What Adobe is doing with the cancellation of Animate should be illegal. Animators are livid atm.

Unfortunately most foss tools aren't as good as Animate to replace it (no, Grease Pencil doesn't quite do the same and Krita/Synfig/Pencil2d/OpenToonz aren't as feature-rich), but Moho is an excellent piece of software. First created for the #BeOS back in 1999, I remember using it back then. In 2007 it even had a #Linux version.

I replaced FreeDOS with Haiku OS on my Compaq netbook. A far more pleasant install experience. #freedos #haikuos #beos Also stickered it up. 😁

Very inspired to do my website like, but instead honoring BeOS https://posthog.com/

🔮 The Great Illusion: When We Believed BeOS Would Save the World (And Maybe It Was Right) – Desktop On Fire!

｢ Imagine: instead of OS X based on NeXTSTEP, we would have had an Apple system based on BeOS. No decades-old Unix cruft, no Mach kernel heavy as an elephant, but an operating system born for multimedia, elegant as a Lamborghini and fast as… well, as a Lamborghini ｣

✅ The BeOS file system, an OS geek retrospective

｢ One of BFS's most important and widely touted features is its support for extended attributes. An example of the importance of attributes is illustrated with an example of MP3 files. Information fields important to an MP3 file would be: song title, band, album, release date, encoding rate, length, number of times played ｣
