We have to solve the money problem!

On the Fireside Fedi interview with Jerry ( the admin of Infosec.Exchange Mastodon instance ) a scary truth was suddenly revealed ( on 34:11 ): Just to keep the instance up and running he needs to spend up to $5000 a month, pretty much out of his pocket. Donations to the instance barely cover any of that. And if he will ask people to pay to use it, they will, rightfully so, switch to a different instance.

Pretty impressed with #LibreDraw so far.

I'm trying to make the switch from #Canva and #PhotoshopElements and so far it seems to have what I need.

It's taking a while to find the different tools but I'm getting there. This morning I put together a simple graphic for use on #LinkedIn.

Thanks also to those who suggested #OpenClipArt to help with the move from Canva. It's a tad slow but a decent selection of graphics.
