what you mean?

the new paper app is faster and that is from someone who usually hates gnome apps because of lack of setting option. (even this app has that issue with gnome-brain UI that put the night mode on the left side sidebar option removed from all other options that are on the right side)

I understand the motivation behind people that think rust is a good language to write software in as it has better memory safety but I don't think everythink needs to get rusted.

but I understand even less the people that make fun of passionate people that like rust and like safer software.

at first the meme was rust is a cult. now the meme is those who made fun of them are a meme.

example: https://techrights.org/n/2025/03/19/Sami_Tikkanen_Explains_on_Rust_Language_and_Its_Goals.shtml

I read this article with the expectation that it was a fair pro-con examination. and it had some bit that was very good point (like the discord part) but the theme of the article was just rust is bad because I say rust people are pod people.

this is not a good technical discussion.

and I ,as a non-programmer that have used linux for that last 20 years and like to follow software trends, like that rust is making a large part of security problems of apps be less severe.

I don't that make me a cult member.

Look, I put that out there to see what would happen. Don't write a dissertation to defend yourself; just tell me to fuck off.

but that would be rude. I just wanted to promote an app that I quite like (it is faster than the kde app I used)

You're clearly using AI in your posts (no hate). Or your brain might be wired like mine. I knew you'd leverage that to give me a nice rundown of the situation. I do plan to install both gnome paper and ocular from this thread. And the kde app because others suggest I at least try it. And now I'm inexplicably feeling the desire to learn rust...

sure. I am AI itself.

btw okular has way more options that I like. like color palettes. but paper is way faster for browsing.

Sounds like there are valid use cases for each. Thank you, AGI ๐Ÿ’–

No such thing. Ask away!

!nostupidquestions is a community dedicated to being helpful and answering each others' questions on various topics.

The rules for posting and commenting, besides the rules defined here for lemmy.world, are as follows:

Rules (interactive)


Rule 1- All posts must be legitimate questions. All post titles must include a question.

All posts must be legitimate questions, and all post titles must include a question. Questions that are joke or trolling questions, memes, song lyrics as title, etc. are not allowed here. See Rule 6 for all exceptions.



Rule 2- Your question subject cannot be illegal or NSFW material.

Your question subject cannot be illegal or NSFW material. You will be warned first, banned second.



Rule 3- Do not seek mental, medical and professional help here.

Do not seek mental, medical and professional help here. Breaking this rule will not get you or your post removed, but it will put you at risk, and possibly in danger.



Rule 4- No self promotion or upvote-farming of any kind.

That's it.



Rule 5- No baiting or sealioning or promoting an agenda.

Questions which, instead of being of an innocuous nature, are specifically intended (based on reports and in the opinion of our crack moderation team) to bait users into ideological wars on charged political topics will be removed and the authors warned - or banned - depending on severity.



Rule 6- Regarding META posts and joke questions.

Provided it is about the community itself, you may post non-question posts using the [META] tag on your post title.

On fridays, you are allowed to post meme and troll questions, on the condition that it's in text format only, and conforms with our other rules. These posts MUST include the [NSQ Friday] tag in their title.

If you post a serious question on friday and are looking only for legitimate answers, then please include the [Serious] tag on your post. Irrelevant replies will then be removed by moderators.



Rule 7- You can't intentionally annoy, mock, or harass other members.

If you intentionally annoy, mock, harass, or discriminate against any individual member, you will be removed.

Likewise, if you are a member, sympathiser or a resemblant of a movement that is known to largely hate, mock, discriminate against, and/or want to take lives of a group of people, and you were provably vocal about your hate, then you will be banned on sight.



Rule 8- All comments should try to stay relevant to their parent content.



Rule 9- Reposts from other platforms are not allowed.

Let everyone have their own content.



Rule 10- Majority of bots aren't allowed to participate here. This includes using AI responses and summaries.
