The artwork explores a near future where the Aus govt has recognised they have no power to stop the surge in fake online content and digital services, so have launched a new govt body to manage the fallout.

Nice! Working on something similar but for scribbles sent to me by my brother. What's the display?

Surprised to see GitHub links for those people. Where do they link to?

Next up is replacing Spotify with Jellyfin+Symfonium (buying music from BandCamp and ripping my old CDs).

I also replaced PocketCast with AntennaPod just because it's fully open source so why not? Couple of bugs, but no less than PocketCast.

The listing page of all the artworks in particular was literally unreadable this year. I ended up building my own version of the program so I could see what's on.
