  • BTW there was a nice idea behind the only close button in early GNOME 3. Apps were intended to save the state on exit, so one doesn’t need to minimize windows, they can close it and reopen at any time and see the exact content of a window. But GNOME completely has failed to deliver that idea.

    What makes things worse, there was no clear way to keep apps on the background when the main window is closed. It was seemed as antifeature. But that was a different world where weren’t so much of internet service applications running on the background 24h a day. Now there is a background portal but with quite minimal support in the DE.




  • I don’t believe it will work. To do so it requires to maintain their own repository of RPM specs for a stable release distro. In this case Alma will became an active independent distro downstream to Fedora and CentOS Stream, and could steal the focus from RHEL. I don’t think RH will allow that. Not to say I requires significant effort and Alma is a small community funded project. It’s to good to be true and I have skepticism about the positive attitude of the blog post.

    I guess RH tries to “embrace” Alma and Rocky as it was with CentOS.


  • There are more idealistic people in the community that technical. It is hard to discus technical blockchain things: consensus, state, contracts, zkp and how those could be useful for the further improvements of the protocol and the ecosystem. The development is slow as the result with a lack of community vision about the future of the protocol. The situation is slowly changes as the coin gains more popularity.
