Like I said, the problem isn’t that they are against CoC. The problem is how they reacted to the post. Alone the last “Nice on” as an reaction to your typical idiotic “BuT WhAT If I WaNT tO Be A ToXIC CoMmUniTy” rebuttal, tells me enough about their mental maturity. So yes from that and the other responses, I call the dev an Idiot.

How so?

Simply by how they reacted to the CoC suggestion on the Github page.

Tech bros and absolutely zero social competence. Name one more iconic duo.

In one particular incident, the moderators of the Discord server engaged in a harassment campaign against a transgender user, including using their moderator privileges to edit the pronouns in their username from “they/she” to “who/cares”.

What a shithole and the lead dev seems to be a fucking idiot.

Distrobox. It’s a godsend if you use production software since for whatever reason, many companies often only support one package format + specific distro. I prefer Flatpaks and hope their store implementation will take off but Distrobox just works for now.

At least in Debian 12, KDEConnect was pre-installed with my Plasma Desktop.

No wonder since most topics on all are:

• Capitalism is bad
• Landlords are evil
• US Politics
• Linux

It’s a huge circlejerk here and there isn’t that much engagement in other smaller communities. And I highly doubt that it will change for the better since I already see that a lot of the remaining people love this little circlejerk and don’t even want more people that could diversify the content. More power to them, I have already given up on Lemmy as a Reddit replacement.

The main problem is the lack of professional software support (+ the clusterfuck of repositories and different packet formats) and that simply nobody of the big backers wants to push for the desktop market. Canoncial gave up on it when they killed their convergence idea and the others never tried in the first place.

At least the first problem could be solved by Flatpak and the Flathub store. It’s fucking annoying when the software has Linux support but Software A only others rpm packages while software B only has deb file for Ubuntu. At least I have now Distrobox for this shit, but I really hope Flatpak will solve this shit.
