You could say the same thing about MS-DOS, but if it gets the job done it will
get used. The most important thing is functionality, not UI. After all, you
can't polish a turd.
- TylerE 13y agoWhat exactly is the functionality though? They don't make it obvious - it looks like any of 1,000 generic photo sharing sites. It doesn't make any sort of compelling value proposition. What makes it so special to be worthy of being a GNU project?
- jfb 13y agoUI is functionality.
- coldtea 13y ago>You could say the same thing about MS-DOS And maybe that's why nobody uses it anymore. If you want to compare, compare to something current. MS DOS was not that amateurish looking for its age and its user base at the time. (nobody as in "mostly outliers", for you pedants)
