michael MJD, is that you?

thanks

yes, i am a fascist bastard, how have you noticed? was it because i frequent a niche leftist-leaning decentralized social media, or because i have a penguin on my profile picture referring a left-associated group of operating systems that has much of it’s community ramble about how terrible corporatism is?

i don’t think so, if there was another context i would absolutely agree with you, but following the discourse this, on my eyes this is phrased more like “men are getting more lonely but not women” or “men are getting more lonely, and it’s because of women”; if it was another person, this would be the case, but this text did not mentioned any social acceptance of man’s loneliness

this is one of the most stupid ideas i’ve ever heard. I love it

there is a male loneliness epidemic

This one has a lot less sex than the others, but still does, it should be labeled NSFW

I don’t get it, like, none of it

Why is the animation like this, and why this is not funny?

On 5, i mean I don’t see how you can switch tasks with it, like you know, a dock, or a task manager widget in plasma or windows.

I can point out some immediate problems:

1 - I can’t see the cursor, hope this is because of the screenshot tool you’re using, but if it’s too small elderly people may lose it.

2 - the icons and text on the top panel are light grey… The panel is white, this provides terrible contrast and is yet another thing elderly people won’t see well

3 - there are two ways to switch apps, the top panel, and the dock, this is needlessly confusing

4 - most people (inclusiding elderly) are most accostumed to windows, which you have changed in XFCE In favour of looks; if you wish to create something people can use with ease, you better go for the windows look to avoid friction.

5 - this doesn’t look like a very functional dock, which didn’t you use plank, or crystal dock? That would provide better functionality.

6 - why did you think gnome 2 was a good base for your project? Gnome 2 might be cool and all, but as all old Linux interfaces it is needlessly complex and quite outdated usability-wise, unless the elderly people you’re talking about are nostalgic Linux veterans they won’t find this amusing, intuitive, or otherwise familiar to use, much for the contrary

Also why are you reposting this?

That’s a tad bit too specific… Did you choose help out?

That looks to me like way too much harm for keeping private property

Yeah, have you tried the simply optimised modpack too? It is really nice.

Still tho, the issue is really vanilla, they haven’t fixed it, sucks performance wise

Minecraft java currently is really laggy, this looks like a nightmare to run on low to mid range devices

And it’s based on fedora? Man, that’s great
