being new does not mean you do not have the right to develop the same way everybody else is. they did not start these issues, there were C people causing issues for no reason other than not liking rust that started it.

@EveryMuffinIsNowEncrypted@lemmy.blahaj.zone idk about GOG but in my experience any games through steam just work unless they have some shitty anticheat

@ryujin470@fedia.io

@shalafi@lemmy.world I was joking too

@ryujin470@fedia.io @BuboScandiacus@mander.xyz

cry about it?

yeah how dare they want to develop in the same way that everyone else does

no idea what you’re talking about

you get really high latency

@ryujin470@fedia.io here’s a brief list, in no particular order and based pretty much entirely on my own opinions and experience.

1. you have to learn a little bit about what happens behind the scenes sometimes. for example, if you don’t know what distro packages are or what flatpak is (or the reasons behind each of them, honestly) then installing apps kinda sucks at first.

2. you can end up installing a package thinking it is the official one, when in fact it is some variety of third-party. generally this doesn’t really hurt anything but it can (look up fedora flatpak).

3. sometimes cool features get stuck in limbo because none of the people who want them know how to code

4. sometimes cool features get stuck in limbo because of politics (in-project politics, not what you probably thought at first)

5. it can be hard to figure out if something is good or if the people reccomending it are just trying to help a new user find something easy and, since they don’t actually use it and haven’t for a while, don’t know that it kind of sucks now (I’m thinking of ubuntu here but it happens with a lot of stuff, distro or otherwise)

6. all the damn tribalism

7. drivers are hell on most distros

8. app availabilty on non-.deb systems

9. some apps refuse to look native (gtk apps on kde, qt apps on gnome, anything made by a mac user for some reason, every browser fighting tooth and nail to default to windows titlebar icons)

10. all the damn tribalism

the public housing part is like one bad decision from a workhouse, but otherwise yeah

they’re probably just mad that his Linux videos do a terrible job representing Linux.
