You are getting down voted but you are right. But if companies making software would support Linux natively this would make a huge difference too and that is not the case now

What I do is use distrobox or any devpod and install it in the container and launch from cli. Works perfectly for me.

Would you mind explaining novodb to me? As a developer how do I use it in my app? Is there an SDK you're supposed to use or can you just query the database directly?

Why tile? (lemmy.world)
 

I feel like my eyes can only look at one thing at a time. I just have shortcuts to switch between programs.

Why do you prefer using a tiling WM and how do you use the tiling functionality in your workflow?

Why can't flatpaks just work (lemmy.world)
 

I usually try to stay out of the whole snap vs flatpak discussion. Although I am just really confused as to why flatpak just does not seem to care about usability. You're trying to create a universal packaging format I would think the point of it is that a user can just install an app and after reviewing permissions it should "just work".

There are so many issues that yes, have simple solutions, but why are these issues here in the first place.

These are the issues that I have encountered that annoy me:

  • Themes, cursors being inconsistent (needs to be fixed manually with flatpak --user override
  • IDE's are unusable without extensions

At least snap provides an option --classic to make the app work. Please explain to me why flatpak just evidently refuses to take this same approach.
