안녕하세요!
it’s just that software isn’t there yet.
I put about 2000 hours of work into $open_source_project. After a huge release 10xing the quality, we had about 1000x as many users.
The existing user base was ecstatic- for many of them, it was all they ever wanted and more. But we had 1000x new people saying “it just isn’t there yet”
Or like, they want a built-in ad blocker and Tor support in a privacy respecting browser, as explained in the article
Ok but like, that makes a terrible default for Zorin OS users. They’re gonna be confused and think it’s some hot garbage
Not sure why they don’t just ship Firefox with extensions like uBlock pre-installed
Edit: it looks like they’re heavily tweaking Brave regardless. I doubt this move was for technical reasons
Chromium is more secure, so if you add privacy tweaks, it is arguably better: https://madaidans-insecurities.github.io/firefox-chromium.html#jit-hardening
(Btw I use Firefox)
Doesn’t Librewolf log you out of every site when you close it, by default? I don’t think that’s a good default
I would watch a YouTube series doing this
At my company we allocate 20% of our time on “Better engineering”, and it counts as impact when you’re up for bonuses/raises so people actually have a reason to push to do it
Based on his other comments, he’s hoping to use Wine to cheat
Probably the DE, for me Bluetooth has “just worked” under KDE
Unrelated :P
Come work at Meta, we have Fedora Linux laptops :)
Edit: Maybe we should crowd source a list of companies that let you use Linux. I’ve worked at startups and straight up told the CEO “I’m installing Linux” and that has worked, but corporate companies you can’t get away with that
People have commented on the stability side, but there’s also the new implementation side. Seasoned developers have hailed Rust as being better for development - look no further than the GPU drivers for an example
You mean the operating system with a cuckold license? Nothx
As an ex-Andrpid dev, all this optimization is what killed the creativity. Every feature you currently have is hyperoptimized (even with dedicated battery optimizations turned off for the most popular apps), and as a result nothing you can’t easily change is changeable anymore.
Want a widget that self updates every couple minutes by connecting to the internet? Can’t have that, even if the user explicitly accepts it. Want to customize behavior of things in the settings? Nope. Want to hook into the phone memory and do crazy hacks? Not even with root. Want to keep running some checks to determine when to send a notification? Can’t do that either, non-push notifications are all scheduled in advance.
Lmaoo the webpage has a prompt injection
As others said, you probably want to mine something like Monero instead of Bitcoin, since you literally won’t even make a penny (even if you had free electricity) mining BTC.
Gupax (https://gupax.io/) is quite good for this, it makes it as simple as one-click run
You know Wayland will be ready when these threads don’t get 100 comments
