Hi there !

I am proud to announce that my lightbox and kamishibai butai designs are now available on Boxes.py ! 🎉

boxes.hackerspace-bamberg.de/K

boxes.hackerspace-bamberg.de/N

The pictures show my creations, both based on the work of @davidrevoy ; licence of the sources is CC-BY (Pepper & Carrot's dragon scene) and CC-BY-SA (goods sharing design from @Framasoft 's 2019 campaign)

So, I make bits of software, mostly plug-ins for platforms like #DaVinciResolve or #Blender, mostly because I have a particular thing that needs doing that no-one has catered to. And I yoik them up to Codeberg and if I'm feeling organised I'll write them up on my blog, so that anyone else that has the same particular need can benefit too. I have no intention of selling them, because marketing stuff is not something I remotely enjoy doing, testing and bug fixing is too time consuming, and because I consider it payment for all the free software I get to use.
Generally I release everything under the #GPL3, because it's the one I know about. I'm not really a #coder, and I'm far less a #lawyer, so I have no idea if this is the best option.
So the question I want to #AskFedi is: what do you do with small #code projects you write? What license do you release them under and why, and how do you go about distributing them?
I've only ever had one or two people fork my code or make PRs, I don't think a lot of people in my industry also code, so everything I do is a solo project. So I'd be interested in how people find collaborators for stuff they do.

Someone has a deep knowledge about GPL licenses? I have an existential doubt.

Certain software I use has been releasing new updates without updating the source code, time keeps passing and they don't update it. This attitude represents a violation of the GPL-3 license? I mean: releasing updates of a supposed open source software without updating or showing the changes of the code.

Hello Dears! The day has come!
It is with great and undisguised joy that I inform you that my Better /kbin browser extension is officially available under the GPL 3.0 with source code, so you can not only make sure that the extension is safe, but also create forks and almost freely modify it to suit yourself.

Cześć Kochani! Nadszedł ten dzień!
Z ogromną i nieukrywaną radością informuję Was, że moje rozszerzenie do przeglądarek Better /kbin jest oficjalnie dostępne na licencji GPL 3.0 wraz z kodem źródłowym, dzięki czemu możecie nie tylko upewnić się, że rozszerzenie jest bezpieczne, lecz także tworzyć forki i prawie dowolnie modyfikować je pod siebie.

@malin
I recently stumbled upon the "One Die System" (German original title "Ein-Würfel-System"), licensed under the #gpl3 and with source files available in a #mercurial repository.

Website:
1w6.org

Mercurial repo:
hg.sr.ht/~arnebab/ews

I am unsure how good the English translation is, however.

I'm slowly developing my own #unix-style #photolibrary application. I licensed it with #GNU #GPL3 license because I want it to be free.

Yesterday night I created automated build pipeline using #Github Actions. It feels so wrong to use proprietary platform to develop #freesoftware . What kind of alternatives there are?

By the way, here's the code:
