    Sure, can they consider stopping wasting money / time actually develop useful stuff? For a DE that got €1M from the Sovereign Tech Fund they’re not showing results.

    Okay fine, desktop icons can be a design decision, however a “disable animations” toggle on the settings that doesn’t disable ALL animations… that’s just poorly made software, not something you may have an opinion on.

    Yes, systemd is a very good and very well written piece of software while GNOME is a pile questionable decisions that uses web tech to create themes and takes about half a second to load up any window. Also the same pile where you’ve to use 3 different network management UIs to get stuff done. And… where you can’t have desktop icons because they were too hard to get done properly OR where you can’t have a “disable animations” toggle on the settings to actually disable ALL animations instead of just some stuff while leaving others arounds.



  • The problem with compiled JS is that it doesn’t last long. Any piece of software written in the popular frameworks will probably not compile in 5 years because xyz dependency. There might be ways around it, but all annoying and not good. Some type of software really needs more assurances that “might compile in 5 years” because some people can’t afford to upgrade to the latest framework down the path due to size or simply lack of time.
