File uploads don't work and the Linux Appimage won't start.
It is not about the code. It is about using other company's server resources.

Nothing about the content of the site, but please stop determining the language of the user based on geolocation. If the browser says he wants English, serve English.
They had official documentation on how to do this, although this page has been deleted: https://web.archive.org/web/20160115055656/http://wiki.wineh...

So even more incentive to use public transportation.

That is what makes micro so easy to use. It uses widespread hotkeys.

I don't know how the website was translated, but the German translations are terrible.
Don't determine the users language by the country the request is coming from. My browser wants English, despite me being in Germany, so don't show me the German page. The good thing though was that besides the language selector nothing else was translated.
This seems more of an problem when living in the USA than an SMS problem. I'm in Germany and there is no way someone gets a new SIM card without someone checking the persons personal ID.

Add calc to your favourites (programs on the left bar). Now it comes before Libre Office Calc when you enter "calc".

It was part of Google+ until very recently. So my guess is, that they just moved it.

When you watch the YouTube video linked in the article it seems like lot of the content is gathered in the USA and then brought over on a drive / stick. There are also many people involved in gathering the content.

This is very close to the end of the Readme in my opinion the wrong default setting.

Seeing the level of shitty ported Linux programs I see this as a pro.

This would be easier with Skype if you have 2 Skype accounts?
