I guess it’s a big blow against the macOS gaming community (if there is one), but Whisky is giving up. AFAIK, it was a wrapper around GPTK, but the maintainer gave up.
Can’t blame him, since it was unpaid, and he is a student. It got the bitter taste that an open source community practically works for free for a giant tech company such as Apple.

Linux and open source demolish capitalist myth that profit drives innovation. Some of the world's most vital software being built by volunteers as opposed to corporations proves that humans create interesting things for the sake of curiosity and joy. When profit becomes the primary motive, you get ads, not Apache; microtransactions, not MySQL. Real innovation thrives when we're free to build, not just bill.
Looks like “embrace, extend, extinguish” is alive and well at #Microsoft, and the legalities of doing so be damned. #OpenSource #CorporateAbuse https://philiplaine.com/posts/getting-forked-by-microsoft/

How did Fedora Linux get its start? While some of us have been and around the block (and have the CD boxes to prove it), here is a brief history of how Fedora came to be for those who want to learn. :)
Getting Forked by Microsoft https://philiplaine.com/posts/getting-forked-by-microsoft/ The author details his frustration over Microsoft seemingly creating a derivative of his open-source work. He raises concerns about their collaboration methods and asks, "How can a solo open-source developer work with multi-billion dollar corporations without being taken advantage of?" Microsoft has a long history of as an evil corporation. I'm not surprised at all. We know it well. Search for "EEE" ;)

Big step for digital sovereignty in Germany!
We’re excited to see that BWI and ZenDiS have signed a 7-year agreement to bring open-source collaboration tools to the public sector.
As part of the openDesk suite, solutions like Collabora Online support secure, transparent, and fully sovereign document editing and collaboration – without relying on proprietary platforms.

I wrote strata to save myself a ton of time, and maybe it can help you too!
Check it out: https://github.com/retran/strata
It lets you draw all model textures consistently in one layered PSD and export them directly for #GodotEngine.
Yes, it added #Python to my build pipeline, but totally worth it!
Anyway, strata can also be used as a standalone tool – see the releases on GitHub.
