  • I entered the world of Java a few years ago, there were already memes about eclipse back then, so I was prepared to prefer Intellij.

    I tried both. Intellij is much more polished, it had some annoying bugs too, but the selling point for me was that eclipse was (is) really good at syncing every change directly to wildfly. This is a huge timesaver. The maven to eclipse plugin I think?

    I’ve tried with jrebel but it’s not as quick and reliable as with eclipse.

    I am fully prepared for a solution where Intellij is better so please let me know, but no one in our organisation (which has about 50 devs) has found it.

    I have never owned a console, but have been playing games since I was 4 (that would be 1981). Also I can’t remember paying for anything in those days :-) Everything came on cassettes and floppies.

    I made some very basic text based games back then. Nothing that anyone else would ever play :-)

    (Also I am a developer, but not in the FOSS sphere)

    So why do so many people seem to think Linux needs to become bigger on Desktop?

    Personally I am not looking forward to the consequences: capitalism will make sure there will be something on Linux to make money off. They will try to conquer it, introduce walled gardens, stores you will have to pay for, by watching ads.

    Android was Open Source once until Google decided to mainstream it.





  • I could not turn off mouse acceleration, which was a deal-breaker for me.

    Actually not Wayland’s fault if I remember correctly, something about libinput changing it’s format, and my window manager wasn’t compatible with it yet. After trying for several hours I found a bug report (can’t find it right now). The Devs thought it was a minor issue, but for me it was huge so I decided I’ll wait another year.

    I must say, Wayland was smoooooth, didn’t even experience X as slow until I tried Wayland.
