Ok, lets do an honest and normal intro. Grey muzzle/long tail, aegosexual painted dog based in the STL metro, was married until my husband passed July 2025. Work as a gig courier, the new big thing in gig driving work, think UPS work driving my own car and using my phone. Trying out Wafrn as Tumblr has always been my favorite social media. If it has a RSS feed reader and Diaspora compatibility, I'm sold… And those are feature requests if not.
Some FOSS #software is pretty darned good in some or most respects, but then you run into a sharp edge or missing battery that makes you #facepalm.
The #GIMP, besides the #problematic name, has one such. It is widely lauded for its abilities when #printing images. I don't print much in the way of photography or fine art, so it's not something I personally notice, but a lot of people swear by it.
However, if you search the web for "how to print a large #image over multiple #pages", you will find that the only way to do it is to cut the image up into separate, smaller images, and then each chunk can be printed to a page. You have to basically do this by hand (there's a function that can chop an image into pieces according to your settings, but that's it as far as automation goes), and if you want to fit the resulting pages together, you've got to make sure you preserve the DPI across multiple images, and ensure there's no overlap or missing bits, etc.
There are a ton of results for people looking for how to accomplish this, and all the replies are "You can't, do it by hand". Considering how trivial the necessary operations are for a computer, it's a #bizarre#omission.

Using mbin to follow microblog contents is super. However, a fundamental feature of microblogs are hashtags and the ability to follow them. It's super nice, especially in the fediverse spirit, because it allows users to have posts coming from outside social bubble. ...
I would like to have a softer variant of muting, where someones toots will not appear in my timeline, but I can see their (private or public) mentions and otherwise interact normally with them. Somewhat like anti-following, if you get what I mean?
