And it isn’t just a matter of numbers, but of content quality too. My impression is that those who are leaving Reddit for the fediverse alternatives right now are also those that create more meaningful and useful content. So the loss for Reddit is already much larger than the numbers tell.
This also connects with the strange way of reasoning about “making profit”, and with some comments I’ve read saying “did Reddit users expect a free lunch?”. The point is that the value of Reddit comes exclusively from the content, and the content was given for free to Reddit by the users. Reddit was having a free lunch too. It’d be funny if people started to say “You want me to post and create content on this platform? Well pay me then”.
Personally, not. The reason I switched to Plasma is that I didn’t like the basic layout – horizontal bar especially – and wanted a desktop environment that allowed me to customize positions and sizes of bars and so on as much as possible.
Still baffles me why they steal the screen’s usually scarce vertical real estate with a horizontal bar, instead of putting it on the side…
Great that it’s in the todo-list anyway. I usually use the Any2DjVu server for converting and OCR-ing documents in pdf format. The djvu file is typically 20% size of the original pdf, and the OCR is usually better too. I’ll check on your project regularly for updates :)
PS: nice software your Paperwork. I hope in the future you’ll add support for djvu format – most of my documents are in that format (it saves a lot of memory for scanned documents, compared to pdf).
Deleted my account there and moved here. But I hope all pathological downvoters will stay there…
Octave is great! Just wanted to add for completeness that Matlab is also available for Linux (in some places you’re simply forced to use Matlab, so it’s good to know you don’t need to leave Linux for that).
