You aren’t supposed to do serious work over these things. They should be a last resort imo.

Feminism is good, but radical anything is bad. Thats like saying its misandry to speak out against the manosphere.

This doesn’t feel like something that should happen. Like at all. I don’t want experience repairing stuff. I want stuff not breaking. I know mos tpeople here treat a OS like a hobby, but for most people its a tool.

I see the appeal for the package manager for a lot of things, but space got so incredibly cheap and fast that duplication is way less of a deal than the effort to make stuff work the traditional way. But im not a real linux user. I don’t like tinkering, I want to download something and it works. And the amazing thing is we can have both. If people like spending time to package something be my guest.

The funniest interaction I had recently. I downloaded a program that isn’t in my package manager or had any sort of flatpack/appimage so I downloaded it as a deb and it didn’t run because of some dependency. So I could clone the git and build it from source which might have worked, but I was too lazy to. So I just downloaded the windows exe and ran it through wine, which worked flawlessly.

But I like my applications years out of date and I think its good that every distro has to spend manhours on packaging it individually.

I had a problem with a Intel HD4000 on arch.

Because it’s a benchmark that tests how good your device is at Ai.

This is probably common. The people that work on UI often aren’t the people who do pull requests. But I think if you want to contribute it would be best to get in touch with a maintainer on the chat of the project. Projects often have a matrix/irc/discord on the git page.

In FOSS most people can program, but only a hand full of people can design a decent UI.
