kaanyalova··on End-to-End Encrypted Cloud Storage in the Wild: A Broken Ecosystem
The link on that post is down. The domain seems to be bought out. Did you not even check the post before posting it?

Most of those browsers are Chrome based or no longer being actively developed. Your only browser options are Chromium, Firefox and WebKit (Safari).
kaanyalova··on Gnome Files: A detailed UI examination
There seems to be space to right click between the rows (although somewhat small space at the smallest list view), and left-right sides of the window.

There is an image showing the right clickable areas on the issue you linked

kaanyalova··on Gnome Files: A detailed UI examination
I don't think it was "broken", it was just a dumb design choice. But I don't know why people like to whine about an issue that was already fixed either.
kaanyalova··on Gnome Files: A detailed UI examination
The Gnome version that the writer uses is Gnome 43 which was released 2 years ago.

It still seems to search for files/directories when entering the file name but it doesn't select the first file, it saves with the filename you entered. So it was fixed.
kaanyalova··on Linux desktop market share climbs to 4.45%
Why not use the AppImage or Flatpak version of Yuzu if you want stable libraries.

I don't even remember yuzu having non AppImage releases, if you used AUR you could have just rebuilt the package instead of complaining about manually trying to find the right libraries.

A "normal user" wouldn't be using Arch Linux , building their own packages. They would just use the AppImage or the Flatpak.

kaanyalova··on PEP 730 – Adding iOS as a supported platform
"Hardware" is cheap, easily accessible all around the world, Apple hardware is not.
kaanyalova··on PEP 730 – Adding iOS as a supported platform
Even 600$ is quite a bit of money for a small open source project, especially outside of first world contries. You cannot except every single open source developer to buy somewhat overpriced hardware just to publish it in one platform.

None of the other desktop/mobile platforms require specific hardware , Windows/Linux/Android can all be virtualized/cross compiled to. The only reason you cannot cross compile/virtualize from other platforms is because Apple doesn't want you to. Its possible, there are projects that allow you to do so, but it violates Apple's license.

Also its not fair to compare hobbies like photography or music to programming, you don't need any physical hardware other than a computer for majority of the cases, except testing (even that can be done somewhat reliably by virtualization), and when you are artificially forced to buy hardware just to publish to a platform.

kaanyalova··on Manifest V2 phase-out begins
Brave uses uBlock filters, you shouldn't see any difference between them, maybe your filters were outdated?

Why does "spyware" only matters for Firefox but not other browsers, considering ~97% of the browser market share is proprietary browsers.

If people cared about privacy majority of users wouldn't use Chrome.

Also what is the point of complaining about spyware when the only viable option is Chrome (and other Chromium based browsers), I trust Mozilla more than any proprietary browser vendor. They collect less data than any of the proprietary browsers. I can actually disable "spyware" using config options. They are not some black box switches that might disable the "spyware" unlike proprietary browsers.

You can do most of that with sshfs, It isn't much different than a mounted drive.
kaanyalova··on Over a billion users could be at risk from keyboard logging app security flaw
Wouldn't refusing network access for keyboards be a better solution, on Android majority of open source keyboard apps don't have network permission at all.

At least it is possible (really annoying process) to unlock the bootloader on Xiaomi devices.
