  • Neither have most of photographers in the world currently using Adobe products. UX is extremely valuable and shouldn’t be a second-order consideration.

    IMO we will never see the year of the linux desktop unless devs on linux understand that their idea of a good UI/UX is not good to everyone, especially the target use case of their software. Focus groups are things that these big for profit companies do, that some random person sitting at home can’t easily do.










  • I don’t think I want steamOS

    Good because SteamOS doesn’t want you. It’s AMD only at the moment.

    Linux Mint is generally fine. But with bleeding edge hardware sometimes it’s better to be on a newer distro that gets driver updates more often. But that largely depends on if you have any issues with the current drivers. I don’t have any 50 series hardware to test to see what sort of issues there are. That said Nvidia has been making some good progress with their drivers after hiring Ben Skeggs.


  • The only way I see to solve it is to force vendors to release hardware specs and unlock bootloaders so you can install your own software on it.

    Would that actually solve it? Just because a phone has an unlocked bootloader doesn’t mean random ass people are going to want to support it. And even if some random dude on XDA makes updates for it that doesn’t mean most people are even going to want to use it. Like yeah it’s cool than a Galaxy S4 can run the latest version of Android, but that shit is buggy as hell and IDK anyone who would unironically want to use that.
