maybe because a huge fraction of users wouldn’t understand more advanced tutorials, or it’d be just too much effort

jokes on you one of my not so much into linux friends had it and his setup kept breaking, now he’s about to install fedora
Windows is king at being inconsistent 🔥
If only they had trained advanced users to use the CLI that would never change unlike the GUI
I bet they at most remove control.exe or make it open the Settings app, but still allow launching old vendor .cpl items just like they already can be opened in Control Panel.
sometime ago I had my home directory managed by systemd-homed
on Fedora (before 38 even afaik). the SELinux policy wasn’t configured properly for it though, so I had to keep setting it to permissive mode. for some stupid reason I remember running the command to do that on every. single. boot. lol
yet another reason to use sd-boot?
Holy hell, does every Windows 11 device require touch-based input soon or what?
Why not fork the latest CE?
there’s AVIF and AV1 extensions by Microsoft itself on their store afaik…
Google forcing Firefox to do such a move sounds very anti-competitive. I don’t know if that would ever happen.
Even Intel lmao
wow I kept opening man:somethingwithoutsectionunfortunately
in firefox instead of doing that lol
So is it pretty much an unofficial Spin then?
maybe it’s a good thing these blind haters of anime stuff aren’t nearby
To 1.: dri
instead of all
would handle hardware-accelerated rendering. Then some webcams or controllers won’t be accessible though. This one’s a bit complicated, since the necessary portals for e.g. generic USB device access aren’t yet there.
To 2.: portals should be used instead of that. Using them doesn’t require these permissions.
To 3.: click on details and see. This is Flathub making it easy to understand for users.
Permissions should make clear whatever dangerous things an app can do. If not, why do all this effort of isolation? Firefox could delete everything in downloads, either by accident on Mozilla’s side, or a privilege escalation. If the app used portals instead, it couldn’t, at least without user interaction. Or a browser security vulnerability could open up any USB devices to webpages. It’s all about what could happen with granted permissions. And these can 100 % be fixed in at least some way.
Apps could start improving to remove the warnings…
Well you do you. I don’t see the point in hating open source software made by them, you’re not paying them unlike with regular products and boycotting them.
You’re complaining about corporate fundings. Without them, a lot of open source tech would definitely not be as advanced as it is today. Since everything’s open source, anyone can just fork a project when some “malicious megacorp” “hijacks” the project. Funny how a similar case happened “the good way” recently with Redis/Valkey, but the other way around.
There’s always some doomers only seeing potential bad futures in awesome stuff, huh?
