusably slow because they do like over 80 calculations instead of 10. Yes I know of Mixbox, it can't be used for anything because it's under a stupid license.)

#tootlog script is working again. Had to just remove #fosstodon from the accounts that toot was logged into, as toot whoami doesn't seem to work anymore once your account is migrated out :'(

I think I will update the script to give a sum for each account, as well as a total. I probably won't present that level of details in my toots, though.

63% of my followers are #discoverable, only 34% are #indexable (by #searchengines). Most new followers are still coming from my prev. #mastodon #instance, #fosstodon.org. Might be the local timeline, it was way more interesting/less random than here.

Want to know about your followers, too? Check out this tool I’ve built (hosted on the #IPFS). It’s a non-commercial side project; not collecting any data – simply sharing what I’ve built:

(Last plug for a while, I promise)
