Maybe the "you never get a second chance for a first impression" is indeed unfair but it is hurdle for adoption.

In my case my motivation to keep using and trying LibreOffice is driven by the hate for MS and not by the love for LO.

For example: I went through some eye surgeries and really needed a dark mode. But I couldnt get a dark mode in which buttons still were cleary visible. Icons not showing well and hard to tell what they were for. Meaning I kept hoping the tooltips showed something usefull. But "reading" icons is a bit strange .... I am sure if I search forums, git issues and documentation something usefull will turn up.

And maybe its infantile like you said but I sure like contextual filled menubars since PaintshopPro in 2005. So whats with the empty menus showing a handfull buttons and everything else in some cornermenu? Seems like a waste of screen real estate.

As for dataloss: sure my data wasnt lost but loading and pivoting a 90k row data table made Calc freeze and only restarted after killing it. 90k is not for everyone but it sure isnt a lot either in spreadsheet land.

Got chills down my spine initially but was a "good" scare .... the one which makes me carefull next time before any real damage is done. 🙈👍

Also the article doesnt have any critical question how BlueSky is a "mediated" network instead of decentralised ...

Its in the original post. To create a distraction less or more less environment to prepare for exams.

I prefer FOSS as much as possible and didn't read all comments on YouTube but ... desktop applications are not SAAS. eg LibreOffice and Adobe apps. But I guess it only requires a different title as the list itself is useful

I wanted it to work because of its place in the timeline, before everything else and provide more history.

This one time I got this catch22 situation with a service.. Turned out password reset in the Android app accepted 32 characters but in the browser less.

Now do support for Notepad++ plugins and language linting 😁😎😂

Had this once at a retail store while paying. Entering PIN without muscle memory. .... Weird and almost made 3 errors which would have blocked my card.
