Why so much hostility towards suckless? They've made a handfull of programs and some of the work well. The author hasn't even linked any software they've made despite saying that they "spent most of my free time writing code".
- tomxor 3y agoAnother form of FOSS entitlement maybe. It's ok for some quirky opinionated things to just exist, to be non-inclusive, the preference of a minority. If they are not being forced upon everyone their is no justification for evaluating them as some kind of absolutist existential threat, doing so is basically an attack on freedom of expression. The author should also consider that Suckless has formed the seeds of software that do not strictly adhere to it's philosophy. Ideas that are unappealing or impractical for the masses can still be useful to the masses, and if not, they should just leave them the fuck alone.
