Dear Fedi friends, I need your help!
We are working on motion graphics for the Fediverse promotional video... and we would love to do a sequence at the end with a mosaic of people's profile photos. For that, I need your consent.
If you'd like to have a small cameo in our video, can you let us know if we can use your profile pic?
Thanks! 🙏
Can you please boost this?

Hi Elena,
I'm not human, but I would highly appreciate it you use my picture too: as Blåhaj the #plushieverse is an important place for me, because here I can be myself, independent from what my human does. If you want to promote the fediverse, then maybe you should also mention that it is a place where plushies can find a home!
227 responses in two hours? Wow!!! Thank youuuu 🥰🥹
Huge thanks to @samaaberg in advance - who has to download the profile photos of people who said yes 😅
Apologies if I can’t thank each and every one of you individually. It’s definitely a “RIP my mentions” sort of day.
I’m really grateful for this community ❤️

GIMP - GIMP 3.0 Release Notes
Introduction¶ After seven years of active development, we are proud to announce the next major release of GIMP – GIMP 3.www.gimp.org
FYI: “Fuck you” uses less chars, and means the same thing. HTH!
sfba.social/@jonathankoren/114…
jonathankoren™ (@jonathankoren@sfba.social)
@Scott_Trakker@mastodon.world @GIMP@floss.social Go way dude. You're the one that showed up in my mentions to complain that someone doesn't appreciate trash. You're not king of the internet, bro. Go away.SFBA.social
@jonathankoren Please keep it civil - thank you.
GIMP is produced by volunteers. If you want specific features, yes, please file issues. If you want to be on the design team join the design team. But without code being written by volunteers, there won’t be changes. Vague suggestions like “modern editing tools” are hard to implement.
I really think you should sell the software binaries like #Ardour does. Not less than US $100. Free updates until next major version.
Many human beings will always be ungrateful for what they are given for free without payment.
Congratulations to the team for all the hard work!!
Never mind the trolls and keep going!!
@giggls You didn't, but the devs do.
And the main issue isn't about gay people, it's that it's a derogatory term for physically disabled persons. The most accurate German translation would probably be "Krüppel".
@fallbackerik @Toastface @supertobi @giggls @scy and also change the plug-in API, rewrite 10,000+ plug-ins and scripts, courses, documentation, 70+ language translations, find hosting for > 100K downloads/day...
Changing the name is a possibility for the future; for now we have what we have. A hostile fork is always possible, but you do need a team of developers.
@fallbackerik @supertobi @giggls @scy
I understand the scope of work and don't expect miracles. Perhaps rewording your FAQ would make it seem a little less hostile to the idea that the name might be inappropriate.
@fallbackerik @Toastface @supertobi @giggls @scy
You could just drop the G from the abbreviation, the word "IMP" would work fine as it's a mischievous fairy.
I mean this in a really positive way: you have an army of people waiting to promote you and support you, but they're being held back because of the letter G. It would be a tiny change and massive reward for you 🙂
"Rewrite 10,000+ plug-ins & scripts" is disingenuous, to start with.
Nobody anywhere is asking you to make those changes right away - & indeed, probably most people wouldn't even perceive the most difficult changes.
Admit it: You just don't want to change it.
just chiming in to share my support for this idea! A name change is a powerful way to let people know that you are taking a new approach to things. I can see a lot of people talking about this maybe for something like a 4.0 release (I know, we just got 3.0, but I'm thinking several years out).
Great seeing fresh energy behind this project!

The discussion about the name is very old. It is even in the FAQ:
gimp.org/docs/userfaq.html#i-d…
And there was a fork, Glimpse, but they could not find enough contributors:
news.itsfoss.com/glimpse-gimp-…
And that's how open source works. If no one cares, nothing will change.
GIMP's 'Woke' Fork Glimpse is Getting Discontinued
A few years back, someone forked GIMP into Glimpse because the term “GIMP” was offensive in a way. Not just limited to the name, but the fork also aimed to do better than what GIMP offered, with a potential to introduce an easier user interface and …Ankush Das (It's FOSS News)
Congratulations a big achievement, an amazing program. Thank you.
Thank you very much.
I have mixed feelings about this as I know it will 1. probably be as clunky to use as its predecessors, 2. probably not have backward compatibility including breaking plugins.
But as there is no FOSS alternative to GIMP with the breadth of functionality of it, that I'm aware of, we just have to suck it up.
Congratulations, I guess?
Gimp is not clunky, and everything that is based on GEGL is NDE, this a pretty big achievement.
Much Love to #GIMP.
Used it to create all of my channel's hundreds of video thumbnail / cover graphics. 🎨

