While input and feedback is good, there are ways of delivering it without making it demoralising.

It's early days and WiP. Give them a chance.

Here's the thing: firstly, There are people who don't know things you do. if you already knew about this, this post is not for you. It's for the people who were not aware of the dangers of using Microsoft's alternative.

Secondly: KDE is not a news agency. Their main mission is to inform, sometimes of stuff that is old, but persevering in time, and often their posts will not cover the headlines of the day. But that doesn't matter, because they are not a news agency.

You don't even need to connect computer anywhere. You can connect, say, your iPad with your Android phone and share stuff from one to another.

1. I am reading "I think Adobe products are better because I know how to use them."

2. There is no such thing as an "intuitive ui", just one you have become used to. See 1.

3. Can you back this up with some stats?

And that would be three things, hardly 300% more things.

@greenman @[email protected] @[email protected]

But as far as I know you can.

* Bitmap design ✔️
* Vector design ✔️
* Layout ✔️
* Video editing ✔️
* Photo retouching ✔️
* Animation ✔️
* ...

Maybe you have info I am lacking. What 300% more tasks can you not do with FLOSS tools that you can with Adobe products?

Also, could you define "better"? In what way are they "better"? Because it is not in all ways, is it? The way they treat users is atrocious, so in that sense they are not "better", right?

That's a nice round number. How did you get to it?

Trying it out today, I had a flashback that reminded why I loved this player so much: when I pressed the "pause" button, instead of immediately cutting off, the track gradually faded into silence.

It was not the smorgasbord of features, but the small things like this that set Amarok head and shoulders above all other players. Can't wait to see it brought up to speed again.

Here, you dropped this...

Because, guess what? Plasma does not force you to use Firefox either.

During the Clinton era Microsoft was a hair's breadth away from being broken apart for all its anti-competitive monopolistic shenanigans -- including the browser war thing that you mention.

But then Bush Junior got into power (I resist using the words "was elected") and he swept all that away.

They also copied the slogan for KDE Plasma 5 ("Simple by default, powerful when needed") and used a thinly veiled variation to promote Windows 11.

They were also notified and they again ignored the notification.
