  • Is the meme wrong?

    Yes, it is.

    basic functionality that should be in gnome in the first place

    Who gets to decide what’s “basic” functionality? Each desktop’s team has their vision for what they want to implement. Something that might be basic to one person might not be in someone else’s vision or…

    the devs don’t want to implement

    …is being worked on but needs design. GNOME is design-oriented. It doesn’t matter how much you scream that something needs implementing if no one designs how that implementation will work and why it should be implemented in the first place. It’s not about “not wanting”, it’s about making sure that when something is implemented, that it’ll work well both now and in the future.










  • As someone who’s an active user and contributor to Fedora: words cannot express enough how much I hate US laws.

    It’s the reason we can’t ship with H.264 hardware decoding out of the box, it’s the reason why we can’t provide access to our project and our community to sanctioned countries (Cuba being one that really hurts me, but mainly Iran right now, which makes me really sad because I’m having to answer people from Iran almost weekly asking on how they can be a part of the project with “unfortunately you can’t”).

    I dream of a day where Fedora’s trademark changed to the hands of a non-profit foundation outside of the US.
