I’m pleased to report that the maintainer of the photo gallery app Fotema seems to be an excellent person.

Folks, we have a great photo app on Linux because one person was inspired by @sophie’s work and @TheEvilSkeleton’s writings.

Glue people matter, free software is much more than code.

Just paid my yearly subscription to @sophie. She does excellent work on Pika Backup, the app that makes it simple to backup all important files to an external drive, freeing us from cloud providers.

But Sophie also tackles systemic problems and works on enabling others. She's a technical expert but she also works on making @gnome a great platform to develop for.

I pay $60/year for all her great work. Who will top that?

I recently underwent surgery and I expected to pay for it in full. My health insurance is actually covering a third of it.

I guess that means more donations for FOSS projects!
