Designed a logo for the incredibly feature-rich FOSS text editor: CudaText

Sat, 27 Feb 2021 00:02:05 +0300

Modern logos tend to be simple and flat without any 3d aspect to it. ... The symbol in the logo kind of looks like an angle bracket (<) we use on code (esp. HTML) when looked from a distance. And when you look close, you get an idea that it's actually a "C", which is for CudaText.

I've posted this on the project's forum. Let's see what everyone thinks.

Showing a LibreWolf browser window running gtranslate webpage (gtranslate.metalune.xyz). An English string of "Hello guys!" has been translated into Spanish "¡Hola, chicos!" by the interface.

#FOSS frontend for Google Translate:
➡️ https://gtranslate.metalune.xyz/

+ Doesn't require Javascript
+ Has all the languages
+ Simple UI
+ Google can't track you*
+ Can be self hosted or even be run on your own machine
- Doesn't have language Auto detect

Code:

* May depend on input. If you self host, use TOR.
** I would recommend trying ➡️ https://libretranslate.com first, then this.

Just found Lagrange:

Lagrange is a desktop GUI client for browsing Geminispace. It offers modern conveniences familiar from web browsers, such as smooth scrolling, inline image viewing, multiple tabs, visual themes, Unicode fonts, bookmarks, history, and page outlines.

Best thing is it's written in C and coded to use less dependencies.

Features

Its features are impressive for a #gemini client:
- Beautiful typography using Unicode fonts
- Autogenerated page style and Unicode icon for each Gemini domain
- Smart suggestions when typing the URL — search bookmarks, history, identities
- Sidebar for page outline, managing bookmarks and identities, and viewing history
- Multiple tabs
- Identity management — create and use TLS client certificates
- Audio playback: MP3, Ogg Vorbis, WAV
- And more! Open about:help in the app, or see help.gmi

Download

It has binaries for Win, Mac and Linux. For Linux they have an Appimage btw
https://git.skyjake.fi/skyjake/lagrange/releases

Got it from @jl4 (~(-_( ~_~)_-)~) on Mastodon
EDIT: Changed repo url to Gitea one
