- Don't get baited into back-and-forth insults. We are not animals.
- Leave remarks of "peasantry" to the PCMR community. If you dislike an OS/service/application, attack the thing you dislike, not the individuals who use it. Some people may not have a choice.
- Bigotry will not be tolerated.
3. Post Linux-related content

sudoin Windows. - No porn, no politics, no trolling or ragebaiting.
- Don't come looking for advice, this is not the right community.
4. No recent reposts

That would be a valid complaint, however, I just installed krita for testing on arch running with KDE and there's only one entry.
However, there's also only a single krita entry in the list of .desktop files so idk what exactly is going on there. Maybe under KDE, it behaves differently, no clue.
It won't show up there because the files have
NoDisplayset to true, which hides them from the desktop app view, but they still show up in other places. Here's Nautilus' open with dialogue (where I noticed this):https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=403194
They says it's freedesktop standard, and gnome is at fault for not implementing the standard properly. I don't have this issue in KDE. I don't understand what it meant different files are supported by different plugins, but maybe internals depend on that structure.
Anyway gnome should be supporting that standard everywhere in all their apps
Okay but that would mean you have to open /etc/share/applications in a file explorer which you - usually - don't really do. Or maybe I'm just too much of a terminal guy to do it.
This isn't a directory, it's the list of apps that show up when you right click a file and select 'Open With'.
