OOH

So that church that I heard was using its non-profit status to create an untaxable 32 billion dollar investment portfolio that got exposed for using 13 shell companies to hide the holdings from the public was a Mormon one! Who could have guessed!

Telegrams billionaire founder claims that he is bankrolling the thing with his personal wealth. I'm pretty sure he also claimed at one point that the average user cost them $6 per year, or something along those lines.

  1. Idiot proofing
  2. Automation, integration and premade scripts and GUI tools for the use of tools such as wine and other pain point relief software
  3. Idiot proofing
  4. Decrease choice fatigue by decreasing the number of choices visible by default as much as possible (Ubuntu is an okay example/starting point in my opinion)
  5. Make a one-stop-shop wiki or equivalent with the specific purpose of giving explanations to non Linux-savvy people

I think that the proliferation of software/app centers is a great development when it comes to package management. Guides should mention them as an option to install whatever packages are needed, as a lot of people are clearly afraid of terminals.

Which leads to the “more GUI tools” point, which I'm sure everyone knows by now.

Also, you know how Windows update is so aggressive with getting you to update? That's for a reason.

They decreased it?? People always complain about max file sizes being too small.

Also, how is telegram able to offer 2 GB per file and 4 GB on premium? In comparison, that seems astronomical!

The opposite is true as well! Some people literally can't read white text on a black background.

Including both light and dark mode is a matter of accessibility!
