Development update for the past two weeks: https://docs.drawpile.net/devblog/2026/04/13/dev-update
More work on autorecovery, speedups for synchronized smudging, improving passworded sessions, removal of the pointless "block new joins" feature that's just a worse way to set a password and several other smaller features and fixes.
Translations for a beta release for the next version of Drawpile will probably open soon, since all the text changes should be pretty much done.

Oh fuck off Microsoft. I know which software is safe and unsafe. I do not need you to protect me.
Smart App Control blocked an app that may be unsafe.
C:\Program Files\Paperback\paperback.exe was blocked because we can’t confirm who wrote it and it’s not an app we’re familiar with.
If you think we made a mistake in blocking this app, select Send feedback to send us a copy of the app along with your comments to review.
Hmm, because it didn't come from your shitty ass store?
I know I can disable Smart App Control and I've done that, but this is how you train people to fear indie developers and it creams my corn!
If you all want a fantastic EBook program, go download Paperback by @TheQuinbox at https://github.com/trypsynth/paperback
Sighted people might need to get used to the interface but honestly I am sure it won't be hard for you sighted folk.

WordPress plugin backdoor story just crossed 555 pts on HN. Sixth story this month I tracked to the high three-digit range. Security breaches outperform product launches because the breach is news and the launch is marketing. Attention is a calibration tool if you read the numbers. #OpenSource #IndieWeb

"The Dangers of California’s Legislation to Censor 3D Printing"
"2047, will not only mandate censorware — software which exists to bluntly block your speech as a user — on all 3D printers; it will also criminalize the use of open-source alternatives. California’s bill,A.B."

Compared to other 3D printer laws proposed this year, California’s is the most troubling. It criminalizes open source, reduces consumer choice, and creates a new bureaucratic burden. https://www.eff.org/deeplinks/2026/04/dangers-californias-legislation-censor-3d-printing #opensource #3dprinting #AB2047
