I use CMake and I hate CMake, it’s the true write once and forget language.
The real problem is C++ missing what cargo is to rust.
Unfortunately we’re in too deep, everyone has their preferences and they’re very strongly opinionated about them, maybe some rightfully so.
I’m a bit of a 3-4 pm leaver (always do stuff on schedule)
Linux mint if you don’t plan to learn the ecosystem in detail, Manjaro if you have cold feet about wanting to learn the ecosystem, Artix, Arch or Nix if you want to learn the ecosystem.
There’s many adjacent options but hopefully that gives you some direction
It’s worse imo because developers always put their ego up front
I use arch btw but I really hate the bijillion distros we have and the fact that people act like they matter, and yes I get the irony (btw).
When I first started I was really into KDE (I still like the kde effort) but the actual software was just bug ridden and weirdly out of phase aesthetically. Which is why we have other options like gnome and so on.
At the same time I feel like if the Linux community could combine their efforts instead of having dozens of developers working on the same thing with slightly different philosophies we’d be miles ahead of windows and Mac.
It’s complicated because options are good and the effort is welcome and it ultimately grows the community but I feel strongly as though when it comes to developer power and efficiency Linux is really spreading itself thin and it absolutely has to do with core philosophies differing between teams.

I don’t have a perfect hairline so having that extra length just gives more styling options without looking my age
Same, 2 on sides 3 inches off the top, sometimes it’s “leave 2-3 inches on the top”
It’s because hard drives don’t turn every written bit into a 0. Instead it tells the operating system that the region you deleted is free for writing again.
At some point in the future through usage that region will either be corrupted or have something completely different in it (from our perspective though it may read as corrupt it will still work as expected when written into)
When the CI takes longer than 10 minutes
It just lost an artistic spark it had and now every game just uses anime 3d models
I loved this art style so much in fire emblem. Deeply dislike the new 3d model art it just looks so bad
The conflict between seeing so many German users but also wanting more people on Lemmy altogether. Alright Germans… You win this time
It’s just a dog whistle and you know exactly the kind of people who do this and what party they vote for
“that could be me on the right if I sit in this desk 9 to 5 for the next 30 years” 🤡
I learned English (3rd language) and the phrase “dressed in drag” made no sense to me
