I'm already aware of a few small UI oddities. There were quite a few changes in the frontend, so I kind of expect these. Please let me know if you see anything weird. You can comment here, or open a bug report. I expect to do a patch release by tomorrow.

Well, it's statically typed, and it's memory safe. (There can be some race conditions during concurrent execution, but that's not relevant for simple scripts.)

Agree, although I've recently replaced the python usecase with Go. Almost as easy to write, but much faster and safer.

It's perfect for daily interactive use, but terrible for scripting. I write almost all my scripts in bash, the only exceptions being convenience scripts for fish itself.

My first ever distro was Xubuntu. (I did install Lubuntu before it, but found it too "ugly" so switched to Xubuntu after about 30 mins.)

I was still in high school, around 2014-15. My pc was getting old, and I read online that Linux can make your pc run faster. So, I decided to give it a try. I also read online that Xubuntu (and Lubuntu) is among the lightest of distros, so decided to install that. It was worthwhile, to say the least.

I currently use mostly EndeavourOS and AlmaLinux for my personal machines, depending on the type of the device. I have installed Fedora on my sister's laptop, and Debian Stable on my parents' PC, so I have to maintain those as well. Also, I have a few Pi zero2s for various things, so I use PiOS (or whatever it's called these days) from time to time.

Does it work with ISO files? It's not clear from the website.

I really like Popsicle. It deserves more love.

I just use lsd --tree.

IIRC, earlier there would be a button to upload to imgur whenever you took a screenshot. I guess now you'd need to intentionally enable the feature to see the button.

I develop open-source code. But that never made me one of the “I hate proprietary software or IT giant corporations” types.

Maybe it should've.

I really love moonfly. It's mainly a (neo)vim theme, but has been ported to many other tools.

He must've disabled it on purpose as it's on by default on new repos.
