An alternative to Ubuntu will emerge when competent people have reached the limit of their patience. Personally, I am more and more tempted by Debian. Ubuntu has become a dangerous tool.

We must, one day, realize that .NET will disappear when Microsoft stops supporting it. All work done with this framework is only a prison for future developers. This must end.

Hello everyone, I'm serious, this is the last post you can do, in gpl 3, what do you say. This is the last possible communication of knowledge.

There are different languages. The jokes are symptomatic of the differences. I'm not Indian but English is laughable for many good reasons. Without damage...
Personally, I use a <input type="checkbox"> to do that kind of thing, like the hamburger menu.
Re:Linux Mint Debian Edition 5 is here on Sunday March 20, 2022 @11:42AM (#30743596)
I've been using Kubuntu for a few years. There are no snaps, and not too many opinions, everything is option. I only use LTS to avoid breakage. I also avoid Neon to avoid said breakage and the packages are too exotic for my need. Kubuntu LTS is good on its own. Good luck on your journey.
As a Quebecer, I will allow myself to highlight the intention behind this surprising proposal. Quebec's French-speaking artistic community is very rich and very lively. The musical tastes of Quebecers are also very diverse, in both English and French. Only, from a commercial point of view, English-speaking music enjoys a very large exposure and it is very easy to forget that other music also exists. Canada, from a constitutional point of view, officially recognizes 2 languages: English and French. Laws impose on the broadcaster a certain percentage of content in these 2 languages. However, French does not benefit from the strength of attraction of English on the North American continent. The Quebec government has therefore decided to do its part to increase the visibility of French-language music in Quebec, more specifically, Quebec French-language music. It is an action of resilience, one among many others that we feel obliged to do to avoid disappearing like all the other French-speaking populations of America.

The link in your GitHub page to purchase your app point to a 404. "This software is available for $5.00 through videohubapp.com"

It's a very nice app!
