lockfiles are useful to speed things up, you avoid waterfalling and as some people mentioned, if a dependency of a dependency provides an important security patch, do you want to w…

and then you're still stuck with the inferior performance and acoustics, why would you want to do that?

it's literally the worst experience, though sure, it is an experience

how making everything harder made iphone "the first usable smartphone"? that makes no sense

it's more ergonomic not having to use device that actively tries to hurt you

the physical and mental pain related to the terrible "keyboards" and cooling systems and small, poorly positioned screens laptops offer makes the usability nearly non-existent

files transfer, installing apps unwelcome in the main store, using proper contextual content blocker

"new way of working" on iphone is using fork to move soup from your pot to bowl instead of ladle, that simply doesn't work pinch to zoom doesn't interfere in any way with easy app …

if it adds some ingenious new features but at the cost of removing some basics it is still behind, that's the whole point of w11 issue

in the text area it was separated into paragraphs but oh well, I guess it pretends to be markdown formatted?

there's a bit of issue there: most of users don't feel the same pain, I think huge part of edge dev team uses edge daily despite it being basically unusable and they are happy and …

anyone who tolerates laptops at all is not good at judging ergonomics and usability, they are only made so you can get the necessary minimum done when you can't access the main mac…

win7 was aesthetically awful, but usability was almost on point but KDE is slightly better, at least in these aspects I care about, of course it looks disgusting, but you don't nee…

it's simple, apple users want ugly and confusing UI while windows users want pretty and practical UI, bringing the apple one to windows will never work

I think having some people daily driving other systems may be beneficial, providing a fresh view but if majority of your lead designers never in their lives used the taskbar they a…

I want taskbar, not a dock, I also want it improved to disable grouping (who even thought that it was a good idea to be unable to put buttons in the order you want?) I want start s…

for self driving cars, ISS and digital cameras everything you do is blurry in a sense, "good enough" approximation is actually good enough while character encoding and transformati…

looking at available bindings I guess c++ is still the least terrible choice this or JS one yeah, I know, there are some py lovers but I can't stand this thing

Delphi was a pretty fun thing: nice IDE and nice language (would prefer c-style, but still c++ is much less friendly), but terrible licensing made it niche (VS had completely free,…

you mentioned "nice looking" but then linked everything that looks like homework project from some web design course instead of proper, intuitive app

it's amusing how they managed to make the new installer as bad as old one was
