Yes, I admit I am at factory repo, but I was always at a factory grade repo, from the days of 7.x on.
At that time you used only release, there was no public access to factory ie. development, which is sometimes pre alpha quality. Comparing release and development is obviously logically not correct.
Also, the simplicity is gone.
It is still simple if one takes time to learn new ways, which is hard for people that once were knowledgeable and now they have to learn again, but that is nothing Linux, KDE or openSUSE specific. Each branch of human knowledge is that way, those not willing to learn, or not understanding that they have to learn, will one day discover that "simplicity is gone".
With KDE4, so many new concepts and layers of complexity have been introduced.
As above, nothing KDE specific.
Every day on this list I witness a lot of confusion and lack of understanding of these concepts among users.
Old users have to learn, and they are trying to avoid that. New users need advanced users to learn from, which is hard to fulfill with old users not willing to learn, so there will be some confusion until kids learn new stuff on their own and take position of advanced users for those that are coming. Then all that will recycle. I guess I wrote about that somewhere. It is a natural cycle that runs since ever. -- Regards, Rajko -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org
