  • There isn’t a pro-grade, open source video editing tool or anything close

    Do you use open source professional grade video editing tools on Windows? Almost certainly not, so why would it be a requirement for Linux?

    What we need is companies producing Linux builds of professional grade closed source software. And if the trend of Microsoft making terrible decisions and Linux use increasing, it might actually happen.















  • Google’s entire brand was built on amazing search, and now their search is awful.

    Enshittification isn’t a conspiracy and it’s not a nefarious end-goal, it’s just a descent into shittiness. Proton continuing to sideline Linux (still no Drive support, other apps are second-class, etc) is a great example.

    If they were truly focused on the goal of promoting privacy, they would be wanting to prioritise the option for people to leave Windows and Mac for Linux. Instead, it seems like their goal is becoming “Offer all the things that are hot in the market right now.”
