I was already aware of this fork. I haven’t tried it, but does it really fix most of the UX issues of GIMP?

From the update:

One area we want to focus on after 3.0 is improving our UI/UX design process. We have set up a separate UX repository to report and discuss issues related to design. We are looking to build a team of designers to discuss and create design improvements to GIMP that also respect existing user’s workflows. Denis Rangelov has taken a strong interest in this area and has already done great work in identifying, categorizing, and moving design issues from the code repository to the dedicated design section. Some design improvements have already been implemented for 3.0, and we look forward to working with community designers to give people a better experience!

It’ll take some time, but it seems like improvments may be coming.

Ubuntu isn’t terrible, there are just bad things on Ubuntu that aren’t present in other distros.

I’m afraid this answer isn’t 100% correct. There are ways to find out a file’s type beyond looking at an extension. For example, there are lots of file formats where all of the files start with a specific sequence of bites, known as a file signature (or as “magic bytes” or “magic numbers”).

You can try the file command line tool to check that you can find out a file’s format without resorting to its extension, and you can read the tool’s manpage to learn how it works.

I don’t think you answered the question on the title. Why should most people not use Slackware?

This website is amazing, thank you for sharing

If you don’t want to use PowerShell in Linux, there’s also nushell, which is another (non-POSIX) shell that can process Excel files

I liked your guide, but the vocabulary feels a bit too technical for people who have never used Linux before and aren’t tech savvy.

How do you think one should get started with Emacs? Should they start start with regular GNU Emacs or should they install one of the “distros”?

No matter how good or bad the books are, their cover art is so cool

Pretty interesting theming, I must say

h and l are overrated, use w, b, e and f instead.

Can someone please explain the joke?

Imagine doing a marathon and just start uncontrollably bleeding from your nipples. It must be super weird.
