a custom distro

…or just a pre-exsting one. Heck, they should just make it a point to support open source development.

Plus the Android app on f-droid.

Who hurt you?

greybeards dunking on you because you’re not a “real” linuxer

Oh, right. I see.

androids can’t do base distro’s anymore?

I’ll be honest, I never tried. Seeing that there are projects working independently to bring Debian, Ubuntu, and Arch to Android, I’d guess no? Plus I know you can run any distro in an emulator within Android systems, but that feels more like a curiosity.

So, 15 years later we’re worse off than then? Argh.

Out of curiosity, was it “just” a plain Debian system, or did it support touch screen and phone service?

a lot of them have anime or furry stuff as their wallpaper or profile picture, but they use linux

What you’re experiencing is sonder.

This message doesn’t say anything about the validity of your license, though. Or am I missing something?

I’m not up to date on Windows versions, but saying Win 11 has reached end of service is… unexpected?

Have a downvote for the complete lack of context. What is this, why is it interesting to you?

All I see here is a lowest effort share of something that should probably just have been added to your personal reading list 🤷

I suspect that they have ulterior motives

Rather than guessing at the motives of others, let’s remember Hanlon’s razor.

Just any year, I’m not unreasonable 😂

I’m just really excited by this major version, and am impatient to get my hands on the final release…

Yeah, fingers crossed for an actual release before New Year, though.

Exactly.

I don’t have figures on how many people actually use GIMP, but I’m guessing a lot more than the number of people griping about its usability online.

So close…! 😂

Exciting! Hoping the RC process is short for this version 🤞🤞🤞

No, it’s only code and pixels 🙂

Yeah, that makes sense. Thanks!

Focus instead on enforcing standards’ compliance

For sure, but ¿por qué no los dos?

Completely agree with your other prioritisations.

It would make so much more sense to fund existing Linux development than making a new distro, tbh.

If the EU changed to Linux systems and donated the same amount back to open source development as they currently pay for Microsoft licenses, that would make a hell of a difference.

Exactly, for the pencil pushers it’s going to be a transition from one desktop and office suite to another. Hardly “learning Linux”.

I see more of a challenge on sys admins and department IT support who may have gotten comfy giving mostly Microsoft product support.
