Unsafe,

It actually has a ui. But it looks minimal enough. I’ll try it.

Unsafe,

It doesn’t support OPDS-PSE, which is the most common way of tracking progress.

Unsafe,

Kavita, same as Komga requires too much RAM.

Komga can track ebook reading progress, by converting them to images.

Unsafe,

ConnectBot is fine.

Unsafe,

Fight for Americans’ fit bodies! Stop illegal oil production!

Unsafe,

Why do we invent new DEs instead of making proper settings app in already existing ones?

Unsafe,

If you will create “next gen” desktop, you will just solve some problems of already existing ones and create your own. Maturity of software is far more important, than uniqueness. GNOME didn’t evolve into its current state for no reason.

Unsafe, (edited )

Not really. Best Foss projects do not always thrive. Git wasn’t really better than mercurial. But it had happened to be published earlier, so it got wider adoption.

Unsafe,

Fortunately such “new choices” get abandoned very quickly. Making new solution instead of improving existing ones is counterproductive. Unless there is a large legacy codebase. Smart people have invented Unix principles to avoid that.

Unsafe,

Gollum. Hit integration is required if you value wiki content.

Unsafe,

There is an example: https://www.agwa.name/blog/post/how_to_crash_systemd_in_one_tweet

Unsafe,

Compare it to vulnerabilities found in SysVinit, which was as common as systemd-init is now. There were no similar bugs, that would allow crashing an entire system just by executing a single command.

Unsafe,

the added difficulties of making it system agnostic did not compensated for the low user base

  • 2003: Udev was launched, providing support for musl, non-systemd distros, and others.
  • 2004: NetworkManager was launched, with Udev as a crucial dependency.
  • 2006: Dbus was created without dependencies on distro-specific packages.
  • 2009: Dbus becomes a dependency for NetworkManager.
  • 2010: Red Hat introduces systemd, with core components including logind, journald, and timers.
  • 2012: Developers made udev less compatible with old kernels, musl-based, and non-systemd Linux distros by merging it with systemd. You can find more information about this here: https://lwn.net/Articles/490413, https://lwn.net/Articles/529314/
  • 2017: PipeWire was launched, with logind as a dependency.
  • 2017: Reimplementations of the bus protocol called dbus-broker were launched. Its compatibility launcher requires systemd.
  • 2020: After systemd had already been adopted by all major distros, systemd-tmpfiles gained the ability to be built as a standalone executable.
  • 2022: WirePlumber was launched, with pipewire as a hard dependency.

Looks like Red Hat makes everything they can systemd-dependent. Including Gnome.

Unsafe,

I deleted it. No need for two almost identical posts to exist.

Unsafe,

Misconfiguration is possible in any software. It’s not specific to sysvinit or systemd-init. Selinux was created to solve this.

Unsafe,

Openrc…

Unsafe,

Not really. Void, alpine, gentoo are the only usable ones(besides non-systemd forks of arch and Debian). These are the only ones maintaining enough packages, providing enough documentation, not being just poorly maintained forks of X distro.

Unsafe,

Linux Libre makes Guix unusable on most hardware. It also requires much effort to configure. Learn scheme, how to use shepherD, etc.

Unsafe,

IMO the closest one.

Unsafe,

Some seem to use Debian.

Unsafe,

Wayland is like Busybox runit. Xorg is like SystemD.

Unsafe,

Ncmcpp, MPV with scripts

Unsafe,

There is really no reason to implement extensively audited runC in C, but the Dev only has the journey, no goals.

Unsafe, (edited )

It’s really cool, when automation tools create more problems than they actually solve.