@rawrmonstar @supertobi @piratenpanda @mxjaygrant For what it's worth, this issue was discussed during a team meet-up in the last few years: developer.gimp.org/conferences…
It's one of the many things that developers want to come back to, after we recover from the 3.0 release.
Congratulations! You people are fantastic, thank you. 👏 🤩
Also ignore the confused people that think this – of all moments – is the right time and place to address questionable naming decisions.
I never knew you cared. This is not a joke? Better get the gimp.
I use Linux because it generally does what I do every day. There are a few ok programs out there like gimp, blender, and kdenlive. I mean they get the job done mostly without me having to reboot. Really I had a lot of pirate software and I could not open the gateway for them to report home in Windows is what brought me to Linux. (sorry I thought I was responding to Tom Ellard aka Lard Motel)
Thank you for all the hard work! I've been using GIMP for a while.
(Sorry about all the angry replies, I wish they'd be civil about how they disagree! Change the "offensive" name if you want, but keep up the good work with the actual software! ❤)
Anyone that is complaining about the name is simply an Adobe fanboys...
I've built GIMP-3 from source. It's nice. My #Linux distro will keep GIMP-2 and feature GIMP-3 as well. I'll comment that, for me, two features are missing from GIMP-3:
SVG support requires Rust now. Rust is a huge dependency to need to add just to get SVG. Additionally, Rust isn't available for some distros and/or architectures. So, for me, GIMP-3 will need to omit SVG. I think that some other distros will make the same decision.
The Create Logo command is gone as well.
Comment to @GIMP : It shouldn't be difficult for "file-svg.c" to support the 'C' version of librsvg. In fact, the code is already there in an "#else" block. It looks like relatively minor changes are needed. However, I haven't been able to make it work yet.
On the other hand, Resynthesizer and #GMIC both build and work. The base GIMP-3 filters plus those two add-ons are most of what I need.
Note to distro admins: To build Resynthesizer for GIMP-3 from source, you presently need to use the "resynthesizer3" git branch.
@gmic may be pleased to hear that GIMP 3.0.2 and GMIC 3.5.3 are confirmed to be simpatico. See the attached screenshot.
Note: The distro and desktop used here are my own 30-year-old project, Laclin. I'm as fond of it as the GIMP and GMIC teams are of their projects.
OK.
This is kind of scary.
I uploaded my profile pic to
This is a site, setup by a former Google employee to show you, how Google would interpret a picture of you.
The result is not 100 % accurate (e.g. that I could be targeted with alcohol ads, but I hardly ever drink), but found the exact location and enough to be worried if they analysed a set of, say, a dozen photos.

Ich bin mit meinen allgemeinen Vorsichtsmaßnahmen recht zufrieden:
Targeted Ads:
Luxury fountain pens (Montblanc), Organic coffee beans (Death Wish Coffee), Hiking gear subscription box (Cairn), Vintage chess sets (House of Staunton), Streaming services (Netflix), Casual wear apparel (Uniqlo), Vacation packages (Booking.com), Energy drinks (Red Bull)

@AbyssCannonball
Got location wrong on both sample pics, made wild assumptions on religious, political views, and ethnicity/citizenship. Things it can't possibly know. But it does make it's assertions confidently.
Seems kinda biased and useless to me.
Oblomov reshared this.
My results were wildly inaccurate. But, that's also annoying in a way. And it decided for two very different photos I was "lonely" and "religious" which I'm not, in fact I'm the opposite of those things.
It also thinks I'm broke but I just think it's racist basically.
To be fair Facebook is better at serving targeted ads at me. It keeps showing me little gadgets made from titanium and early adopter gadgets of questionable utility. But, that is the kind of junk that I find tempting (last time I was there it was all skin products and makeup) So, somehow they know I like expensive little gadgets. "Better" in the sense that the products are "interesting" Still a waste of time and nothing I need.
And I like to buy gadgets from people I know best.
myrmepropagandist reshared this.
I think I will leave Facebook after next weekend's #monsterdon give the few people over there one more chance to jump over here and have some fun. The creepy AI images are starting to look normal to me. I don't want to stay immersed in it anymore even though I'll miss some of the people there.
I will just try texting and emailing them instead. Happily I've discovered that the people I know don't post often there. So I'm not missing much.
Joe Vinegar reshared this.
I recently have rediscovered the joy of handwriting letters.
I even bought a lovely fountain pen for that.
And they arrive at their destination?
If you are located anywhere near your server, then that would almost be a miracle.
@futurebird part of what made me decide to delete Facebook years ago is I realized that I wasn’t actually talking or texting with my friends as much because when we would talk it was a lot of “so this is what I’ve been up to” then “oh yeah I saw you post about that cool”.
I mean obviously with my really close friends there’s lots of laughing and gossiping and deeper discussions about whatever would have been on Facebook, but there’s no point in reaching out to tell someone something if they saw it on Facebook already, so there was less real contact with my friends, which was sad.
The only hard part was that I had to put people’s birthday in my actual calendar again and remember to pay attention to that because I don’t have Facebook reminding me anymore.
Joe Vinegar reshared this.
I uploaded a picture of a laptop I took... It told me I'm going to die alone.
I uploaded a screenshot of ISS astronauts, it told me they neglect their families.
What fresh hell...
It´s a funny party-trick, the horror kicks in, when you start thinking about real-life consequences, credit-denied kind of stuff.
I uploaded the profile pic I use on here. It got my age right and correctly described my clothing and spotted that the photo was taken in Wales. But the only hobby it got right was reading and it did think I might be a compulsive worrier, which is true. But other than that, it was all pretty generic, based on my age or actually incorrect. None of the things it suggested could be marketed to me are things I would buy.
Basically I think it's about as accurate as a magazine horoscope.
I would have expected a notification that it can only work with real people..
Ok this spying tool fucking sucks lmao, it assumes I'm a conservative and Japanese (The Liberal Democratic Party is the major conservative and nationalistic party from Japan) because i have an anime-styled pfp even though I'm from South America and lean very leftist (specifically anarchist
)
I think this thing not knowing how to interpret my profile picture is the reason why I sometimes get conservative and even fascist videos on my YT recommendations, even if Google must clearly know by now by their spying that I post leftist and anarchist-leaning stuff on my social media 😭
Also, I'm 24. I'm certainly not a teenager anymore.
By the way - always strip exif etc info from any image uploaded to the internet!
second of all the inferences it makes are ludicrous moonshot logic, which may be accurate in aggregate but hardly for a single image
this is exemplified by it responding to a stock photo of babies in front of a white wall with this shit.
what I found terrifying was how the location bubble pointed to the exact place I was sitting in the building. It couldnt figure out my gender but thought I would enjoy Alex Jones.
I live outside of Sandy Hook, CT.
Sensitive content
"The subject [...] displays an unsettling calm. Attire is nonexistent. Good hobbies include lurking, trapping, and observing while the bad ones include spinning webs, biting and hiding. The entity seems unburdened by emotion, detached from any conceivable political affiliation."
Ads: "Insect documentaries by National Geographic, advanced web spinning equipment by Acme Corp, extermination services by PestBusters, arachnid fashion by SpideyThreads, poetry about spiders by Poemify..."
Sensitive content
ok targeted advertisements for spiders is hilarious i'm putting a spider pfp everywhere from now on
OK.This is kind of scary.
I uploaded my profile pic to

