Hi Linux Lemmites. Recently finished up school and started working full time and kind of miss working on personal projects. I’m looking to try to make something in rust and try out gpui if I can figure it out or maybe egui. I also want to make something maybe even a handful of people would actually use as I find that motivating, so I ask what would actually be useful to you?

Edit: thank you all very much for the input, I think that maybe doing something akin to a “settings+” would be a fair target for me for a n initial project. If I make anything interesting I’ll make another post in this sub.

Your question, “What features does the Windows version of Calibre have that the Linux version not have?” cannot be answered without accepting an unargued premise: that the windows version has more features than the Linux version.

Nope, it simply asks (or even expresses genuine curiosity) about a subset of features on windows which might be missing in Linux version. That's if you want to be super logical and fussy about things. If not, you could have just answered or moved the discussion in any relevant direction you would like. That was always allowed.

Ironically, you kinda did answer it, at least in part, by mentioning the AI slop bloat. Why hide your answer behind a wall of being a jerk, though? I can only speculate. Too little sleep, too many old Rationality Rules videos? :-) Thatt's none of my business; I just hope you feel better now.

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).

Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.
