“Hey Alexa please lower the volume of this file because I’m too retarded to use the basic functions of this app”
Whats next? AI integration into MS paint because people are too stupid to draw a rectangle?
Well the Guillotine never failed




I don’t compare a hot-dog to a pile of dog poo and say “it’s good food”.
Then what is your definition of lightweight? A command line chat app?
slow to load up
literally loads within 3s
long sync times
maybe if you didn’t open it for a year yes, otherwise it’s in the sub-second area
high battery drain for mobile users
Mine is <1% for the last day. If you don’t setup proper push messaging which then requires the app to constantly wake up - yeah than it might be a problem.
room concept, as opposed to contact chats
How exactly is this a problem?
electron app sucks
Teams is also using Electron Microslop Edition
options way too hard to find at times (like how to add existing rooms to a space)
Just go into the settings and you will find 99%
Moving a room to a space has nothing to do with options and is a very uncommon task.
no online/offline status of contacts
ok guess you last used Element 5+ years ago?
trust model with device verification is unintuitive for non-techie users
Yeah e.g. Whatsapp and Signal have the exact same problems expect when you keep some (sometimes not encrypted) backup somewhere.


Sorting is not ordering. What your are talking about is ordering. I agree that Element currently has no ordering and that is kind of a bummer, however when you use a messanger like apporach it’s fine because no one orders or sorts their WhatsApp/Signal/whatever conversations by name.
Ah classic Riot games, investing all the money in anti-cheat while their launcher lacks basic functions like “download throttling”.
No idea how Steam keeps winning…


Which psychopath sorts channel/contacts?


Yeah Java is also slow because back in 1999…
Try Element X please


I assume we talk about the desktop client here.
lightweight
my brother in Christ, Discord and Teams both need like 2x the RAM so don’t talk to me about that.
user-friendly
Idk left side has contacts and groups, right side chat. What exactly is not user-friendly there?
Because a few hundred people have to do it and not just one person once.
Well apparently people can always link the bluesky post or shitty ad infested news websites but never the original article/source. Which usually takes an additional 10s to find.
That’s why I call them incompetent.
vulnerabilities tested, don’t impact the PS5 in any way, does that mean technically Sony could get sued for not recontributing code back to the Linux projects?
No.
Let’s assume someone ships the Linux kernel in a device and the kernel has a vulnerability in some obscure subsystem (e.g. AFS) that is never used by the device. The device will not be affected by this vulnerability because the code can’t be reached.
Hmm yes “vulnerabilities”.
My personal highlight: https://nvd.nist.gov/vuln/detail/cve-2026-43073
Rename misleadingly named ‘__copy_user_nocache()’ function. This function was a masterclass in bad naming, for various historical reasons. It claimed to be a non-cached user copy. It is literally neither of those things.

Of course OP is too incompetent to post the link to the source, so here we go again:


Just license everything under CC BY NC SA
This allows for


So the music industry doesn’t want you to download private copies of songs (which btw is perfectly legal) but has zero problem with charging for e.g. “Happy birthday” - 118 years after it’s creation, whilst the orginal author distributed it freely and didn’t ever get a single penny.
How do we fix this problem? It’s simple: We kill copyright (or shorten it to a few years) so that these parasitic freeloaders lose their base of support.
