I think that there is now a phase were the bugs that are findable by AI will be reported en masse, and there will be a period of patching them and working through the queue. After this we will end up with better software overall, which is what Linus predicted a couple months ago. That said there still needs to be a penality for crap reports, because those are still received, making us loose time on what is functionally just spam.

It actually helps the discussion if I can understand your point, you might want to add a verb in your first part, I say this as a non english speaker so bear with me. My data points are public info, I pointed you to where to find them, rtfg.

The reason this person is getting downvoted with no answer to their good points is an indicator as to why the subject is sensible. Someone (admittably an asshole) found how to solve a problem, wrote a suite that does a very good job where the alternatives were absolute crap, and all major distros started using it. Everybody is free to write another alternative, but everybody that is capable knows that systemd is probably better than whatever they could make, so that is what almost everybody is using.

Usage and contributions data on debian and rhel, the vast majority uses systemd and does not complain about it.

People don't care about this beacuse they will make it so that if you don't ask questions it just works. In the meantime those of us that need to work in these jurisdictions need to comply with the bullshit so we hope to be able to continue to work with linux, but if that won't be possible we will be forced to write software for microsoft or whatever else in the apple crap. That is why there will be forks for the hobbyists, but for those that need to actually use a computer to make a living, compliance was always the only creal choice. And as usual some asshole will come with the usual nazi comparison with compliance, like they did in the other seven posts were the subject was discussed. These people can risk their own family but the way they write, they probably aren't even responsible for themselves

All used profusely by hobbysts and evangelists, the kind of people with a lot of spare time to write bullshit online, and never ran more than 5 machines for more than a year with evolving operational requirements.

Debian for work and my home machines that I don't need to be the latest and greatest (nas, media centee). Arch on personal, éess implrtant machines

Nope, I am a muppet whose livelihood depends on them respecting the law. If you are from one of the godforsaken regions doing stupid laws you should vote against them, I need to comply with your laws because I need to work to feed my family. You can call me a spineless muppet all you want but I am not the cause stupid laws exists, take it on the californianas for that crap, they elected the idiots doing this. I vote our own idiots and until now they made it clear this bullshit is not on their table, thank you wery much but I did my part.

Discussions happen after the PRs in most projects, because there is no point discussing code that ain’t there.

Other inits are not relevant, because of their own choice to not do the job correctly last time they had a chance to

With all respect to the impressive work, I am still convinced that if someone really really needs photoshop over gimp, they should pay it and accepta windows as a necessary evil. Honestly 90% of those convinced they actually really really need it are just reluctant to learn gimp. Which is understandable, because they don’t have the time. But in that case they also don’t have the time to do all of this.
