Technical debt - Just crappy code or a conscious decision?

In my opinion, we should not call every code that is bad "technical debt" (And, AFAICR, @GeePawHill recently wrote we should retire the term completely) Unfortunately, most people use the it like that...

I recently found out - completely by accident - that a friend of mine opened a type foundry (sadly we have not been in touch much for a long time).

The first font she published there... is named after me. My goodness blobcatmeltcry Here's a link to the shop https://libraryofnarrativetypes.xyz/fonts/lnt-natalia-mono

Do check out her works at https://libraryofnarrativetypes.xyz/. Nóra is the most talented, thoughtful and hard working designer I'm honored to be friends with 🤍

Gotta love good ol' 1-bit pixel dithering (ordered, Floyd-Steinberg, etc.) 💚

Okay here is my very simple concept for a #FediCard - a "business card" that encourages people to join the #Fediverse and links to @_elena 's explanatory video.

My idea is that people can hand these out at #protests, political organizations, and so forth - where politically active people gather who already have had bad experiences with commercial social media.

The back side could be customized further to list an instance which is most relevant to the place where you want to share them - for example, I want to print a variant for the gruene.social #Mastodon instance.

I will certainly try to apply my meagre #design skills to make this more appealing, but first I wanted to hear what you all think of this concept, and what your suggestions for improvement are.

(Note: If you want to play around with the design, I have made it available in #SVG / #Inkscape format. The template has the 85 x 55 mm size for European business cards, so you will want to adjust it for other regions.)
