A nice place to discuss rumors, happenings, innovations, and challenges in the technology sphere. We also welcome discussions on the intersections of technology and society. If it’s technological news or discussion of technology, it probably belongs here.
Remember the overriding ethos on Beehaw: Be(e) Nice. Each user you encounter here is a person, and should be treated with kindness (even if they’re wrong, or use a Linux distro you don’t like). Personal attacks will not be tolerated.

Wasn't there somebody just the other day talking about Adobe's ever-growing bloated bullshit versus GIMP's sleek UI and consistent features? Oh. Right. It was me.
Was that the article about how GIMP developers refuse to fix the things that repel new users?
Honestly, I don't need the tools I use to change to become more mass-market focused. Nobody wants to eat a soup designed by consensus. I'd rather use something that suits me and have it continue to suit me than need everything to be the biggest most popular thing. Popularity seems to kind of ruin things.
"Just use this thing that you've already rejected for X, Y, and Z."
"Have they fixed X, Y, and Z yet?"
" Fuck you for asking."
Just fix the damn UX and UI, that’s all I need
They've been told to do this for decades and they are proudly ignoring these requests.
