Programmer Humor@programming.dev•99% of Windows usability issues would be fixed if Windows had the guts to add this button
6·2 months agoyeah a fresh windows 11 install has like 20 different control panels, all built at different times by different teams using different UI toolkits.

2·2 months agoyeah many linux systems will run fsck on mount as well if that same thing is detected, it’s not a windows specific thing
Well yeah, it’s built to run proton which is wine to emulate windows games. I’m talking about using it as a Linux machine outside of purely steam / windows games. Try to install megasync, for example
no, then he would have said snapcraft
Yeah SteamOS is celebrated for its contributions to gaming, but good luck running something that’s not in flathub

Sure, though having gone through an entire monorepo refactoring of like half a million lines to basically destroy the codebase and switch from vue 2 to vue 3 among other things, it’s also possible to build the new, better designed wall right behind the old one, test like hell against that wall, and then shift that wall in when it’s ready in a planned release, ready for the issues that come because that wall isn’t quite like the old wall

I think spotify / discord / vscode (and derivatives) / slack are probably the most installed electron apps.

A lot of pretty popular packages in those lists are electron apps, unfortunately
