I guess we should have added the word “notable”

I’m terribly sorry, you left the door wide open ;)

I’m curious, what makes AppImage a good choice for the lazy developer? Is it easier to create?

Neither of your statements are antithetical to mine.

The F stands for “free” as in “freedom”, not “free beer”.

Swipe it up rather than sideways

Never doing video calls, I suppose?

Not gonna lie, I never really asked myself if nano was still in active development or not. It has just always felt like it was “finished” in some way.

Ah, yeah fair enough.

Interesting, to me, the dual gradient looks like late 90s WordArt lol

I do see an image on Voyager iOS

I seem to remember hearing about Plasma having similar memory usage to XFCE. Don’t quote me on that lol

The guy is literally called Emmanuele Bassi. E. Bassi. Ebassi.

“Company time” doesn’t mean much to me, as a remote salaried worker with relatively flexible schedules. Not touching anything but work code from my company machine should be enough, as far as I could understand. Not a lawyer, though.

Bismuth (and Krohnkite before) never worked nearly as well for me, and AFAIK are both abandoned. The built in tiling is closer to FancyTiles/tiling zones, not auto-tiling like Pop Shell. Pop Shell also has been here for “years” by that metric lol

Fair enough. I know the FSF likes to make the distinction.

I’ll be that guy pointing out at semantics - “open-source”, in the widely used OSI definition of the term is actually equal to free (as in freedom). It’s why open-source advocates go so hard at saying “this is not open-source” when companies just dumps their source code somewhere and dubs themselves open-source for it.

GUIX is a GNU Project. You know, Stallman et. al, the guy behind the FSF, or well… the GPL itself (GNU General Public License). If it happens with GUIX, Stallman would be the biggest troll in existence, and we’d have much larger problems to discuss about open source as a whole.

It’s all computers. How “personal” it is just depends on what you do with it. I used what was technically a desktop PC as a home server for years. Without a monitor and kb/m plugged in, there’s not much personal computing going on with it. It’s mostly semantics, in the end it’s all computer systems lol

I’d agree if it wasn’t that in this specific case, I don’t think you really get heard by making such absolute statements and calling people that disagree with the point of view bots.

I’m always curious as to what these “don’t bother coming at me” comments are actually supposed to achieve. What is the point of making a public statement, and preemptively dismissing discussion as “bots” in one fell swoop? Is it just you venting out or something?

busybox based distros like Alpine, or maybe Android, are probably the closest thing to non GNU-based Linux. Although I have no idea if they really have zero GNU stuff or just coreutils specifically.
