Interesting read!

Thank you for putting in this amount of effort highlighting some shortcomings of the Fediverse

But Linux consists of more than 1 GUI?

No, sporadic bugfixes if the “maintainers” feel like it. It’s dead. See https://blog.documentfoundation.org/blog/2020/10/12/open-letter-to-apache-openoffice/

Stop recommending OnlyOffice.

Rather skill than distro

How is this relevant to Linux? FF release notes get posted here, as FF is the de facto standard browser on Linux distros. Vivaldi isn’t.

I do not want to judge on Vivaldi, I am merely questioning its relevancy to the community here.

But the same holds for regression, which you seem to favour. So why do you feel that regression is so much better than classification (which is, when combined with a confidence score, basically regression)?

I disagree. Classification in combintion wo ith a confidence score is a viable use case for AI.

Windows 7 -> Windows 10 -> Mint -> Kubuntu -> Arch -> Fedora -> Mint -> Fedora.

I noticed a few users starting to do this and it annoys me to no end. You don’t need to put a link in every comment

That’s fair. I feel like that would be a more valid criticism.

Not to mention anything posted on the internet is effectively public domain

Well, no.

No uBO? No Adblocker at all?

Indeed. Oftentimes they kinda resolve their cognitive dissonance by saying ‘Ah, you got a fiance, you have to say that wink’. As if there is no other logical explanation.

Cool idea! THis should be more broadly discussed. After some discussion here, where could we share it with the F-Droid community? Is there a forum or such?

My five cents: The problem I see is account stuff. You can use F-Droid without an account, and do not want to require an account for ratings. Yet, having no accounts, it is incredibly easy to manipulate votings.

I would probably prefer a “Git Issue”-like thread for every app, where you have to register. This allows for

• Deeper conversation, more insightful reviews, instead of “3 starts, UI ugly” (let’s face it, this is not the reason why we use F-Droid)
• Pointing out code lines in the source code. This could help with bug fixes, malicious stuff, etc.
• …

In how far? I think it is actually a valid criticism of a very strongly opinionated take.

What do you mean by that?

OnlyOffice vs LibreOffice?
