Open Source@lemmy.ml•Welcome Dan Williams, new LibreOffice Developer focusing on UI/UX - The Document Foundation Blog
1·16 minutes agoI’ll give you an example since you clearly don’t understand heuristics.
Look how OnlyOffice highlights selected buttons with a light gray tint.
LibreOffice on the other hand highlights them with very strong blue color, which draws the users attention and distracts them from the document.
There are many more very bad design choices that LibreOffice makes, but it’s just a cluttered mess in general and can really put in some work to hide away all those buttons. Yes if you know where they are and use them every single day then it’s more efficient, but it takes up a lot of (mind) space to see all those buttons all the time.

2·10 hours agoThey can develop multiple UI’s. One for normal users and a classic one for people who like everything without a single menu bar or drop down menu to abstract the clutter away

5·10 hours agoIt’s a Zionist smear campaign. The fact that there were no complaints by any patients really tells you all you need to know.

World News@lemmy.world•Four countries to boycott Eurovision 2026 as Israel cleared to competeEnglish
4·12 hours agoEven for USians it’s pretty common to be flooded with Eurovision news on papers like TheGuardian. It feels like the only reason people care is because the media keeps covering it and thus people “have to see the thing everyone is talking about.”

Steam@lemmy.ml•Will game studios care about the Steam Machine?
1·2 days agoAll depends on the sales numbers. Since the Steam Deck and Steam Machine both use Linux it gets more and more interesting.

Seeing how you take great pride in mentioning the distro you use (by the way) I fully recommend using Gentoo so you can one-up those Arch peasants. That is about all the practical use you’re going to get out of it though.

Linux@lemmy.ml•Bazzite just delivered over a petabyte of ISOs in a single month
1·2 days agoWhy is Mint wasting their spot as the recommendation for Windows users? Is it simply no longer developed or are the devs set in their ways of the UI having to look like Windows7?
Also it’s getting confusing with Zorin and Bazzite and even Aurora which is a Bazzite desktop spinoff as a recommendation.

If you say something positive about yourself, it’s not worth anything. But if an adversary says something positive about you, it has meaning because they are not incentivized to say the thing.

Linux@lemmy.ml•I Tried Switching to Linux for 157 Days - BasicallyHomeless
65·4 days agoI’ve read on Lemmy that Bazzite also has some issues. I believe GN chose it as their testing distro too and had some issue. Especially for non-gaming related tasks. Aurora is also a recommendation which is supposedly a general purpose bazzite but I’m not sure if that then has gaming issues.
Someone should really do a distro test where they test the out-of-the-box functionality of all distros on different tasks

Linux@lemmy.ml•I Tried Switching to Linux for 157 Days - BasicallyHomeless
3·4 days agoYes but audio drivers still seem to be a common issue for everyone. That should really just be working out of the box by now it’s insane.
His biggest issue was Premiere Pro not working on Linux, and Davinci Resolve not supporting the AAC Audio codec which VLC recorded in which he then wasted a ton of time on to get it to work and eventually tried to vibe-code his own video editor which didn’t really work out so then he purchased Davinci Resolve premium to get AAC support.

Asklemmy@lemmy.ml•I'm new to lemmy, came from reddit. What's the lemmy etiquette like? How different is it from reddiqutte?
81·5 days agoLemmygrad an Hexbear sure. Nobody will recommend those as servers to start off.
.ml however is a pretty general server which is federated very broadly. It’s not a bad place to start off.






















Support to boycott it is actually fairly big but the political lobby gets in the way. Israel has a massive grip on Europe. The Netherlands is a bit of a surprise in this lineup, they are pretty strongly infiltrated by Israel. Guess they didn’t appreciate what Israel did to Joost Klein.
