Can’t stress enough just how important number one is. Second item completely optional

I would also recommend lemmy. It’s more established, has a strong community footing. And above all, it seems to be well written (in terms of code) and has tons of clients (UIs/apps). And like the other comment says, I’m not convinced about the performance of piefed

I need to stock up for the damage time, but it’s the same situation as the “just need to get started” meme

Maybe LibreOffice Draw can help you out? It has PDF editing capabilities
