The funny thing is that I don't think I've ever actually sent a PPB, lmao.
Great work, it's really funny! @RedWizard@hexbear.net this is what Edie was cooking up!

Haha. Yeah, it's slightly unrealistic in that you probably wouldn't actually ever say that. But this is inspired by the tagline.
Also I had to manually add the PPB because images (and therefore emojies) don't work in dms anymore.

Yea, I wouldn't say it unless it was for a bit like this one, haha. It's a shame images don't work over dms!
Lol fantastic
Hey look it's me 36 seconds in
It seems like I posted this just as hexbear went down, so not that many people saw it

Anyways what should I make next?

Maybe something from another tagline? Hmmm
There isn't any tagline like this one that comes to mind.
ⓘ This user is suspected of being a cat. Please report any suspicious behavior.
Yea, it's unfortunate. None of the other taglines dream of an alternate world.
LOOK AT ME! I AM A FAMOUS ARTIST!
Thank you for using my art.
It's a really good art piece! I wanted it to look slightly more like an actual "socialist distro" as the tagline said, and changing it from the default KDE image was an easy way to do that.

I loved the way you used it exactly for this reason. Whenever I put effort into an original piece I try to depict my own vision of what art would look like in a socialist alternate timeline, seeing someone catch on to that feels quite gratifying.
I do have one minor problem with the image, it has an aspect ratio of 1.74:1, which means I either have to squish it or crop it to fit it into 16:9. Your name in the bottom right get's slightly cut off.

I really need to standardize my aspect ratios and image sizes. I usually just work with 4000x2500 because the numbers look nice.
You could switch to 3840x2160, which is near what you have now but 16:9.

Noted, this will definitely work better. Thank you.
