So glad I'm finally able to What is Krita?.

Our textbooks (in Ukraine) used to include stuff on both windows and linux (specifically, linux mint with cinnamon), and included a chapter on libreoffice/openoffice

It's unfortunate how many replys are missing the good part of this and rather respond with criticism and negativity. We can do better than that folks. This is a good thing!

That is some q u a l i t y textbook right there.

More colorism? Wildly white people in an Indian textbook.

I like seeing the Krita suggestion, but to just call it “open-source” with no clarification on that means would lead me to believe kids would skip over the hyphenated adjective without realizing it is often the key to finding other good, open-source software (e.g. a “open-source alternative to Reddit” query should lead one to Lemmy). I’m hoping it has a section or callout or even a vocab word on another page but I’m skeptical.

(This is putting aside my quarrels with OSI, FSF, SPDX for the larger picture)

That's some good application choices right there

I've never heard of Krita before, and now twice in one day. Please tell me why?

Are there any school textbooks out there that have poeple in them that don't look creepy?
