KDE's Smart window placement always annoying me where it randomly scatters windows you open where it thinks you want it, which always it NOT where I want the window. Instead of ranting and stomping off in protest, why not just go to desktop settings select Windows Behavior, then Windows Behavior again, and select some other placement scheme, such as "Under the Cursor"?
Placing things "where you want" is asking for a sense of omniscience that, quite frankly, I don't want any computer to achieve.
Because with your attitude, Linux is going to stay at 1% market share, and never said I'm stomping off, nor am I ranting. It's exactly attitudes like your which are the very problem with Linux on the desktop and why it stagnates, practically going nowhere
Pretty sure it was YOU who said this:
But Wayland looks to be severely delayed; what is going on with that project and when can we expect it? I thought it was supposed to be shipping already a long time ago, but every time they say "it's coming" it never happens, and the current Wayland beta on openSUSE is a total disaster and barely runs on any GPU I've tried it on.
The fact that Wayland barely works and X is a hodge-podge disaster based on code from 1983, just further prooves that Linux (and this includes openSUSE) on the desktop, when we're comparing graphics and GUI's, is behind Windows and has a LONG way to go until it's "feature complete" on on par with Windows. How much longer are we all going to have to wait, and by that time how much further ahead will Windows be? Don't be a fanboy, be a realist.
If that's not stomping off, I don't know what is. Its attitudes like yours, that any deviation from Windows is some how wrong and inferior. Its these silly demands for tiny missing features, (or more likely a failure to RTFM, or even experiment with what Linux has) that holds linux at 1%. You run around poisoning everyone within ear shot that linux is unusable because you can't find one tiny feature that windows has. That behavior sends more people running away from linux than anything else. -- After all is said and done, more is said than done. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner@opensuse.org
