- FLAVOUR: Desktop
1. - HEADLINE: Thumbnails in file upload window
1. - DESC: I can't preview thumbnails in the file upload window in Firefox or Chrome (Ubuntu 16.10 here)
2. - HEADLINE: Built-in flux-like settings
2. - DESC: Would like to be able to control blue-light with a native program, as I have had problems with flux (it doesn't seem to be developed with Ubuntu or Linux in mind)
3. - HEADLINE: Exfat support in kernel
3. - DESC: Some devices I use unfortunately are set to use exfat and I can't change them, current exfat support is pretty bad, so please get this working nicely
4. - HEADLINE: Bcachefs support in kernel
4. - DESC: I have been reading about this new and interesting fs, it seems like a good thing to add.
5. - HEADLINE: Add more i/o schedulers to the kernel
5. - DESC: The current choice of i/o schedulers in the mainline kernel is not great, add some popular ones.
6. - HEADLINE: I HATE the current archive manager, please change it or fix it
6. - DESC: The archive manager in 16.10 has to be the worst component by FAR, it is always crashing and doesn't support many archive types out of the box, so please do something about this, as I guess a lot of people depend on this, but it is SO shoddy that I am sure others feel my pain.
7. - HEADLINE: Please try to stop the NIH syndrome of Ubuntu
7. - DESC: for lucky number 7, please stop with the NIH mentality that is prevalent in Ubuntu, sometimes you don't make the best decisions and the rest of the Linux community does, don't let arrogance or your dominance over the Linux marketshare push you into making stupid decisions (see Mir) that go against the general trend in a bad way. Some of us just want an easy-to-use efficient Linux, if you keep making us choose between your weird decisions and comfort, there will come a point where we make the same decision we did when we chose to not go with comfort when we dumped Windows in exchange for a practical system.
8. - HEADLINE: Put more pressure on hardware companies for drivers
8. - DESC: Don't accept the status quo when it comes to shit driver support. Lean on Nvidia and the others until they start to realise we want proper driver support.
9. - HEADLINE: Look into more optimisation (like Solus)
9. - DESC: I was interested to learn about Solus, which uses some optimisation techniques that seem a little underused in the community, so look into giving Ubuntu users that also.
I know, I don't ask for much.
And thanks for the great OS!
