Demolishun34913168dRunning Ubuntu with Gnome at work (cause fuck using a good WM). Who was the asshole that thought it was a good idea to make scroll bars thin as a default?
-
feuerherz3637168d@Demolishun why not use touch pad to scroll, or mous wheel? just two fingers up and down on touch pad, and you will never touch a scroll bar again
-
CoreFusionX3422168dUbuntu. That's the issue. Enough said.
Elaborating. They had their moment to shine, as in, being the friendly Linux, by virtue of being debian unstable but having enough community to solve those.
Lately, they have been ran over by many other distros also Debian based, because of their retarded corporate push.
Yes, snap, looking at you. Who, in Linux, would accept a package manager that does shit on its own, without your consent?
That's fucking stupid for anyone who has used Linux, like, ever. -
Demolishun34913168d@joewilliams007 touchpad?! Get off my lawn! I really do hate touchpads though. I do use scroll on mouse. However, sometimes I need a bar and they try to make it 1mm wide.

feuerherz3637167d@cafecortado then hopefully the programm allows you to skip tocend via keyboard or to a specific line

thebiochemic3019165d@CoreFusionX id say snap (and by extension flatpak) are just solutions to a problem that exists in the realm of linux distros. I don't see how this is a problem.

It is a problem from the moment it does shit on your computer without your explicit informed consent.
Some boxes can't afford to have a random update from snap breaking things. -
hjk1015731137dDon't care about the debate but I'm forced to use Ubuntu with all the outdated shit and snaps. Snaps are more recent but almost always fuck something up like not being able to share Wayland screens or wrong windows version if wine is required. Can't get gcloud plugins so good luck connecting to GKE.
Don't have those issues on Arch or Nix. Just gets shit done.
Basically
