  • I guess it comes from a european perspective, describing everything else as "wild west" or "near/far east"

  • NixOS. I came a long way and it combines the best of modular, customizable and immutable.

  • Appreciation Post for KATE

    Jump

  • I also really like it, it is fast, OS native, has polkit integration for system files, LSP and linting works too, for example shellcheck for posix sh or bash scripts.

    Have not used some of the features yet

  • Rust Coreutils Continues Working Toward 100% GNU Compatibility, Proving Trolls Wrong

    Jump

  • No, but as they do great work it is a shame that they dont protect it and thereby reduce the protection of every distro shipping them

  • Rust Coreutils Continues Working Toward 100% GNU Compatibility, Proving Trolls Wrong

    Jump

  • Because we are users, contributors, packagers, distributors... and if the project is unsustainable and suddenly becomes proprietary that is bad.

    Or if the project is included in proprietary systems. Nobody will have the right to get source code then, or in case of GPLv3 even the right to install other software.

    Copyleft and GPLv3 grant users the rights to prevent e-waste or replace shitty proprietary software on useful hardware with better one.

    Copyleft licenses spread these rights, while permissive ones do nothing apart from handing out software for nothing in return.

    Jump

  • This. Licenses are so that trust is not needed and being a good FOSS citizen is expected. That means publishing your code if you fork, giving proper attibution and granting your users the same rights as the original project did.

    Something very normal.

    Jump

  • If they could just use a real licence and even more copyleft (at least something, like EUPL, MPL or GPLv2)

  • Can KDE Tile Windows Like PopOS?

    Jump

  • Well, PopOS is a distribution, based on Ubuntu, shipping a desktop. That desktop was formerly a customized GNOME, now they have their completely own desktop environment.

    The tiling might be similar between both but their GNOME extension is probably deprecated now.

    Cosmic has dynamic tiling, while KDE has many manual tiling features which may be less efficient but require nearly no setup.

  • Can KDE Tile Windows Like PopOS?

    Jump

  • This is not about GNOME...

  • Can KDE Tile Windows Like PopOS?

    Jump

  • Oversimplification. COSMIC lacks like 95% of what GNOME has that is important for regular users, like the vast extension ecosystem, GSConnect or remote RDP login as simple examples.
