Earth is like a giant nut.

A lot of web software does this (Github and Gmail for example). I like it but always thought it could be abused.

Is this person suggesting that the landlord work enough to make up for the amount that it costs to house and provide for their tenants?

They phrased it in patronizing terms which is sure to get some upvotes or likes or whatever but when you think about it for more than a few seconds it doesn't make any sense.

Couldn't this always be done by the developer using their own CSS via GtkCssProvider?

This write-up feels a little too politically biased. But aside from that, it does seem like a disproportional use of funds for an organization that makes millions and whose primary goal is Linux. It would be nice to see a better breakdown of funding.

Fish is my favorite. I can barely do without it. Only downside is some bash commands don't work on it without modification.

But I'm also having a ton of fun right now with xonsh which lets you use python and bash together.

Czkawka is a rewrite/improved version of FSlint written in Rust. It finds duplicate, broken, and excess files. And it can compare images and videos to find similar media. It uses Gtk (and Glade).

Edit: Oh, and RedoxOS is an entire GUI OS written in rust.

Sorry, I don't personally have any experience programming Rust. But both of the projects I listed have pretty rapid development so I can't imagine it's insanely difficult. Then again maybe the devs are just coding geniuses. The guy that does Redox also works for System76 and a lot of their software is written in Rust.

Yep, it's on F-Droid! And Gitlab under GPL3.

I downvote myself (or at least un-upvote myself) sometimes for a few reasons.

One, if I've made a mistake or been persuaded by another's response.

Two, if I see another response that is better or more important than mine and I think theirs should be above mine (or mine below).

Stealth is another really nice Android client that is account-free for those who don't want an account or to login but still want to subscribe and save posts locally.

With his setup, I'm amazed that anything is working at all. It's impressive that it's working as well as it is.

And yeah, the false expectations part. It's a pitfall for most people. It would actually be really interesting to watch someone who only grew up using Linux try and switch to Windows. I wonder how much more or less confusing it would be to them. That would be a good way to compare what is a true problem and what is just expectations. Windows has tons of quirks and bad design that people have normalized and learned to live with and have become non issues.
