And they say Linux is "impossibly hard to dev to", because we have "unmanageable fragmentation, killing compatibility" and the occasional "how am I to build for so many targets?"

Flatpak and KDE apps don't follow the rules that I set for my GTK apps, even simple stuff like window controls on the left. If I install a KDE app it needs to drag in half of the available KDE libraries so I don't use them even if they're better. So my choice is use my preferred gnome and lose apps or use KDE which I don't like.

I don't see any problems with how Firefox implements AI yet, but the phrase ‘AI browser’ scares me

I am very disappointed with the focus on AI rather than significant improvements to the browser itself (I mean resource allocation)

blog.mozilla.org/en/mozilla/le…

Still, I don't see any problems with Mozilla's current(!!!) approach, and I'm also scared by emotional social media users
