What would be nice is an aggregator site one could submit to and everyone just host it on their own internet connection, and nobody be dependent on a source for hosting their projects. Maybe something like bluesky with the AT protocol but with git repositories.

Have a look to [Fossil](https://fossil-scm.org/) which is very easy to host and offer code repository, bug tracker, wiki, forum, etc. It is not Git however, but there is bridges and one can even mirror a Fossil repo to Github.

> I agree with your assessment of KDE lacking "taste". Imo, it looks like a system designed by engineers, not designers.

TBF, I was linked their more up to date screenshots in a sibling thread and it does look more consistent but it still seems off.

> I currently use KDE, but am not happy with it for the reasons you described. I used to use GNOME, but wasn't happy with it for the reasons above.

I don't like any of the Linux DEs tbh. They all have issues.

I might give KDE a go. But I think Debian does a poor job at packaging it and I don't really want to change distros.

> I have high hopes for Cosmic [0]. It seems like that one might get the balance right.

I tried compiling Cosmic on source on Debian 12. I ran out of memory on the VM I was doing it on. I also found out that on Debian 12 their rustc was broken!

I use KDE on Debian and found it is well packaged

I can easily see a new generation of Silicon Graphics machines powered by something like a MI300R (R because the amd64 cores would be replaced by RISC-V ones, which are the natural heirs to MIPS).

Or we could repurpose the SGI acronym to be Silicon Graphics and Intelligence to catch the AI wave.

And, of course, publish OpenIRIX under GPLv3. Including the screensavers.

He is primarily remembered for his music. Most people know some of his compositions but don't even know who wrote it. Gymnopédie is still used all over the place today in ads, remixes, and everywhere else - but few know who composed it, and even fewer know about his eccentric personality.

But apparently hackernews loves to point out how "weird" he was.

Various musicien like to play his music. Here's Gnossienne N°1 in a Gipsy Jazz style, by the Beltuner group in 2005 https://beltuner.bandcamp.com/track/gnossienne-n-1

Got it. The practical benefit is that you have a library that you want to use, now? Good for you, sir. But seriously, why have another native c++ gui library?

Because his son started studying programming, so he resurrected this 20 years old project. Did you read the History page on Cosmoe website ? You should (https://cosmoe.org/history.html)

Ton of projects exists, ton of cars, ton of bicycles, ton of shoes, ton of pens, ton of keyboards, mices and screens... each of them are just another one and there is no real benefit to chose one rather than another (price excepted). They exist, because someone wanted to try someting or do something. Humans do things that way.

Did you think to market it to small bricks and mortar shops ? You know, these little companies where customers ask for advises. I work with some of them. They often use one phone only for personal and professional calls. Further, they don't have strict separation between work and family things. If you could add some automation like detecting when the phone is quickly moving (you are in a car, a train, a bike…), or when the phone is not at the workplace it could help them a lot.

After a long break in releases of 3.8 beta test candidates, development is resuming, though not at the pace of past releases. That said, the team hope to have a 3.8 release ready before the end of the year.
