Sure, for new stuff, but do you just chuck all the old stuff in the bin and get new stuff, e-waste be darned?

Maybe someday Linux will be undeniable for such companies and reverse engineering will not be necessary anymore. Those days are far away though😮‍💨

So what? It’s Linux. More Linux users are good for the ecosystem. I’d rather have people’s feed flooded with zorin videos that a single windows or Mac video

Judging a video by its title.

Read the very first comment I made again. If your interpretation of my words is still the same, maybe you’ll have to work on your English comprehension.

Great argument there. Replace what I say with whatever you think it says and go on from there. Should I just do the same with yours and we’ll see what kind of nonsense comes out? I’m sure that would be in your interpretation of “good faith”.

But don’t worry, I don’t expect a coherent response. This was a just-in-case kind of thing 😉

A great goal, but given they haven’t gotten really close to doing so on desktop, my excitement is tempered.

“You don’t agree with me? Must be a Nazi” / “You don’t agree with me? Must be woke”

👍

I firmly believe there are ways of being a centrist without being a Nazi.

If your default is equating “centrist” to “nazi”, then I wonder what kind of experiences you had but it’s so far from mine that it’s pointless to continue this.

Yep, here we go. I’m a nazi now 🙄 This is exactly how you edge people out. You’re just the another flavor of “everything I don’t like is wOkE” but instead “everything I don’t like jNaZi!”.

Nobody’s in the middle. There’s no nuance. You’re either on my side or you’re an enemy. Life’s just that simple.

The entire ecosystem is full of purity tests. You don’t have a CoC? Must be a Nazi! Don’t use the right license? Probably a capitalist! You use systemd? Must be a Apple insider! You don’t use systemd? Fuck off you troglodyte. Oh my you said “no politics”? Definitely a lib! What’s that 🏳️‍🌈 flag? OMG what a woke commie.

Everyone draws the line somewhere else. Just because you draw it at DHH doesn’t mean you’re better.

The PR. It’s locked down so no comments. Actually well written!

Wait, they expect people to start installing Linux by creating a Google or Discord account? I have to read this article now, because the title and subtitle are hinting at this.

Ok damn, what a misleading name!

The Ubuntu ISO Tracker has long been used by the Ubuntu QA team and the community for tracking the Ubuntu Linux ISOs and their pass/fail results and other build/testing related information

It’s an ISO test result tracker.

This is the biggest issue with niche communities: purity tests. They can’t unite under one goal and have productive discussions. They are more focused on being correct (their interpretation of correct) and shutting out the incorrect than getting closer to a goal. Sometimes incorrect can be as little as choosing the wrong utility and other times it can be much bigger but they all spark the same amount of ire.

I don’t support the views of the endorsed projects, but surely a better reaction would be to suggest alternatives instead of just screaming for outright dismissal? I keep reading that “omarchy is just a bunch of scripts” and “hyperland is just one tiling window manager”. If that’s the case, there probably are better alternatives no? Or if it’s as easy as described why not fork it?

Complaining without an alternative or a solution is not productive, IMO

Or just stop being poor. Or win the lottery. Or marry rich. Or just be successful.

Clearly OP hasn’t worked hard enough.

I see. Yeah, then you’re mostly right 👍

Rght, they’d pick Mac.

If the package manager has a GUI, sure, maybe. But if you’re managing stuff with the command line, things do take a turn depending on distro.

Once radicle becomes viable and federated source forges are finally in vogue, github can suck it and these kinds of things will belong to the past.
