I made a lot of progress with becoming digitally independent and #foss within the past few months: switching from google docs to markup editors for my diaries and creative writing, learning hugo to build websites for my art and comic, downloading more music instead of streaming it, moving from google drive and cloud based apps to syncthing, and getting into mastodon. I wonder what's next..

Opening your art to free culture with Creative Commons licenses maybe?
@davidrevoy At the moment I don't see how my art could be used by others even if I do that. It's usually low/medium resolution, messy and unpolished, and on very specific subjects. 🤔

- Visibility: with permission, resharing and reusing is more fluid.
- Conservancy: high resolution can be hosted on the web, downloaded and duplicated.
- Surprise: reusage can be surprising and an opportunity to meet new creators ready to use our 'sandbox' of artworks.
- Jobs: More and more non-profit org, small company are looking for artist understanding free culture.
- Not locked: Your work doesn't have NDA or ©; you can reuse on your own portfolio or print merch.
