Not sure if anyone will ever use it, but it is out there now!

Apparently, G'MIC is now available on the Snap Store! I'm not a big fan of Snap, but if it helps users install G'MIC more easily, that’s definitely great news! 👍

I’ve never seen software developers more eager to put their apps into #Flathub and showing the middle finger to Ubuntu #Snapstore.

What the fuck they did wrong to piss off more than half of Linux developers?

Un petit short sur l'échec de mise à jour Snap-Store de Ubuntu.

Ubuntu user experience: I‘m using Ubuntu desktop for the first time in ages. It has come some way, but it‘s still not quite there. When installing Snaps there is no way to see all in progress downloads. 1Password snap crashes on start up with an error about missing libatk. debs can‘t be installed out of the box. It should be possible to get an app like 1Password running w/o these kind of issues.

I successfully got a large Ruby CLI app packaged as a Snap and uploaded to the Snap store. Unfortunately, I had to workaround a lot of issues and quirks (ex: their ruby plugin depends on core18, which is super old and uses Ruby 2.7). The Snap Ruby DX could be *much* better. I really wish Snap was a turn-key truly cross platform solution for distributing Ruby apps (macOS is temporarily not supported), but it's not there yet.

بین اسنپ‌ها دنبال یه اپ #todotxt می‌گشتم و #sleek رو یافتم. سریع و خوش‌دسته و تا این جا که راضی بودم.

دارم کم‌کم کارها رو جمع آوری و منتقل می‌کنم به این. مدت‌ها بود که فهرستی برای کارهای شخصی نداشتم. (سر کار داشتم و دارم، ولی زندگی سر کار کامل از زندگی شخصی جداست، هم نرم‌افزارش و هم سخت‌افزارش.)
