Lollypop is actually a GTK3 app (it looks pretty dated on my mostly GKT4 GNOME setup) and it’s imo still the best GNOME music app. I’m honestly suprised they say Lollypop’s UX sucks but then praise RecordBox’s because I can’t stand RecordBox (why make me double click to play a song* and don’t get me started on the Artist+Album view). Also surprised Gapless didn’t get mentioned here, I think this is actually pretty decent though its queue system could use work.

*The dev says this choice is so you can select songs and instead you should use the little play button next on the right side of all playable entries.

Given Ubuntu is testing replacing the GNU coreuitils with uutils, we might have to start unironically calling it systemd/Linux.

Finally, a settlement to the CSD vs SSD debate we can all be unhappy with.

You’ll want to decide on a GUI framework to start as you’ll have to design quite a bit around it. Rnote is a good place to look, it uses GTK+libadwaita.

This could just be one sed command:

echo $line | sed -E 's/TH|[EL ]|DO//g'

A ‘mode’ in emacs is a set of bindings which associate specific keys with specific functions.

Not quite, a mode is basically a lisp function defined with a different macro that integrates it into the various systems (like showing up in the modeline when active). It can do basically anything, including setting keybinds.

‘modes’ can be stacked on top of each other, with higher modes being able to intercept key presses before they reach lower modes, and changes / manipulate lower modes (I think?)

No, a keybind can only run one function and what that function is is whatever last defined a binding for that key. Like, if one mode defines a key to be something and you activate another that also binds that key, the latter takes over.

Emacs does have something like you describe, where functions can be ‘advised’.

You can pry wget from my cold, dead hands.

Lossless encoding, by definition, won’t have any quality loss.

The posting of webps will continue until support improves.

This depends, if your image contains a lot of flat colours (like a screenshot of a website) then PNG can actually give you smaller file sizes than lossless webp. But for most images (especially ones with compression artefacts) lossless webp gives smaller sizes.

Vector layers allow you to create a shape and set its fill and stroke properties. You can then change the shape path, swap out different color settings, and transform the layer non-destructively, without losing any sharpness!

What is this, potential for a circle tool? In GNU IMP??? Someone tell the devil to turn the heating up, for hell must be freezing over.

Could you explain, I don’t know anything about Moist Critical. I’m just using the ‘Woo Yeah Baby! That’s What I’ve Been Waiting For’ meme.

TBF, Chrome doesn’t support it on Linux either.

Inaccurate, it should be return 1 and return 0 for the true 20 years at Blizzard quality.

They’ve apparently been involved in Fedora since at least 2007 and the list of packages they maintain includes QT, so sure this isn’t some rando. Still, I doubt the backing of a low level contributor to the project will mean this proposal goes anywhere, especially the idea of replacing X11 outright when downstream packages like KDE (ironic) have indicated they won’t support it.

Do note, literally anyone can submit a change proposal to Fedora. This shouldn’t affect your view of the project.
