This is also any and all Firefox support queries in a nutshell.

“OMG THIS BROWSER IS SO SHIT IT ALWAYS BREAKS OR GETS SLOW”… “No I have not changed anything in ˋabout:configˋ, and what I did is definitely not the source of the problem!”… “Yes with a reset config it works fine, I don’t know why, your browser is shit!”

And it’s always the same people who do “hardening” and “privacy enhancement”, having fuck all actual clue what they’re doing but thinking they’re oh so smart. 😑

Yes I know, a few months ago a post with the exact same title was shared […]

I think reposting after 7+ months is more than ok regardless :)

RobotToaster, in Statement regarding the ongoing SourceHut outage

Cogent are useless.

danielbln, in Platformer is leaving Substack for Ghost, an Open-Sourced publishing platform

Better host it yourself, because the managed version of Ghost has the lovely dark pattern that you cannot cancel your plan without them immediately deleting everything, no matter if your plan is still paid for for another few months or not. Really left a bad taste on my mouth.

Would it be OK if I will be that guy when ranting about NVIDIA Linux drives? Asking for a friend 😉

NotJustForMe, in Don't be that guy.

Hehe, sometimes I wish that I could be snarky like that. ;) Good for you.

I have been told by numerous people these days that there are no free things in life. I write and contribute to FOSS software, and had that exact discussion.

Apparently, I do it to feel good, and for the prestige, a reward in itself. Also, I probably want to make up for something.

“Doing something for free is no excuse to do it badly.”

Some others don’t even know what “free” means." And some don’t believe it at all, that someone is paying me. Probably thinking about influencers or something. Perhaps they saw an ad somewhere and believed I’d see any of that revenue. ;)

I just went with posting the wiki entry about FOSS, and my ko-fi page, and thanked them for their interest. The first two, because they genuinely didn’t know any better, and the third because, well, at least that one is clear. Every user is a tester. Testing is good.

Gooey0210, in [NEWS] Kakao is now going after everyone involved in Tachiyomi

He-he-he-he 1000027161

macattack, in Atuin is an open-source shell command history app for Linux with syncing, unlimited history, and with contextual search

Stumbled across some self-hosted hacks online but hopefully someone does a PR to add instructions to their GH wiki.

Or don’t be that “don’t use any of my GPLv3 packages in your projects, because i don’t want”

Or, that guy who is “My project is free and open source, please don’t use for piracy, i don’t support piracy”

But yeah, complaining sucks, especially from somebody who doesn’t have his hands dirty, to somebody who does

And for free projects, don’t pay- don’t expect anything And even when paying, don’t expect much Just make stuff yourself, only making everything yourself you can be sure it will be good

User: “I have to waste my whole life fixing this” Dev: “you are complaining that you have to spend a few minutes”

Savage.

JustinAngel, in Don't be that guy.

this sort of stuff is rampant. A few years old but it makes my blood boil every time I think about it.

Tool Creator should work on this, it ain’t making no sense that the default json file (Google) is not updated cause seeing that work on Google tells us that it definitely works on all sites

@drk1wi please resolve google.json file to stop this cookie disabled error

Seems minor but the tone of the demand is wildly entitled.

knusprig, in Looking for software for poster design

Scribus ❤️

CaptDust, in Don't be that guy.

You are wasting my time! I demand a refund, where is open source’s manager!?

inkscape should work, and its all vector graphics, so you can do things like clip images
