just because Wine project doesn’t want to deal with bugs potentially introduced by the Bottles dev.

If you have issue with Bottles, you don’t immediately go to the Wine bug tracker. If you have issue with packaged Bottles, you immediately go to the Bottles bug tracker. There is clearly a big difference.

How about that the CEO has shitty views and got ousted for it from Moz?

Alright, do we boycott javascript or is that too much effort?

There is an entire post from the devs on why Bottles is packaged the way it is. [https://usebottles.com/posts/2022-06-07-an-open-letter/]. If you put yourself in the developers’ position, it’s actually understandable. Distributions ship Bottles package filled with issues or straight up borked, users turn their frustrations to the Bottles developers instead of package maintainers, devs get frustrated and bombarded with issues that they can’t fixed. A ton of time, effort and mental health is wasted. I think the wishes of devs should be respected, even though the software is open source and you CAN package it however you’d like.

The creator and maintainer of openSUSE Aeon leans towards support of the decision, as he says “package maintaners can do whatever they want”.

I wish I could do that, but sadly the Linux community is barely alive on any instance other than .ml.

It’s quite ironic that for a lot of people “destroying twitter” means spending half a day there, finding rage-inducing tweets and sharing them on other social media sites just so they can enjoy the free traffic and engagement. It would be nice if we could, you know, ignore it and let it die.

Of course, I was comparing it to other “standalone” window managers, not the ones used by GNOME/KDE, since the userbase will be obviously much higher for the desktop environments.

I’m amazed by the amount of work being done by Hyprland devs. I remember how they were just starting not that long ago, and now it’s (probably) the most popular Wayland window manager.

Yeah. As much as I love GrapheneOS and all the security work, sometimes I feel like their “ideal” setup is to just install GrapheneOS on the latest Pixel phone and use only the 5 or so built in apps, as everything else is insecure, brings additional code baggage and can introduce flaws. I don’t think anyone can live like that.

It’s actually a lot faster now with dnf5 in Fedora 41.

You don’t need to type apt-get, you can just do apt upgrade.

KeepassXC + KeepassDX. Have been using them for years without ever thinking of alternatives.

Yeah, I hate how they brigade discussions and spam bear stickers.

Of course you can, unless you’re on a certain lemmy instance.

It’s not ready for everyday users when you disable basic multimedia codecs. I know it’s a US patent issue but still, you can’t expect newcomers and everyday users to just “install a browser via flatpak instead” or “just get your mesa and ffmpeg from this third party repo”
