I don't know if you're ragebaiting or are just a massive fucking asshole tbh, but when someone develops an application for free and for fun for anyone to use, I'm not complaining about too many fucking .desktop files.
Apparently it causes issues with "Open With" menu entry spam in some DEs. It's a minor issue but easily solvable and it impacts usability.
If that's the case, that would be a fair complaint that should be fixed, but I can't really reproduce any problems on KDE or XFCE. Then, it should also be reported as a bug so they're aware.
Agreed
While I agree that the seva should have looked out for it in the first place I think it being volunteer work and open source you or anybody else that has the time and knowledge could fix it too and give back. If it's indeed easily solvable.
It doesn't mean it is free that it has to be mediocre. I also do work for "free and fun" and I don't see it as a reason to take a shit on my project. Either accept criticism or just keep the damn code for yourself.
Yeah you're ragebaiting good one lmao
