Just saw this lists feature in Mastodon, but do not get how they actually work. Does anyone know it? 😃 #mastodonhelp

Drucker & Linux: Habt ihr da eine Empfehlung?
Ich kenne https://www.openprinting.org/printers, aber da finde ich keine Informationen, welche Drucker da aktuell sind bzw. überhaupt irgendwie verfügbar sind.
