Secret accidental MuseScore logo reference. It's got the 'Muh' and the 'All'. If you don't get it, don't worry. It's dumb.

While researching FOSS design, one concept I'm pondering - to overcome scattered UX confusion - is the idea of annual elections for a Product Design lead to oversee wider UX coherence. If they do well, they get re-elected. Does anyone know of similar concept in FOSS organisation?

I know folk may be temped to think this is an AI thing. But no, this is an image of my great grandfather, also named Martin. Blew my mind when I saw it for the first time today.

If you run or manage a FOSS project, I'd love to chat. Specifically, I'm interested in how you approach large-scale organisation. How do you maintain code quality & consistency? How do you attract new contributors? etc. If interested, please contact me: [email protected]

I'm lost for words. The UK PM needs to assure Ukraine's leader that they'll defend them against misinformation coming from...... the US?!? It's usually not hard to work out the transactional tactic Trump is using to get what he wants but in this case, I'm drawing a blank.

If you were exporting an SVG from MuseScore and saw a checkbox option titled: 'Masking compatibility (Adobe Illustrator only)', what would you think it means?

We had a lovely moment when testing MuseScore 4.5 today: three features working beautifully together: - Large time signatures - Being able to specify multiple system objects on the score (rehearsal marks, etc.) - Automatic masking when objects touch bar lines

Asking Illustrator to generate AI vector graphics for me is so contrary to the purpose of the app, I'd never consider it... however, out of curiosity, I asked it to create a tombstone for me. FFS. This is what sent their valuation sky high last year?

MuseScore Studio will soon have proper automatic cutaway capability, so lyrics, dynamics, etc. will no longer collide with bar lines!

Chat GTP's version of the circle of fifths. This has to be the most amazing music-related image I've seen it produce! Unearthed by PanMan on our Discord server. THANK YOU for this 😂

First proper pass of new sans serif narrow time signatures for large display on film scores. We wanted to avoid the 'take a free font and just squeeze it to look narrow' approach, which sucks. Maddeningly difficult to create tho. Typography is hard.

A neat little workflow improvement we designed for MuseScore Studio a while ago that a community contributor is close to completing. Works really well!

Facebook's transition to the new order in Washington is well underway. Nick Clegg just resigned. Not a surprise, given his centrist leanings. He's been replaced by Joel Kaplan, well known to Trump. Dana White now has a place on FB's Board. New era indeed. My vid on FB: youtu.be/MPyJBJTHyO0?...
