Matthias has been hard at work implementing a way to render SVG icons with animations in GTK4: https://blogs.gnome.org/gtk/2025/10/23/svg-in-gtk/
Hey gang! We're now at over 450 SVG icons on #SuperTinyIcons
Each one is *under* 1KB. That's right, a max file size of 1,023 Bytes 🙂
Someone pointed out that we don't have our own logo - so if you'd like to suggest one, get cracking:
I've manually gone through all 464(!) icons and found about 25 which need updating.
If you'd like to help with a little bit of SVG Code-Golf - you can get stuck in at https://github.com/edent/SuperTinyIcons/issues?q=is%3Aissue%20state%3Aopen%20label%3AUpdate

Want Inkscape's Multi-page to work in web browsers (and other tools)?
Well my work today has been on moving our inkscape:page element to the SVG standard "view" element. Already supported in web browsers and hopefully supported someday in SVG viewers that use librsvg (are you interested @federicomena ?)
This will need testing and a migration for older data too. But I like more standards compliant files and less custom stuff in inkscape's svg.

If you are drafting figures for a scientific paper or presentation, remember that https://scidraw.io/ exists: a repository of free SVG cartoons for science.

My small act of #resistance against the #enshittification of the web today has been to use client-side #XSLT for something different that #RSS styling: generating multiple #SVG plots from the same #XML data:

Ten years ago they tried this shit with #SMIL
https://groups.google.com/a/chromium.org/g/blink-dev/c/5o0yiO440LM/m/YGEJBsjUAwAJ
the web standard for JS-less animations and interactions that can be used to build interactive #SVG graphics. That one was luckily aborted. Now it's time to put pressure on them to keep #XSLT in.
We have a new person doing the Inkscape challenges this month and I was wondering if you guys would throw them a bit of attention for their first one? Draw a boat using #inkscape 🚣
