yes. And as usual, I prefer "eat that frog" and keep funniest part for the last.

@Slylele do you know deepl.com? It‘s really handy to help with translations. (Better than google translation in most of the cases).

Hey @woolishboy welcome.

@Slylele Feel free to focus on the sewing documentation. I am not saying privacy settings aren't important, but it's probably a minority of people who actually reads them ;)

Slylele

@Slylele

Thank you for the site recommendation @stoffsuchti ; it really helps!

I know @joostdecock but I think it's important, even if I'm aware that most of people don't read that, but it's kind of foundations... I've good hope I can finish today :)

@Slylele

Hello, someone mentioned freesewing.org on Mastodon and then I found my way here.

I don't really fit with other sewing communities on the web so I'm rather pleased at how different this seems.

@stoffsuchti

Welcome @aka-vamp_gitlab perhaps it was me, i‘ have a sewing related mastodon account

Joost De Cock

@joostdecock

Good to see you @aka-vamp_gitlab 👋😀

@aka-vamp_gitlab

Might have been, @stoffsuchti, if you have a different handle there?

my username here is incredibly awkward, I'm guessing that's a gitlab thing?

Joost De Cock

@joostdecock

If you sign up with a identity provider that is not github, you get that added to your username.

So you have people with a _twitter suffix, or in your case, and _gitlab suffix.

It's nothing to worry about :)

@aka-vamp_gitlab

stoffsuchti

@stoffsuchti

When i click on Follow, it gets blue for a fraction of a second and then it turns grey again

I don‘t know what i‘m doing wrong

aka-vamp

@aka-vamp

Whoa, yeah thats weird

Best I can suggest is talk to your admin

From freesewing/freesewing.org#378 :

Perhaps for issues like this, we can setup an RFC repo. 
Gatsby has one and it's essentially just a repo where you write an RFC, 
submit it as a PR, and then world+dog can comment on it until 
a consensus (hopefully) emerges.

Please share your thoughts on this :)

(realizing now it's a bit inception-like to ask people to share their thoughts on whether or not we should ask people to share their thoughts)

I can see the (potential) confusion with these names. This is probably the first time I'm actually looking at these parts on the site.

To me a Pattern is the description/definition of a garment. So a Pattern as we're using the term on the site makes sense to me.

A Recipe is something that describes a food product. I know that you can use it for chemical processes, medical drugs, etc. Or in the way of a recipe for success. But that is not what comes to mind when I see the term on a site like this (caveat: English as second language, 25 years).

Now I'm not sure what term we should use for a personal derivative of a generic Pattern.

My Pattern makes sense to me

I’m guessing no matter what we do we will need a walk through with screen shots and or a video to make it more consumable.

I see what you did there. Now we're back to recipes.
