No memes/shitposts/low-effort posts, please.
That includes posts generated by LLMs. It doesn’t matter if you “don’t have the time” or “would’ve written the same anyway”, or if “everyone’s doing it geez get with the times”.
For now it’ll also include “AI”-assisted projects that haven't had at least two months of (public, verifiable) dev time behind them.

Gnome also has a few nice things that I miss whenever I try kde or cosmic. It really depends on what you need from your DE.
I do not like cosmic. They remove random features i use a ton.
Like accessing a file address in the address bar. Why. Why can it not show the file path.
Also keyboard shortcuts rarely work. If I extract and archive, I have to mouse it all. No alt+e for extract here, nope.
Also pop shop on popos is horribly optimized.
