What makes you not want to use Linux anymore and maybe move back to Windows, MacOS, or TempleOS?

The fucking GTK file chooser. It’s like all application developers have made a pact with each other to never use a consistent UX, with the exception of having to press ctrl-L to edit the path textbox. It’s painful. And as much as I like XDP, support for it is spotty at best, and sometimes downright broken.

I mean, who the FUCK puts the filesystem root in a submenu? Or sorts files and directories together? I just want to talk and explain why they’re beyond salvation.

I searched around for a bit, and apparently one could preload a library to replace the file dialog functions with an own, custom one, and I’d root for rofi (with a dmenu theme, kinda).

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).

Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word “Linux” in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.
