The amount of patches is as bad of a metric for judging development pace or quality of the result as counting the lines of code.
I like this: https://www.theideon.com/
And if you are ok with something not open source but still selfhostable and need "jira but for developers": there is youtrack, which you can find a docker img for somewhere (or you can use their cloud). It phones home to check the license and is free for up to 10 users. It's very capable and feature rich.
A smartphone can't kill me on command over the internet.

But yeah, privacy wise I agree.
Yeah just learn the EURKEY layout and you won't ever have to switch it.

Godot [...] is open-source. By proxy, Slay the Spire 2 is also open-source.
Written by somebody who naively thinks open-source means: the source code can be viewed.
Typical game journalism incompetence.
but maybe there is an actual explanation for HDMI Forum’s decision that I am missing.
Licensing money.
a long runway that allows us to become profitable when needed
Switch to self-hosting headscale when they enshittify in an attempt to become profitable, duh
tldr:
Unintuitive.
I heard of photoshop when I was 13 and I installed a pirated version, just started clicking around and I always found what I wanted in a minute.
10 Years later, I switch 100% to Linux, I have to do some light design work, I open gimp - I CLICK AROUND FOR HALF AN HOUR FOR SOMETHING SIMPLE - can't find it to save my life. Give up and google it, it gives me a reply like yours "just go to a completely unrelated menu to conjure a hack out of your ass that barely resembles what you originally intended to do".
Fuck that UX man. I am so glad pirated photoshop works well in wine nowadays and I have a VM with a legit Adobe suite if I ever need to actually whip up my license for some reason (fuck adobe as well btw.)
I pray that one day there is a real competitor that works natively on Linux. I pay, take my hard earned money every month, whatever it takes, just make it intuitive and reach near feature parity with PS.
If anybody is still reading, sorry for venting, the GIMPs always trigger me, have a nice day.
Thank you for not actually using your real blood
