Do Linux programmers have no idea what looks good? Because I met people in my life who are so good at programming and that other boring stuff but do not know what sells or looks good. You know what I mean? Look what you are wearing, do you really cannot afford something that suits you, you probably making 3 times what I do. Is similar thing happening with Linux GUI, can afford it but don't know that it would make your community 100x bigger? And yes I noticed it is getting better over past 10 years or so.

I mean i have no xperience and never even tried to make an os GUI concept, should I do it first and then do similar rant? using gimp or photoshop? I have both. Photoshop GUI looks better lol and I even downloaded GIMP 3.something RC…" }, { "type": "paragraph", "content": "P.S. do good looking linux themes exist and I just dont know it yet? If they do, why they are not default for distros, why you have to download “some code” after that. How do I know it is not malicious? Man, so much more to learn isn’t it? Is it that you linux users do not want big community and make linux look bad on purpose so there is no viruses and other shit that you can find for example on Windows, because I think if same amount of people who are using windows would use linux, linux would not be this secure. is it secure actually? Can you simply explain how is it secure compared let’s say to windows? Scripts do not start running themselves? Explain me like im five please." }, { "type": "paragraph", "content": "I appreciate your answers, and apologies to those who do not fly <@;)\n\nYours faithfully,\n\nDropper-Post\n\nnihil sub sole novum\n\nhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WwO0CDYxyxc" } ] }

Yeah i know what you mean. I never thought about it. Thanks. I am fairly new on lemmy. I sure do miss more memes on reddit but damn you are right.
ah yes, true dat, I happened to comment sometime ago on some posts like related to luigi mangione as one of the first ones, and got upvoted like 20k times and got awards and such. Good times good times.
it just doesnt feel right
Thanks, in the future I will provide this as vertical video in short story format on video social platforms.
I would not be so sure that I will understand. Wouldnt it make sense for you to explain for (L)users like me now instead of waiting for me another 10-20years instead I could use your advice now and change my life for better or worse?
So in reddit not engaging? What users do there then?
Thanks it means a lot to me
You can shrink dock or hide it.. but anyways so much we dont know
just because of the nature of the post, i thought die hard linux fans will find it nsfw ;D
I see what you did there ;D
