if you’re not paying it doesn’t really matter. open source belongs to everyone; it’s a disservice to put it in the same bag as, say, a Microsoft or Apple OS.
plus how far removed is enough? are we going to scrutinize what programming languages were used and where they originated as well?
family content? maybe he’s concerned about the future of Aryan children
great, coz I was not fully sold on Linux until I saw a nazi switch to it.
that’s not a Venn diagram
I disagree. “It’s ugly” is valid criticism. It has the same value as “needs better/more appealing graphics”. You’re just annoyed it wasn’t sugar coded. In fact I’d argue the former is more valuable than the latter because it doesn’t beat around the bush and more importantly it points to a problem rather than the solution.
As a designer I find that most often customers don’t hit the mark by trying to design the thing themselves, telling me exactly what they want, essentially trying to do my job for me. Hearing the customer’s problems with it to figure out a solution on my own as a designer is better a vast majority of the time.
“I don’t like it” is bad. “I think it looks awful” is better. “I hate the colors” is best. I don’t really care about wording, I care about the information I get.

you don’t need an excuse to shit on anything.
what? … not liking an app is the most appropriate reason to shit on an app.
I mean Thunderbird on windows always looked like it could work on windows 95 so I’m not surprised
i think proton is getting shittified as well but you should make a post listing all these alternatives for different services, rather than peppering them in the comments.
internet explorer, yahoo mail, myspace, icq… things change. unfortunately it’s mostly due to a huge company having the resources to promote their product to convince people to migrate but still. people can leave old giants.
on Reddit I think it makes sense but on Lemmy it’s usually obnoxious in my experience, because it’s not so populated and busy, the default browsing experience already gives you posts from all over… so unless you strictly browse followed communities (which i don’t know if most people even do this) you end up seeing the same thing over and over.
i didn’t need this date; i already knew this because the number of people coming up to me on the street and telling me they use Linux btw unprompted has increased noticeably.
i can’t read anything that’s presented with that shitty cover image without a hint of irony
ikr, i can’t believe this administrative did something backwards this time.
