    Linux support is a magnitude harder than Windows/Mac. Even Linus himself complained about that multiple times. If the Linux crowd wants to become serious about the desktop, then everything should be standardized. Userland, boot, APIs, everything. It shouldn’t matter which distro the user is running, I should be able to compile once and run my app everywhere.




  • It is much better to search using ElasticSearch or Sphinx. Grep is super slow, non indexed and can’t do natural language full text searches. It’s pretty much useless for any real world text search you’d want from OCRed content. And all these better tools are free and open source, so really a no brainer.
