S0 Standby and its consequences have been a disaster for the computing race

Did you even read my comment? This has nothing to do with personal preference. It’s a matter of defending a shared commons from a hostile force. Sure, an individual gnome user can coexist with an individual kde user, like seriously who cares its just a DE. But as a community, users of other DEs, WMs and compositors can only “coexist” with the gnome project in the same way that humans can “coexist” with COVID-19

It’s never about the DE’s themselves, it’s about the devs.

KDE’s devs are just focused on making a cool desktop environment with many features. It’s a little buggy and has some weird design decisions, but whatever, no biggie.

GNOME devs deliberately sabbotage existing linux standards in attemps to take control over desktop linux. Examples: client-side decorations, client-side shadows, systray fiasco.

This is not a question of personal preference. It’s a question of keeping desktop linux free, fair, and accessible for everyone.

When people say that they are “anti-DEI” in the US, they mean that they want a society where the only people with power are white, protestant men.

Is it really that implausible that some people really do just want to have diversity, inclusion, and equity the “old way” by simply giving everyone an equal opportunity to participate instead of embracing DEI ideology? It’s a huge leap in logic to just assume that anyone who doesn’t subscribe to some specific ideology that claims to be tolerant must secretly be opposed to tolerance itself. I think all of those people yelling “nazi” at anyone remotely critical of DEI are just projecting.

I mean yeah like you can be a pedant about it but all in all its a statement that makes sense. Apps on both android and ios are very sandboxed, even if you go out of your way to install malware there’s very limited damage it can do, barring zerodays in the sandboxing itself.
