DmMacniel , to linuxmemes in Flatpak haters seem to believe that if an app isn't on their distro's repos, it's the developers' fault.

Flatpak is nice but I really would like to see a way to run flatpakked application transparently e.g. don't have to

    flatpak run org.gnome.Lollypop

and can just run the app via

    Lollypop

As I said in the other thread regarding this topic. The initial MR changed one he to they while ignoring other glaring issues in that very same file. That MR was less than half assed which makes me wonder what the actual motivation behind that MR was.

you mean this one https://github.com/SerenityOS/serenity/pull/6814 three years ago? yeah that was not the nicest reaction. Bridgading in that old thread and the thread about the accepted and merged PR was not nicest reaction as well.

Also the merged PR was way more of substance and didn't just replace he with they in that one line whereas there were several occasion where that issue occured in the same file. If the original one would have been merged, the documentation file would be inconsistent.

Imagine that talking with people about issues and not just shouting and brigading them actually works. Who would have known.

also in that regard, there are languages (swedish, and my native language german are among them) with a grammatical gender to nouns. Coming then from a language like that to a language where everything is the, you really need to think twice which pronoun is to be used.

can we save vitriol for actually bad people an not small mistakes (even if is done by a maybe-conservativ) pls

yeah that would be best.

Edit: in regards to vitriol: don't be like https://github.com/SerenityOS/serenity/pull/24648 LiEnby in that thread after the code was merged. It makes us all look stupid and hateful.

in the end they actually fixed their documentation:

https://github.com/SerenityOS/serenity/commit/a2a6bc534868773b9320ec3ca7399283cf7a375b

this was the original commit by king that brought this into existence: https://github.com/SerenityOS/serenity/commit/ec91d2eb9febafd82de3b30bd76fb621f3da5026 4 years ago.

As an alternative to Nicotine+ I use slskd in a docker hosted in my raspberry pi. That way I can search/download and share files even when my main computer isn't turned on.
