The computing equivalent of a stick shift.

The cuts largely have nothing at all to do with AI, but it makes for a very good narrative to spin at investors.

Good luck googling for any help or troubleshooting it.English29·5 days agoThat compatibility matrix, the windows app does not support connecting to Windows from Windows… That’s some amazing product planning there from Microsoft…
I will second the suggestion at something like “expanded support for more image formats”. One of my responsibilities is rolling the development log into customer release notes and I agree with the “changes that highlight a previous shortcoming can look bad”, and make accommodations for that all the time. I also try to make sure every developer that contributed can recognize their work in the release notes.
“Expanded image format support” seems like something that if a customer hasn’t noticed, they would assume “oh they must have some customer with a weird proprietary format that they added but have to be vague about”. If it were related to customer requests, I would email the specific customers highlighting their need for webp is addressed after pushing the release notes
The only way it could really do it would be for the Windows shell to get out of the way, which it won’t.
You can with effort have some sort of abomination where you get inflicted with both UI designs at the same time…
The thing is that the shell provides so little innate functionality and delegates anything more to an ecosystem of random quality, and then subjects those authors to a pretty capricious interface that breaks random extensions every six months generally driving a lot of the authors to throw up their hands and give up.
So the native functionality is solid, though even lower features than Microsoft windows window management, and then have to apply dodgy extensions to get features that other solutions just have as a matter of course.
If I didn’t know any better, I would have assumed that gnome shell was some small demonstrator project to serve as a reference implementation (e.g Weston) rather than intended for serious use. I came over from gnome 2 thinking things went pretty far backwards, but the extensions are going to be stop gaps while they build back up to a balance desktop. But they never seemed to do that.
Ultimately, I landed on Plasma and that’s been pretty good. Have some embedded/kiosk stuff using sway thanks to the very nice scriptable facilities there, but still sticking with kwin as a daily driver for now.

Switching to Dvorak caused the gratifying result of people that would just start trying to use your keyboard without being absolutely befuddled.
