   no joke she would have singlehandedly caused at least several dozen furries to cancel their Microsoft Office subscriptions

     @thawkade@lethallava.land I agree that cancelling the mascot competition was the worst move the LibreOffice Foundation ever made.

     @anthropy @SuperDicq @thawkade an incredible loss caused by queerphobia but tyson tan's art is amazing and the krita mascot is also gorgeous

     @SuperDicq @thawkade when this originally happened, it severely degraded my opinion of LibreOffice and I honestly just never really got over it. Imagine having such salty whiny anti-furry people in your leadership to do such a thing; after all the support everyone gave it, cancelling the whole competition *just* because they don't like the result. Absolutely mindblowing to me.

     @bebna@chaos.social @FoxbrushTailwag@mastodon.social @garfieldairlines@fedi.garfieldairlines.net @thawkade@lethallava.land I honestly don't care or have any idea about what other people. I like using LibreOffice.

     @garfieldairlines

     Fortunately their super awesome work is still immortalized in various KDE mascots, among them Konqi / Kate and Kiki :)

     Back when I was trying to let Libera(.chat) have a mascot, they would have been one of my favourite two artists to do it. Unfortunately Libera was about as stubborn and conservative about the idea as LibreOffice was, so that mascot never came to life.

     @FoxbrushTailwag @garfieldairlines @SuperDicq @thawkade

     I'm slightly out of touch, so excuse my question but is libre or open office even still relevant?

     Whoever uses MS365 won't really leave it. And "kids these days", ie the main source of new users, use gdocs or no office at all, because other tools do what they can better or much easier. There was also no app version when I last looked into it prequarantine, which is basically a requirement these days to even compete.

     @SuperDicq@minidisc.tokyo @thawkade@lethallava.land I remember how the artist was salty about this (and I fully agree with him he spent some serious effort in this)

     @Cybird@floofy.tech @anthropy@mastodon.derg.nz @thawkade@lethallava.land The true spite move would be to fork LibreOffice in LibbieOffice and actually add the mascot to it.