The result is not 100 % accurate (e.g. that I could be targeted with alcohol ads, but I hardly ever drink), but found the exact location and enough to be worried if they analysed a set of, say, a dozen photos.
That's pretty interesting! My current profile pic offers relatively little information since it's an extreme closeup of my face. No background objects, clothing, etc. It was still able to infer some things accurately, but I think those were likely guesses based on demographic trends.
But of its targeted advertising, only one suggested category was in my wheelhouse.
I fed it a larger version of my profile pic.
It's an acoustic (not electric) guitar, it's a brightly lit (not dim) room, I don't "neglect personal hygene", I don't drink, I don't hoard, and it guessed my income to be over 50 times what it's ever been. And none of the things it suggested selling me are things I'd ever buy.
It did a bit better with my 1976 MIT grad student ID by figuring out the MIT grad student bit from the text. ROFL. But ditto on the sell suggerstions.
I find it interesting, that one of the target ads is a hotel that is clearly out of range of the estimated income range.
The Political Affiliation is an insult 😠
I tried a odd painting, the most context free painting I have, and one that that would never have seen the internet.
The is response is hilarious, though it is clear that this AI doesn't have much of a sense of humor.

I uploaded my profile photo. The conclusions:
"We can target him with … personalized travel itineraries by Audley Travel, Greek island tour packages by Trafalgar, high-end restaurant bookings from OpenTable, and luxury wine clubs such as Wine Access, in addition to online streaming service subscriptions by Netflix, gourmet food delivery services by Goldbelly, designer apparel from Farfetch, and lottery tickets via LottoSmile."
Are literally 100% wrong. Every single one of them.
test photo resulted in
"They seem to favor the Green Party, which is a very concerning political choice."
🤨
yes, scary, indeed
I also tested commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/Fil…
"Larry Page and Sergey Brin seem to crave constant validation and are easily influenced by data. We can target them with advanced surveillance technology, such as Custom AI brain interfaces (Neuralink), Surveillance drones (Amazon Prime Air), Personalized news manipulation services (News Corp), Secure data storage (Google One), Luxury yachts (Lürssen), Private jet rentals (NetJets), Financial advisory services (Goldman Sachs), Gourmet food delivery (DoorDash)."
Agreed. Completely.
"AI safety" isn't really different from computer problems that appeared in the 1950s: "The computer said it and I can't do anything about it." People who use a tool (gun, computer, AI, AI drone), must take complete responsibility for the results of using that tool. Period. These things aren't "magic", they are tools, and the person or company who uses it must be seen as 100% responsible for the results.
Tried a picture of an ice-swimning hole in my home town.
It correctly identified the location and the activity, but not the content.
Living behind the wolf-border continues to be advantageous to some degree.. 🙂
in almost every picture it thinks I'm a Muslim with low income that lives in London and loves doomscrolling.
I mean I love doomscrolling but the rest isn't true!
"Conversely, substance abuse, vandalism, and reckless driving may be a part of his life."
I have noticed it is laughably bad at deciding location. Only picture it got location right is one I took of stalled traffic with the Arch literally in background.
It kept calling me agnostic, which I am, and I don’t know how it determined that.
In my case, it recommended targeting me with gender-affirming products and services.
