Edit: I forgot to add context: Emmanuele Bassi (@ebassi) (pejoratively called here ebussy) is one of GNOME developers, known for removing “unnecessary” features.

Why is 4chan so weird
Yeah good question. I don’t get why it’s reposted, basically ever
Because it’s weird
Not in a good way
Aye, but what if I don’t want good things
I have no clue what any of this means, but I guess I’m not the intended audience
Gnome devs judge release success by the amount of features they managed to remove since last release and make it easier to maintain.
Eventually it’ll be one button in the middle of the screen that turns it on and off.
haha ok this becomes funny in this new light
And would you consider he’s actively harming gnome development ?
IDK, I’ve found Gnome unusable for a long time. I tried to make up for it with extensions for a while, but every release would unapologetically break something I found essential and the extension devs would give up trying to keep them going.
I understand that eventually they got better about dropping breaking changes without warning, because extension devs were leaving in droves, but at that point KDE got good again with Plasma, and I’ve never looked back.
Gnome has their vision to be a completely hands off, dumbed-down, unbreakable DE for the lowest common denominator. I guess judged by that light, it’s a success. It’s the default in a lot of distros because it’s low maintenance for packaging and support. Frankly, I think it’s a major reason for the slow speed of Linux desktop uptake, but what do I know.
Thanks for sharing your views ! I am taking an interest in Linux again because of many factors and I’d like to minimize the chances of having to try out many things things before settling on a distro that works for me. I generally don’t want to tinker, as long as the tool disappears and does its job well. So far I was under the impression that was the case with Gnome (my last experience dates back to Fedora 19 and Gnome whatever).
I’ve found kde to be pretty straight forward, it’s also the most similar to windows so you get a general feel for where everything should be. Also for me, plasma just works, but if you are unsure and using fedora you can try a love usb with each desktop before installing
I mean, I tried KDE+Wayland on an Nvidia GPU and it’s still not properly working. It should work soon, but it worked okay on gnome for like a year now
So they unironically want the macbook wheel?
My god, that was 15 years ago.
Here’s more context - https://lemmy.world/post/15006352
Ok, that sheds some light
Cheers
Get gnomed, idiot
What’s an ebussy?
Sorry, I forgot to add post body to this crosspoint. See edit.
Thank you. I thought it was an egirl equivalent for boy pussy… It does make a lot more sense now
You weren’t alone with that thought
We got the dank Linux syndrome.
Instead of brain there’s a tux doing shitposts.
It’s terminal
Shut up and take my upvote
Is he the Steve Jobs of gnome? “The user is wrong”
Another day of GNOME developers doing everything they can to convince me I made the right choice sticking with Plasma
So he is the responsible!

How did you come to the conclusion that this post is transphobic? It was a post about someone getting mutilated into a gnome, where is this about trans?
deleted by creator
There is an edit, ebussy is referring to a gnome developer.
Who is called ebassy so this doesnt change anything.
No idea of slangs though
Microsoft called microsoft, some call it microshit.
It is word joke.
The point was that the name may be trans or gay jargon or nicknames for something uncool. I dont know anything about that but that would not be appropriate.
But well its 4chan
The guy is literally called Emmanuele Bassi. E. Bassi. Ebassi.
And now read the post
This aint homophobia either. Just a joke about someone’s name
Also bussy means boy pussy. Often used within the context and by femboys
Nah it’s “hehe his handle sounds like bussy”
The real “hate” here is anti-GNOME developer hate lol
Gnomophobia, if you will.
go outside and toych grass please, buy yourself an icecream or aomething and enjoy the weather. Too much internet for yoy today

Come on, it’s just a funny greentext.
Fuck 4chan
Is 4-chan a new waifu?
If you think basic features are necessary you are a toxic and unserious person who doesn’t understand professional interfaces. /s
