The specific criticism I think that generates the hostility you're experiencing is something like "Linux should be easier to use / easy to use for the everyday computer user". In general I think most people would agree with you, but it comes across as an ignorant comment given the well-known economics; and especially in the context of a conversation about someone who is unwilling to contribute or at least build their own software.
- AnIdiotOnTheNet 6y agoWhere am I saying that? I have a specific criticism, that package management is unnecessary complexity that introduces more problems and limitations than it solves. It has nothing to do with being easy. > but it comes across as an ignorant comment given the well-known economics What the fuck does economics have to do with it? > and especially in the context of a conversation about someone who is unwilling to contribute or at least build their own software. I do both of those things. Your condescending conclusion otherwise is emblematic of my problems with Linux Desktop as a community.
- hashkb 6y agoWhy didn't you just build Krita and then come here to leave some relevant feedback instead of complain about package management in general?
- AnIdiotOnTheNet 6y agoBecause I didn't have to build Krita myself just to use it, and I appreciate that fact and wanted mention it.
