Yeah, I wish for a “Blender” moment for GIMP. Big improvements to the UI/UX to bring more (non-tech) users and code modernization to bring in devs.

While Krita focusses on drawing, I found it basically just as good at photo editing as GIMP. So today I don’t use GIMP at all and do everything in Krita.

None of the items in your screenshot are games?

Disclaimer: I haven’t read the article

A wise choice in this case. It’s 23 paragraphs that mostly describe standard Thunderbird features (as the author usually does not use email clients) and only one list with three (!) bullet points of new features in Betterbird.

Edit: to save you a click, here’s the list from the article (the actual feature list on the project page is longer):

Some notable features include:

• System Tray Icon (Linux)
• Accent Colors (for folders)
• Multi-line Inbox View (disabled by default)

Thanks for posting this. Been using Linux exclusively for almost 10 years now but I still miss scrolling by clicking the MMB. I have some problems with my fingers so using the scroll wheel is rather unpleasant, yet necessarily, especially when scrolling down slowly and steadily for a long time (e g. while reading/scanning stuff)

Yeah I think most complex and long-term OSS projects have “employed” contributors paid by donations or sponsorships (e.g. Linux, Blender, LibreOffice, …)

I mean it’s just copy and paste boilerplate and has nothing to do with the problem so I think it’s pretty accurate…
