1. Can I see some evidence for that, please? Like, a peer reviewed study?

2. Who was the sample of ‘people’?

3. What is the distinction between different plants? Like, just kitchen fruits and vegetables I’d expect to be much more than 10, unless you group them all in ‘drupes’, ‘fruits’, etc

4. Even if a random distributed sample of modern English speaking people do recognise more logos than plants, that’s likely because there’s a large advertising industry trying to make it so, whereas plant recognition is learnt in school or home.

GIMP doesn’t mean anything though (besides for GNU Image Manipulation Program)? Why are you bringing it up?

I would also recommend the chatbot HuggingChat, it uses open weights models

I haven’t tried it myself, but isn’t GTK supposed to be good at that?

I think most birth doctors know how to help a trans man give birth.

Most local AI apps have cuda support for local GPU, only a few have rocm

Windows 10 wasn’t even on my list as it is not a modern OS any more (it has been replaced by Windows 11), but even so it had a better UI, without those weird UI features that just serve to look bad

• floating taskbar at the bottom, not actually at the bottom, above it
• those blue highlights around widgets that do not look good
• that horrible off white colour for widgets
• general bad design

And of course windows 11 and GNOME improve with even more UI features

• blur
• transparency that actually looks good
• rounded corners that look good

Basically, it’s not one specific thing that makes KDE look bad, but rather their general approach to design, which seems to be ‘we don’t care what we’re doing, we’ll just set the default to something random as we expect users to customise it anyway’ which is fine for advanced users, but not so friendly to new users

It might be GNOME or it might be Windows 11 (although of the Linux ones it’s still GNOME), but KDE is clearly (subjectively) the most ‘programmer art’ of the 3

Maybe unintuitive is the wrong word, but for new users the amount of options can be overwhelming, and the UI looks… not very modern by default, lol

It’s a big abstract to understand, are you trying to say that there are Linux enthusiasts that protest GUIs being made simple and intuitive, and that if they succeed, would-be Linux users will go back to Windows, which is more intuitive?

Maybe for KDE, but just introduce new users to GNOME, that’s perfectly intuitive and even looks great!

Mastodon is corporate social media?

Is this an April Fools joke?

When searching the Flathub store for markdown editors, I found Folio, which works well for me. I use Syncthing fork to sync my notes folder between Android and Linux, and use https://apt.izzysoft.de/fdroid/index/apk/com.printnotes.printnotes on Android to edit it.

I prefer Foliate, it’s GTK

What are the current logos then? Did Linux’s change?

It’s good at what it does, but what it does doesn’t seem very useful. If it added NFC payments, now that would be useful.

tar -h

I would just use #888888 anyway, but which way is it spelled, out of interest?

Why does this read from right to left when English goes from left to right? It’s quite distracting.
