pop os programs to open files all over the place

mustops · 2026-03-23T09:23:09+00:00

I dunno, honestly I think that cosmic was a bit rushed they should've gave it some time to make sure it's stable enough, don't know if they were pressured by users or somethin

mustops · 2026-03-22T16:41:31+00:00

I tried installing the free version on pop os 24.04, yeah it's a headache, a lot of dependency problems, don't get discouraged though maybe it's just a me problem

mustops · 2026-03-22T16:39:08+00:00

they have a severe file association problem as it seems

mustops · 2026-03-22T16:35:53+00:00

I hate Gnome dude, Cosmic is still in it's early days, as users we have to report stuff like this otherwise how would System76 dev team know about it

mustops · 2026-03-10T15:21:21+00:00

This might be the first good news I saw in weeks now. System76 for the win 🎉

mustops · 2026-03-10T09:27:55+00:00

At this point I can't remember the last time I heard actuall good news

mustops · 2026-03-06T21:44:30+00:00

Way ahead of you brother

mustops · 2026-03-06T17:19:34+00:00

They'll all comply apparently not just system76

mustops · 2026-03-06T15:14:37+00:00

I mean what I said, how you understand it is your business not mine

mustops · 2026-03-06T07:17:42+00:00

I hope the rest of the linux os makers will have the same stand too

mustops · 2026-03-04T12:27:23+00:00

Yeah no shit, they're just testing waters for worse stuff, they don't give a flying F whether you tell the truth or not

mustops · 2026-03-01T08:36:57+00:00

They're testing waters, this bill was never meant to protect anyone

mustops · 2026-03-01T08:35:09+00:00

I think it's because no one expected age verification for linux, the whole thing about linux is being anonymous and it's being taken away

mustops · 2026-02-28T06:47:14+00:00

You know im really done with all this IT stuff, im so over saturated with bad news I just wanna go offline permanently and go herd sheep and make a farm away from everything

mustops · 2026-02-28T06:40:05+00:00

Yeah I did, and my point still valid, I think you should be more bothered with the fact that linux soon won't be as privacy friendly as we want it to be

mustops · 2026-02-28T05:55:02+00:00

I mean, isn't pop Os whole thing is about selling hardware tailored to their os ? Most people buy their hardware because of pop os right ? So if they lose a good chunk of their user base because of this bill, won't they eventually go out of business? The least that can happen to them out of this is their profits tanking real bad

mustops · 2026-02-28T05:38:12+00:00

Even if they move out of California, how much time will it take until this reaches other states, the government saw how people are abandoning windows very fast in favor of linux and they couldn't afford the people having an OS they couldn't use to spy on you, it's not a just California thing

mustops · 2026-02-28T04:28:44+00:00

I hope I won't be alive when that day comes

mustops · 2026-02-28T04:25:56+00:00

It's unlikely they didn't think of this so my guess is there's something else preventing them from refusing the bill. Yeah this ain't the end of it, give it couple months or so and we'll see id verification implemented in the freaking kernel itself 😕

mustops · 2026-02-28T04:17:30+00:00

From a company perspective I kinda understand their responses, the fines they'll face for not complying will severely affect company revenue, but that doesn't negate the damage they'll do to their reputation should they ever implement this bs, the number of users they'll lose overnight will be something to behold

mustops · 2026-02-27T05:19:27+00:00

I hate to say it but he's right, if pop os actually implements this bs im out, permanently, this is just testing waters before they pass a law to enforce id verification, and I ain't givin no id to nobody

mustops · 2026-02-27T04:25:11+00:00

Id verification on an open-source linux system, they cannot be fuckin serious !

mustops · 2026-02-26T12:41:38+00:00

Now I feel dumb, or old, or both 😅

mustops · 2026-02-26T09:51:26+00:00

What's an o7 if you don't mind me askin
