Happy 25th anniversary, Krita!

@lanodan Hey, that's something I learned this evening thanks to the comments of the KDE dev Carl Schwan: for the distro who still have X11, it's possible to get Plasma 6, X11 and the old tablet plugin running on the top.
I even saw screenshots about it on the Pepper&Carrot Matrix channel.
That's a good news because it widen the amount of distro usable in production, the one who already ship Plasma6 and keep X11.

@jrredho "the transition to KDE Plasma 6 will also include dropping support for the X11 session entirely, leaving only Plasma Wayland as the sole offered desktop mode. "

sources: https://docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/fedora/latest/release-notes/desktop/ (but it's released, so you can also read many reviews and videos about F40 KDE and test it in a VM).

@halla :blobcatheart: Hey, take the time you need for the Qt6 port, I now have a home to run Krita as it is until 2028. I remember the old ports in the past (Qt3 to Qt4, etc) and how they are massive work. Take care!

Here is my new GNU/Linux distribution guide about Debian KDE 12, the right GNU/Linux distribution for professional digital painting in 2024! Also about three major problems with GNU/Linux distros that will drive away all professional artists, IMO, and how I got kicked out of the Fedora KDE ecosystem with F40, which imposed Plasma6 and Wayland. I hope it helps other artists here!

@Mensogo Hey, that's right. I always had my heart for copyleft licenses; but I decided for Pepper&Carrot to use the CCby for various reasons. The switch for CCBySa and reasons on MiniFantasyTheater will be the topic of a blog post; I need more text to detail the multifactor reasons and report the issues I had with CCBy on 10 years of Pepper&Carrot and what I'll try to avoid this time.

@andresbravo2003 Thank you, I'll also continue to maintain the website even after the 42th episode will be published and provide support for the translation years after the ending. We plan to move our chat and dev forge to a more generic name, maybe "Hereva" for the common world at the root of Pepper&Carrot and Mini Fantasy Theater.

@me_the_fl00f @andresbravo2003 That's a good idea for a domain name. 👍 I'll bookmark.

@me_the_fl00f @andresbravo2003 Argh, unfortunately for me I had a check: very pricey on Gandi (not the first year but then, 60€ per year!) I prefer to skip the idea; too bad 😆 .

@tusooa Hey Tusooa :blobcheerbounce: Thank you for the report! I see I made a 'hack' for the Arabic (first one in the list on the screenshot, also RTL) thanks to https://framagit.org/peppercarrot/website-2021/-/blob/main/core/mod-menu-lang.php?ref_type=heads#L249 , It shouldn't be hard to also add Farsi [fa] to the list with this exception. I'll write a bug report so next time I tweak the website I'll not forget. Thanks!
