This is just a shout out to acknowledge the fact that there are a lot people out
there who, in spite of worries about home, family and jobs, in these especially
difficult times, *still* manage to significantly advance the software we all
rely on.
As one of the 'Idle Poor' (retired), I don't lose sight of the fact that this
is
a considerable effort on their part, for which there are few thanks.

Say you have a poem and I have a tune.
Exchange them and we can both have a poem, a tune, and a song.

I can only chime in! It is a good time to say thanks, it is very much
appreciated! Without the open source environment on my Linux system I wouldn't
make music at all. Especially in my case, I am particularly grateful to the
people who started by developing accessible software or especially created
accessible interfaces. That way I have been able to express myself for a long
time and am still taking part in the world of music!
Best wishes,
Jeanette

Hear, hear! Wonderful proof that "free" is not a synonym for
"valueless".
Also 'Idle Poor' (retired) here but happy to occasionally sprinkle a few
beans to developers of software I find particularly useful.

Hey all,
just adding to the choir of thanks!
I used to develop much more than I do now, as I focus more on the arts, but
nevertheless I always enjoyed being a small part of this community.
More importantly, my whole artistic and musical career has been (and it
still is) possible thanks to the work being done in the linux audio
community.
Big UP!

Since Will did not specify that this has to be about audio, I want to give
a shout out to the team that works on Krita <https://krita.org/en/>.
Stunning software.

Agreed--together we are making a profound difference. I maintain
even those who simply use libre software are helpful to the cause
(but hopefully all do what they can to improve things).
