Pinta is a good alt for Linux.
- craftyguy 9y agoToo bad it is built on mono. I'd have to install ~200MB of dependencies for a 2.5MB application.
- oblio 9y agoI don't get this complaint. Do you have a 400MB HDD or something? 220MB of HDD or SSD probably cost less than a roll of toilet paper.
- craftyguy 9y agoYou're assuming that I have an infinite amount of disk space to dedicate to arbitrarily large frameworks that are 'required' by simple applications. If every app you used required 200MB of baggage to run, you'd quickly run out of disk space. I'd rather use my disks to store more valuable things, and, on another note, most definitely do not want to encourage the proliferation of .NET/mono.
- DanBC 9y agoPlenty of people have sub 200GB hard drives. Visit your favourite website and have a look. Here's a bunch of new products under 249 GB: https://www.newegg.com/Product/ProductList.aspx?Submit=ENE&IsNodeId=1&N=100006740%20601296060%20601296065%204814 https://www.newegg.com/Product/ProductList.aspx?Submit=ENE&I... note that some of these only have 64 GB. For these people every bit of storage is useful.
