- lwkl 5y agoSo what? Why should they continue to support some minor feature if it costs them a lot of resources and they think it's not worth it because it doesn't really fit their project? If you have a feature that is used by one customer out of thousands but it's causing problems at every update you push out. It might be better to remove the feature and fire the customer, than to keep supporting it no matter what.
- malermeister 5y agoThey're not customers though. They're an open source community. Not everything is a business and this is an anti-community move.
- smoldesu 5y agoThen let them enjoy their broken interface, and, yunno, let people fix it when it breaks. Like how Open Source works.
- notriddle 5y agoExactly. Now you know why the application developers are so loud and angry. We can’t have nice things because distributions shipped broken default configurations, and that’s messed up.
- smoldesu 5y agoDon't say "the application developers" like we're all one person. There are multiple GTK developers in this thread that don't care what distros ship with: this is exclusively a GNOME complaint. Don't drag the rest of us into this.
