Having a very nice time at #LibreGraphicsMeeting :) I wonder if there's a similar event for audio? I know about #AudioDeveloperConference but I'm pretty sure it's not specific to free software. Also I like the fact that LGM is focused both on the developer- and the user-facing side (to some extent), whereas ADC is explicitly targeted towards developers
*That* #LibreGraphicsMeeting announcement is public now, so...
Photos from my travels to Nuremberg for the #LibreGraphicsMeeting. The first photo is from a workshop at LGM, in this moment a demonstration of using an ink plotter and a joystick to play a game of worm on paper!
The jaw dropping sculpture is in Frankfurt, but it was on the way to Nuremberg. And the 4th photo is a monument to the Universal Declaration of Human Rights, something I didn't even know existed until I was 25 or so! ...the declaration I mean, the monument I only just learned of.
Moving away from proprietary software is especially difficult for artists, since many of us are trapped within the #adobe ecosystem.
This is why I find #LGM2025 so exciting and hopeful!
Thankfully the organizers have made the conference videos available outside of #evilcorp #youtube etc to #peertube

Aaaand last recording cut, will be online in ~20 minutes.
Thank you to all the speakers, volunteers and everyone else that made the #LibreGraphicsMeeting a really nice event to be at. Maybe we'll see each other again next year :)
Until then, enjoy watching all of the nice talks. We'll sure rewatch some of them ourselves! https://media.ccc.de/c/lgm2025

Libre Graphics Meeting has doors and windows open; ventilation is quite good here at the moment.
My Aranet4 shows C02 currently at 536 ppm.
(I forgot to bring it along until now.)
Hopefully nobody smokes near the doors again like the other days. 😉
