[05:53] IsambardPrince They wrote a horrible shell largely in Javascript that bloats and leaks memory like a son of a bitch. [05:55] IsambardPrince They said one reason they used JavaScript was to have an easy extension system. Then they turned out to have a highly unstable interface where either the extensions stop working quickly (often within a single release) if they aren't constantly maintained, or else they will appear to load and work, and then crash the Shell, sometimes preventing the Shell from loading at all. [05:55] IsambardPrince They extensions are structurally a monkey patch. [05:58] IsambardPrince Undoubtedly what will happen is you'll install some and then it will stop you from cleanly upgrading GNOME until you uninstall them. I've upgraded GNOME without uninstalling them before and it resulted in them still being listed as installed, but with no way to remove them. The extensions site is so flaky it cannot reliably remove broken extensions, or even extensions that you just installed a few minutes ago. ● Oct 22 [06:19] TR News Techrights Intercontinental Brigading - Part XI - Losing Over a Million Pounds (Borrowed Money) to Try to Silence Critics of Restricted Boot With Microsoft-Controlled "Certificates" https://techrights.org/n/2026/10/22/Intercontinental_Brigading_Part_XI_Losing_Over_a_Million_Pounds.shtml | Gemini address: gemini://gemini.techrights.org/n/2026/10/22/Intercontinental_Brigading_Part_XI_Losing_Over_a_Million_Pounds.gmi [06:19] TR Bot Techrights Intercontinental Brigading - Part XI - Losing Over a Million Pounds (Borrowed Money) to Try to Silence Critics of Restricted Boot With Microsoft-Controlled "Certificates" [06:19] TR News Techrights Linux Kernel Needs Diversity and Diversity of Good Code, Not LLM Slop https://techrights.org/n/2026/10/22/Linux_Kernel_Needs_Diversity_and_Diversity_of_Good_Code_Not_LLM.shtml | Gemini address: gemini://gemini.techrights.org/n/2026/10/22/Linux_Kernel_Needs_Diversity_and_Diversity_of_Good_Code_Not_LLM.gmi [06:19] TR Bot Techrights Linux Kernel Needs Diversity and Diversity of Good Code, Not LLM Slop [06:25] TR News "Lets brace ourselves - Lets all brace ourselves from select cheerleading IBMers bragging about our 3Q 26 results on LinkedIn.
