The ad bubble needs to pop.

No fucking way. Not even if the car was free.

This could be paraphrased as “GUI for the GUI settings, non-GUI for the non-GUI settings.” It’s not surprising to me that parts of Linux that run on systems that don’t have GUIs do not have GUI settings. I understand the frustration, but building those is more work, and more things that can break, go out of date, etc…

What if Linux presented its config files in an app like regedit? Would that be easier? I doubt it. But with complicated data structures, making a first-class app just to edit a specific text file or set of files on disk is a very low ROI for engineering hours.

Who cares. Reddit is dead to me, and spez murdered it.

Reddit was amazing. I will always enjoy and fondly remember what it was like before Spez fucked up one of the most reputable cultures and brands in internet history. Fuck that guy… just… what a fucking shithead to destroy something so wonderful.
