I'm so sorry!@t_robinart Keine Ursache 😉

It certainly feels that way from the outside. I have used G.I.M.P. and inkscape ages ago before I hade the Adobe CS and the differences in available functions are not that huge, if you don't work with them on a pro level. But text formatting seems to be something not many people are into.😕@t_robinart GIMP? Mit dem hab ich das Problem mit CMYK-Dateien. Geht irgendwie mit dem Separate-Plugin, aber die Mehrarbeit nervt und der Workflow kostet.
Auch bei GIMP ist die Benutzeroberfläche nicht sonderlich geordnet.
Schade, denn wie bei Libreoffice, welches gut Word & Co ersetzen kann, schaffen es manche Projekte einfach nicht, was bedienbares zu programmieren.
Und ich unterstütze OpenSource auch gern durch Spenden.
Leider ist Linux/-Programme auf dem Desktop immer noch eine Nische mit wenig fianziellen Ressourcen für Entwicklung. -

:D
Ich hatte es vor meiner Ausbildung genutzt für so ganz simple Bildbearbeitung. Wie das jetzt nach 10+ Jahren Photoshop funktionieren würde, weiß ich nicht (obwohl ich jetzt auch immer noch nicht wirklich gut in PS bin 😬 ).
Adobe hat einfach den Vorteil schon seit Jahrzehnten mit den Bedürfnissen und Möglichkeiten mitgewachsen zu sein und lange (und ja auch immer noch) das Monopol in dem Bereich und somit die Finanzierung zu haben. Da sehen open source Programme dann alt aus. -
Is there a good alternative for Adobe's InDesign that works on Linux? Since my PC is still broken (and probably won't be fixed, even though the warranty is still going til october), I am thinking about getting rid of Windows.
@t_robinart Scribus can be a bit clunky (definitely not the most refined UI I've ever seen) but if you don't need the most advanced features might actually be worth a look for a desktop publishing tool. I have personally made everything from Christmas cards to club membership magazines using it and it's certainly *usable*.

Another vote for Scribus. I've used this to create real books. Reminds me more of the old Quark XPress than InDesign. It's certainly capable enough. -

Thank you!
"and it's certainly *usable*." sounds like a subtle insult :D -

Thank you!
Ooooo, interesting! Does Scribus have something like pragraph styles? I use them so much and don't know how to work without them (for books, that is). -

It does! All the expected things. Bit fiddly to specify, I think, but also has a tool to edit text seperately as well as in-place. -

Ho parlato con il social media manager del “Tumiturbi” di Varese. Gli ho spiegato il fediverso in 30 secondi. È stato folle. Gli ho lasciato il mio numero. Mi ha detto che mi scriverà. La vedo grigia…

@giuglionasi mi sembra evidente che questo sia un tempo che si muove sulle contraddizioni e sulla disamina delle scelte interpretative delle stesse... Pensa che ciò che preoccupa Trump è oggi l'assenza di democrazia in Iran 😂

Cadono le bombe a Teheran e mi cadono le braccia

Cadono le bombe a Teheran e mi cadono le braccia. Ci risiamo. Invece di finire, le guerre aumentano. Khomeini, il teocrate massacratore dei giovani in cerca di libertà, è morto sotto le bombe. Dovrebbe essere una buona notizia,

La colpa è la mia che mi ostino a provarci.
Hanno seppellito Battiato due volte, riducendo la sua vita e la sua opera con uno storyboard da fotoromanzo.
Per tacere della riduzione a macchietta di tutti i personaggi.
René Ferretti si sarebbe rifiutato.
