🧵

The other day I learnt that @kde is brewing their own Linux distribution, and it’s been living rent-free in my head since. And I think I’ve come to a conclusion.

I am 100% sure that those involved are 100% vested in the idea - but yet, it sits 100% wrong with me.

Why? What if GoodYear starts making their own cars? They would tight-fit their tyres to their own cars, not all cars in general. Same if Pirelli starts makeing their own cars.

    @kde 🧵(4/4)

    Leave others to what they do best. Focus your efforts on what matters - there is still a whole lot to do in KDE to make it the best there is. A massive amount of issues to work out in the UI/UX so that drawing in new users doesn’t have to be a long walk on broken glass.

    And the project manager that thought this would be a good idea? Reassign him to making Kcalc better.
