And they’re cornering several markets, e.g. also the browser markets, which if we let them will make your adblocker no longer work either.

Don’t use Chrome or Chrome-based browsers people. (So basically, use Firefox.)

(Yes there are a couple of others too. Do what you want, I’m not your boss.)

Yeah I was just elaborating on your point.

Imagine if all the hours spent shitposting on Lemmy was spent on a single distribution.

The ways people enjoy spending their time are not interchangeable. Or in other words: https://fosstodon.org/@bragefuglseth/113183569977642462

I mean, the extension system means we could easily fix it

If that’s the case, then why not do it? Apparently the people who actually worked on X11 had a different idea, and so they decide not to do it themselves - but the code is right there for those who do think that that’s a good approach.

Likewise, there are plenty of definitions of “better” that make Wayland a lot better. It’s just that it’s a lot of work to make something better, especially for some interpretations of “better”.

The authentic French translation of forking.

Pullout game? I don’t pull out, I just rawdog that sex!

Wait.

18 years of it.

Taking a transatlantic flight and spending it all awake, looking at the flight map.

Yeah pretending you’re going to reach out to hug them does sometimes work. Gotta make sure I don’t actually touch them though.

This summary seemed pretty good though.

Doing the lord’s work, thank you.

That’s me, except the anxiety is about not wanting the cat to come to me. But somehow that kind of anxiety attracts them.

Theory: animals can sense your allergies.

Yeah, I realise a comment like this is mostly unhelpful (switching distros is a pain, of course - even just the hassle of moving over your data), but it does remind me how glad I am that I did it at some point. Painless upgrades are amazing.

(That said, it’s not entirely risk-free; although I never got an unworkable system, at some point upgrades were blocked until I did some manual work. Universal Blue had similar issues.)

Especially if it’s just another alpha release. They could have 20 more of those, for all I know.

Ah, gotcha.

Gnome itself is actually not bad. It has a full screen menu and arrangeable application icons and folders, but I cannot group them the way I want, let alone resize them.

I don’t think resizing is an option, but isn’t it possible to drag one app’s icon on top of another app’s icon to create a group?

Heh fair enough.

It’s not like the baby really cares. Moving colourful stuff that makes a sound, what more could you want?
