There's a great ms paint alternative from KDE called Kolour Paint, which you can grab from the software center.
The LiMux project in Germany had some shady stuff going on in the background. Microsoft almost certainly bribed the new conservative government to switch everything back to Windows. There was a great documentary about it from DW that interviewed some whistleblowers, but I can no longer find it. However, Quidsup on Youtube did a good video encapsulating the course of events.
EDIT: I was able to find the documentary by searching the old title in German, which brought up the original German version, and from there found the English translation!

Love the idea of this. I believe slowly building up these alternative, open-source and decentralized platforms will be pay off long term as the centralized platforms bloat and die via enshittification.
Looking into it; depending on how much time you contribute, you apparently would share in the profit of the store.
It also appears to be taking steps to prevent drop shippers from plaguing the platform like Etsy suffers from, and ensure everything is actually handmade. Personally I like what they're going for, but I'm not a seller.
Quite glad to see Mint looking forward, good on them.
The Godot developers created a new business entity that will facilitate porting games to closed platforms.
Bernie Sanders is pretty spotless if you look at the history of his career. He's consistently stood up and voted for the little guy.
