The State of the Art is Terrible

But do you still report bugs?

I've gone to report GNOME or Ubuntu bugs, only to find that the problem already has a bug report from 5 years ago. The bugs are still open and unfixed, with a poor sap adding a "me too" comment every few months.

There is a YC startup in there somewhere :) Kickstarter for bugfix contributions.

I still report bugs, but nowhere near as many.

Before there was a feeling of progress: report a bug, see it fixed. Now it's report a bug and silence.
