  • The KDE guys have been on fire for the past two years. Between their theming, color selection, and session handling they’ve come a long ways. They’ve also implemented some gnome-only features such as the overview, albeit in a very optional way. As opposed to eliminating a panel and forcing you to use the overview to see what applications or windows you have open, or available to launch, it’s just a window management tool instead of a UX paradigm.

    Their wayland session is stable and also deals with xwayland in a very different way. If you set a custom scaling factor, the QT apps and GTK apps are talked to in a way that makes the same scaling factor consistent across all your applications, even under a wayland session with xwayland. The Gnome devs hand-wring about how the world has to be perfect before implementing an idea, where the KDE devs try something and then iterate if it’s successful.




  • This right here. Apple did a very artful job of making everything available way back when on a unified storefront with “everything”. Netflix did much the same, and for a time it was “everything enough” until each studio decided it was a good idea to make their own storefront. The mistake is that they inadvertently rekindled piracy not so much because of the pricing, but due to the convenience factor. Now the piracy is most convenient because it has it all in one spot. People will pay for content, that’s not the issue. It’s the same old adage as going to the same grocery store that just has all the shit you need so you don’t have to drive all over town.

    What’s ironic is that there wasn’t crypto hate. Though for me that’s why Brave can go diaf, along with crypto. Crypto is dogshit puffed full of birdshit, and I can’t fucking stand pro-crypto anything. I actively work against crypto, and am quite pleased that I’m given multiple opportunities to undermine and fuck over the crypto communities. Also it will not stop, until crypto is dead, so you making it seem like a bad thing to be anti-crypto is falling on deaf ears for me.

    I’m for whatever is against crypto. The more damage I can personally do to the crypto scene, the better.
