Is there a slow software movement?

as in a pledge to ship only well-tested and polished software and only do it very occasionally instead of deploying slop multiple times a day that your users will have to ingest like a king's food taster

It is completely unfair to refer to Microsoft as Microslop, because that implies a small quantity of slop.

Pickup time. I'm waiting.

Here's to all the kids who were born with non-default settings; to all you who put the effort in to figure yourselves out.

You're amazing and deserve to be celebrated.

I'm glad you're here 💝

I feel like whoever is running the phishing op to scam fediverse people out of money may not be that great at their jobs

These are scams. There is no reward or payment schemes on Mastodon. No genuine admin would ever send this kind of post or reply.

When you install KDE software on a Thinkpad, it turns into a Kinkpad

You know, it's kinda goofy software is racing to "churn out endless code as fast as possible". When I feel like the goal would be "incredibly stable software you are only called up to fix periodically or commissioned to craft a new product for radically different needs". You'd think software devs would prefer to kick at the beach or cybercafe or whatever tech guys like doing and collecting royalties from their well made products they only have to periodically fix (with those moments growing ideal further apart).

Good morning
