this seems like a little bit of a shitpost.
But closed source projects still get bug reports. The users just can’t fix it themselves. So where’s the advantage?
Accountability. The Dev is wishing others couldn’t see the backlog and their decision process publicly.
“What’s the usecase for issue trackers?”
No. Why would they do that?.
So that people can’t easily track how much time is spent on getting round window corners compared to how much time is spent not implementing thumbnails in a file chooser dialog?
18 years, by the way.
I, just 10 minutes ago, was looking for an artwork of mine to upload here on lemmy. I gave up. It’s beyond insane to not have a thumb nail option in the browser for a file upload.
@fafok20662 @linux Not as long as it’s constrained by an open source license, but it’s likely going to follow the sqlite model where you take it or leave it, with no feedback. Except it won’t be as high quality and alternative-less as sqlite.
Major shoutout to sqlite here.
Fantastic program, probably better because it is helmed by a dev with ridiculously high standards who doesn’t compromise with what others want.
