My 16-year-old OCaml toy project is now on opam! 🎉
Fractals from iterated function systems: the Barnsley fern, a sunflower built on the golden angle, Queen Anne's lace, an eight-armed rune star.
opam install ifs-fractals
Submitted yesterday evening, merged early this morning, with a kind word from the maintainer. It's really fast. The OCaml community is a lovely place.

* More privacy-friendly bookmarks page
Plus UX improvements across bookmarks, forms, and charts.
I installed latest version of #PostmarketOS (edge) with #KDE plasma. #NeoChat is a nice #Matrix client supporting multiple accounts.
Very nice little concert from EMAVS (https://www.emavs.fr) in a wonderful setting!

- Support for hiding/revealing messages in PCM .wav files
- Added shi_tomashi generator support in stegano-lsb CLI
