This is exactly the reason why my preferred method of music consumption is piracy + Bandcamp. Every Bandcamp Friday (when Bandcamp doesn't take a cut) I buy about 2 to 6 albums I've listened to in the past month or a few. If an ar

Nim as a language is a good place to go. The ecosystem is another story entirely. I suggest you search for the kinds of libraries you'd need and check their maintenance status, maybe do some example project to get a feel for the compil

This is really cool! I love the JSX-like approach to UI and it's a shame it's not so common on desktop. https://github.com/can-lehmann/owlkettle is the only thing I find comparable.

Imo libadwaita apps are the best, but I haven't found a perfect solution for writing them.

Penpot is great! It works really well, and the UX design is solid. Except for the few times I tried it, it ground to a halt after a couple hours and ten frames, crashing the tab when trying to do common things like add a text object (which

Substack has problems too. For hosted foss services, write.as ( https://write.as/ ) and bearblog ( https://bearblog.dev/ ) are good. If self-hosting, the choices are infinite.

On that metric, everything is just like MkDocs. In my opinion, though, crucially, is that almost anything is better than MkDocs. A couple of the problems with MkDocs: - Themes available don't look really good, more thrown together than

Unfortunately Flutter (which seems to be the backend for Flet), is IIRC rendered in a HTML5 canvas, which yields bad accessibility and is overall a pretty bad way to build web apps. It's kind of unbalanced, as web tech, on the other ha

I don't believe corporations implementing liberal politics to prevent backlash and it being legislated onto them qualifies as them being on the "left political spectrum".

I found DecapCMS setup quite easy the last time I did it. What roadblocks did you hit?

This a good place to plug my favorite launcher? Search-based launchers in general are something I just cannot live without nowadays, there's way less friction there with openint apps and such. Kvæsitso is the one I use currently: http

Bluefin is actually older, it's the base that kickstarted the whole development of Universal Blue. They are pretty much as mature, too. Bazzite is more gaming oriented, Bluefin more general purpose. Bazzite is way more popular since ga

Semantic HTML exists and is usable, most developers just want to make their site look like they want (nothing wrong with that). Problems arise when sites don't use semantic elements, style with bespoke class systems. And functionalit

I just searched for non-english slang on UD and found two definitions instantly. I think it's safe to say that the internationalism is at least not prohibited.

When browsing my native language, I found that many of the words were in fact not untranslatable or urban in any way, but rather common words like "computer" that have been formed from roots different than english.

I know of at least one unaffiliated urban dictionary site using the term, but it's translated so maybe it doesn't count.

Switched to this when Simple File Manager went bust. It's wayy better, in terms of design, features, and user experience. I love the file move flow being presented as cut&paste, and other unique tidbits.

And following the design guidelines! Ahh, it makes the user experience SO much better.

I don't get why people in this thread are conflating Flatpak with different ways to do desktop UI. Even if your app is a single self-contained binary, it can benefit from Flatpak. Sandboxing, permissions management, separation from sys
