Sometimes an open source project is too niche for anyone to take notice. I myself am developing a networking reliability layer ported from C to modern C++ and I've yet to see a person use it except yours truly. Sad truth.

This. Open source apps are generally awful at presenting themselves to a broader audience.

Even for me, who's technical enough, an app being FOSS is not enough to even bother checking out. Yes, I've said it. Sorry, tinfoils, but I do put features above else. And, want it or not, general public does the same: if the featureset is not clear enough at first glance, and an app doesn't explicitly provide clarity on what it does and how it is better than competition, most people aren't even checking it out.

So, is politics in the Linux category or memes category?

Generally because Sync for Reddit died (api bs and shit) and Sync for Lemmy was one of the first results that caught my eye looking for a working client. Haven't looked back since.

Widespreadness of local provider networks even if you have not paid for the internet access. You could literally download and watch movies, play games and etc by just using DC++ for local provider network file sharing, servers of which they freaking hosted by themselves.

Good reminder. Subbed to patreon

I started playing Immortals Of Aveum before watching any final review of the game. Finished it and then watched the reviews.

Honestly, loved the game, and the reviews seemed to be negative from the get-go with the main point of having "nothing particularly new". Yeah probably but that doesn't make the game bad lol. It was actually fun and engaging, at least to me.

I stopped trusting reviewers long time ago and just watching em for kicks and giggles. Everyone has a different taste and that's okay.

I would sincerely advocate for year.month or year.release model so that typical users can figure out how outdated their software is. An average person is usually terrible at keeping software up to date.

Dunno I just googled the image lol

Let's just be clear that Windows is a king of newer hardware and Linux is a king of older one, if we strictly take a driver-bullshit-o-meter.

I'll be honest with ya, no fucking clue which of them is smaller or not.

Isn't there a browser extension to prevent exactly that? Like, "Allow right click"?

I compare it to qip or similar with voice calling support about 10 years ago. But still, Slack loses to pretty much anything on the market regarding performance, be that Element, Telegram, Skype or even Discord. It literally battles with biggest IDEs lol

Slack is one of those apps which lags in a week on any hardware, it might be better than web version but it still sucks ass compared to fucking ICQ clients. Source: using it in the company I work for, for about 7 years already.

This usually happens when preview builds have been tested and they are just promoted to a stable release, and newer builds aren't just there yet. This is neither an "obvious indication" of pushing immediately to prod, nor this is an "abandoned software" by any means. Could be, but matching dev-prod versions don't necessarily mean that.

Samsung has also had it for quite a long time. Pretty much lots of recent mainline android additions seem to be a port of Samsung software. Repair mode, quick share, now offline find my device. They do seem to benefit from each other though, and that's a good thing.

GPU-fucking-accelerated terminal emulator. Damn, what an age to live in.
