If you refuse to understand I’ll just refuse to engage further then, keep wasting your time on pointless discussions on free software built by volunteers and what they spend their time on. I’ll go back to actually working on them in whatever way I can.

Is the meme wrong?

Yes, it is.

basic functionality that should be in gnome in the first place

Who gets to decide what’s “basic” functionality? Each desktop’s team has their vision for what they want to implement. Something that might be basic to one person might not be in someone else’s vision or…

the devs don’t want to implement

…is being worked on but needs design. GNOME is design-oriented. It doesn’t matter how much you scream that something needs implementing if no one designs how that implementation will work and why it should be implemented in the first place. It’s not about “not wanting”, it’s about making sure that when something is implemented, that it’ll work well both now and in the future.

Note : I’ve barely used gnome in my life so it’s based on memes I’ve saw about gnome

and it shows

hopefully he didn’t get seriously hurt

it’s available in the current stable version, just behind an about:config flag, will edit this one later on with the one when I get the time to get back on my machine

edit: took a while but I believe it’s browser.translations.select.enable that enables it

it’s a project with a cohesive idea of what it wants to build, to a certain extent they are perfectly right to stand with “their way or the highway”

this isn’t an apple thing, it’s just that in the operating system market there isn’t any other example of someone having a defined idea of what they want to build

KDE tries to be all of those things, but trying to cast too wide of a net just gets you a mess of settings and unfortunately buggy experience overall

small edit: I have a ton of respect for the KDE devs, I just realized I’ve been sounding too negative about them, I just don’t like the end product

it’s something I’ve been pointing out for almost half a decade now, the main problem with KDE isn’t any of the bugs, it’s the lack of vision of what the project wants to be

it ends up being a mix of windows with now GNOME’s design due to it never being able to say no when people want “more features and more preferences”

It’s the ideal solution morally-wise, but it still samples out a ton of users precisely because people are used to the idea of telemetry = bad

Read what I said again. It is not automatically bad, and it doesn’t mean it can’t be poorly used or poorly understood by the ones collecting it. It just means that it is an effective way to understand how your users are using your product.

Putting Mozilla (which from what I can tell is doing as much as they can trying to collect this telemetry data in a way that can’t be used to identify its users) in the same domain as Microsoft, which collects pretty much everything it can to sell to third party advertisers is ridiculous as best and disingenuous at worst.

People really need to kill that notion that telemetry is automatically bad. If the information they are collecting is minimal, as non-identifiable as possible and actually being used to help develop the browser, it’s a good thing.

Yes, turbo nerds in the back, specially being opt-out, opt-in telemetry is pretty much useless for trying to understand the majority of your user base.

I personally see as benefiting us Linux users by forcing the rare website that “doesn’t work with your operating system” to work if they want to reach that sweet over-a-billion-user Android market. Win-win for pretty much everyone.

TOOL MENTIONED AAAAAAAAAAH 🔧⚒️⚙️ WTF ISN’T A METAPHORE FOR ANAL SEX

To each one according to their needs, from each one according to their capabilities.

People would still need to work, we are not abolishing the concept of work, what we want is a distribution of the value produced by the workers for the workers, so, for example, a disabled person wouldn’t have the same working hours of an able-bodied one, or a person that has to provide for a family of 4 wouldn’t earn the same as a person that lives by themselves.

A gun that is your girlfriend? Or a girlfriend that is your gun?

don’t you know? they’re brown, so it clearly doesn’t matter

Also really nice to see the ~10% performance improvement in some workflows in there

based lmao

Imagine being this passionate about being wrong.

And so will there be more people to look into and fix the vulnerabilities, specially if we can foster a bigger community of open source developers by being a healthier community overall.
