If anyone is stupid enough to vote libs (or even worse, clive), honestly, it's an indication we need to spend more on education.
Even the crappiest Independents are more likely to be better.
Also, make sure you show up to vote with a list of who you want to vote for. There are a lot of shit parties out there with misleading names
Thats definitely fair.. To be honest, I keep deleting my account on reddit / Lemmy to keep out of the debates.
Except doesn't this replace their old tool? So, its not really fragmenting anything if its replacing an existing project.
Fragmentation isn't great, but it can be beneficial in some cases too. I've contributed to a number of projects.
Over the last 20-30 years, I've seen plenty of projects fail, and new ones take over.
If you take a look at arts/eaudio and the other sound servers of 20 years ago. All failed, because Pulseaudio consolidated and killed them eventually. Now, Pulseaudio is on its way to getting killed by Pipewire. And one could argue its a waste of resources.. but, the changeover is actually super awesome (for JACK)
One other good example of the fragmentation argument was Xfree86. Lots of people argued against Xorg at the time, and ultimately, Xfree86 died ages ago. If you asked me 20 years ago, I would have said KDE was dead, but now Gnome and KDE and carved out VERY different products, that suit very different people. Both are awesome in their own way
Everyone was freaking out when devFS got deprecated. But, udev was an amazing replacement
Linux is evolving FAR quicker than Windows or MAC (mac OS has barely changed in a decade). And, many ideas introduced in linux are stolen by Windows and Apple.
At the end of the day though, sometimes a rewrite is needed of things. What really matters is that it doesn't fragment the desktop experience (and, it won't in this case)
No problem bud. Have a good weekend
Rather than downvoting. This is a good teachable moment
I used to think this way, that it was about efficiency exclusively
But the reality is, any contribution is better than none, and a lot of these things implemented you don't really understand how important they are until a while later often
One consideration also is that Germany is apparently considering to continue their Linux migration, so things like this may also be based on feedback from admins
Suse has definitely carved their own niche as a Linux distro and it's actually sad they're not more successful because a lot of their tools are pretty cool
Winding back tariffs changes nothing. Even here in Australia
And it seems there are still people defending the rapist in US, and hopefully less money might help them understand..
Literally had an argument with someone on lemmy.ml who still is doing the"they're all the same" thing (found out he is reporting all of my responses after pointing out that Trump keeps doing things that mirror Hitler in his early days).
Apparently the Nazis can't accept they're Nazis 😂
Yep. I'm sure people will be jumping at the opportunity to give you cheap rent with no profit to them, absorb all of the property ownership risks and all the stress.
Unless the rental property is owned by the government, fuck all chance mate 😂
Everyone wants freedom to move around including me. But, this is the real world...
At least Trump was elected a few months before our election, so people can see what a piss-poor job he's doing, and what a load of bollucks his promises were.
It looks like at least news.com.au in Australia has turned on him a bit (Sky news though is still out there brainwashing people 150% though to make up for it)
