I refuse to support kitty solely based on kovid's absolutely deplorable attitude. I lost count of the number of people I personally talked to who wanted to contribute but then decided not to after seeing how toxic and abusive they were to users in the github issues.

to be fair, you can ask the same of many rust devs themselves

I assume they mean non-Xorg/wayland, but I really don't know for sure.

which also removes the merits of you questioning if what he is claiming is fiction or not

yet you claim marcan is lina with zero proof?

If that does happen, I just hope there will be enough developers by then that can/will want to use it (as in, write rust code). Especially developers that can put up with the kernel process and its people.

Distros are still free to make their own RPM packages, they can't go around the GPL there.

But having official flatpak release makes it very easy to update to the latest versions regardless of your distro.

I don't consider myself hateful in the first place so I'm not aware of anything that needs changing, but I'm open to constructive criticism.

I 100% agree with you, and my apologies if I came off as hateful, I really don't think I am, but my problems are only with the people who make it their entire identity as you say, they are just exhausting humans in general and I don't really care how they want to identify or whatever, I would pose the same arguments to people of any persuasion if there was a sizeable number of them doing it.

And SMTP/IMAP do not support end-to-end encryption, so a malicious server can still spy on you even if it uses TLS.

But I dislike that it requires even going that info

I never understood this stance... do people really think a corporation is going to risk their entire company over your anonymity when their country's government does not allow this? Nobody is going to jail for you.

Plus, if everyone could easily sign up anonymously, then like they said, it would be overrun with bots and the reputation of their IPs would quickly deteriorate to where most other email providers would just block them, making the service almost worthless.
