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.

What the hell is that supposed to mean?
Edit: I see the point of studies, which are not needed. But especially, feeding users stuff their stakeholders want, is a crazy thesis.
Their users are their biggest stakeholders, arent they? Or is it Google?
That phrasing tells me its Google.
Sounds like extremely veiled speak for "we are going to test things out on random users to see how much bullshit they can accept"
It means they want to use telemetry to understand which features are used, to change how they deploy features. Since it's related to investment I wouldn't be surprised if it means more intrusive stuff like Pocket rather than their subtly irritating changes to bookmarks being worked out better.
I don't need feature developement streamlining based on user surveillance. I need options to disable features which are built based on a serious user feedback system if I don't need them.
Best thing about Floorp is how it lets you swap between layouts of the browser itself to me
You got me curious, but now I’m puzzled:
What does it mean by “mostly”?
You're gonna want librewolf most likely
Fake open source idk. Look i put up with a lot of shit from cutting edge japanese developers
They're going to be doing more A/B testing.
It's similar to AI regurgitated crap.
I mean it pretty clearly says that User insights will be put into development and user benefit is first.
...will that happen? Well. Probably not. But I hope so.
They're going to use LLMs to analyse user usage data to make things better?
I dont think LLMs are used for that
