  I totally get why this is being put forth. Watch Brodie’s videos on the Wayland portals (after binging on LUS, of course ;-) ), and notice which DE is more actively helpful in making the portals better…I guarantee you it doesn’t start with a “G.” They actually mention this in the change proposal, and I doubt that Red Hat is blind to this difference.

  It’ll be interesting to see how this plays-out.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨What's your favorite note-taking application?⁩ ⁨⁨10⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  I used to use Joplin, I liked that it integrated with my Nextcloud, and the markdown format. However, the way that it handles the markdown files was too black-boxey to me, with the way it split them up in a weird scheme.

  Now I use Ghostwriter with straight markdown files inside my Nextcloud folder. So I still get the syncing functionality, but a more flexible setup that doesn’t require a specific app to access all of my notes.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨I'm creating a curated search engine for web developers. Asking for a feedback⁩ ⁨⁨10⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  I really like the simple design that separates the results into docs/blogs/magazines. Obviously, the results reflect the current state, but I appreciate your approach in both the design & sourcing the search results. I think there’s a lot of potential for this to be a regular part of my toolbox, hopefully this takes off!

  Yeah, I totally get that, I have really bad memories myself.

  If it’s an ncurses/similar interface that enables keyboard navigation through dmesg/journalctl, and provides info that allows us to properly diagnose it, I can see this being useful.

  But yeah, I’ll admit that simply saying “BSOD’s are coming to Linux” without additional info about the implementation does bring feelings of dread in me.

  …and of course, this news is getting mixed reactions from the Linux nerds…

  Back when I used Windows, I remember the BSOD’s being about as useful to me as someone pointing in opposite directions saying “he/she/they went that way.” So long as the new Linux blue screens provide info that’s actually useful in diagnosing the problem(s), I see no issues with this. [shrugs]
