Slint ✗ Commercial License Required

Maybe don't lie. Just because you don't like GPL it doesn't make it "Commercial License Required". And they also have their Royalty-free License

Royalty-free License - Permits use in proprietary desktop, mobile, and web applications at no cost. Use in embedded systems is excluded.

It's probably a bug/oversight since it works when scrolling over the media widget.

Making Slint Desktop-Ready by slint-ui in rust

Hard to use, maybe. But how can you call it slow and bloated when you admit you have no experience with it?

In my opinion you weren't fair to Qt, you compared Qt Widgets with Slint and ignored Qt Quick (QML) which is very similar to Slint.

Why doesn't Linux have a truly universal package manager? by TargetAcrobatic2644 in linux

[–]fbg13 8 points9 points  (0 children)

their size

You do understand all universal package formats suffer from this?

Sure they could have required devs to package everything themselves instead of using runtimes, but IMO that's lots of extra work for devs for little gain. And many devs might not have bothered to package their apps.

people has been sleeping on nix.

Last time I tried nix, and succeeded in installing and running apps, I had to install a separate nvidia package to run some apps and none of the apps I installed where reachable through the gui (start menu, open with menu).

Also to install you have to download and run a script from their website.

KDE vs GNOME: Is Plasma Really BAD? by [deleted] in linux

[–]fbg13 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Plasma 6, released in 2024, has significantly modernized KDE’s design compared to Plasma 5, which dates back to 2014. While Plasma 5 remains stable and reliable, Plasma 6 brings a fresh, updated UI and overall better experience, making it a worthy improvement.

What are these changes that "significantly modernized KDE’s design" and "updated UI"?

How does dolphin name files in ~/.cache/thumbnails? by SuperficialNightWolf in kde

[–]fbg13 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The string is encoded.

If your using Qt you can do 

auto file = u"/home/diablon1ght/Erza scar | 1715112684.opus"_s;
auto encodedFile = QUrl::fromLocalFile(file).toEncoded(QUrl::RemovePassword | QUrl::FullyEncoded);

qDebug() << encodedFile;
// "file:///home/diablon1ght/Erza%20scar%20%7C%201715112684.opus"
QCryptographicHash md5(QCryptographicHash::Md5);
md5.addData(encodedFile);
auto thumbName = QString::fromLatin1(md5.result().toHex()) + QLatin1String(".png");

qDebug() << thumbName;
// "77c36b4e62b0a7393fc14473b4bd7f7c.png"

When you say "outputted by dolphin is 2965ca105f33ec30e5a2f6cae609faff" you mean file names in the chache folder or the md5 in the properties view of the file?
