  • Old isn’t necessarily bad, unless years of decision-making have left it in a massively complex state (see also: Xorg)

    The real reason here is that LibreOffice is written in C++, which is falling rapidly out of fashion for modern apps, leading to a smaller supply of developers.

    Contrast this with Onlyoffice. Yes, the document engine is still written in C++, however the build tools use more modern items like python and onlyoffice supports having Javascript frontends and scripting, making it easier to source web devs to work on these parts.




  • Maybe the article is not biased, maybe, just maybe, the tech deserves this huge backlash because it is trash and nobody asked for it, not even game devs, or whatever you call people who make games but their games are not in need for this tech

    If you can’t recognize bias in an obviously biased article, then your media literacy skills need work so that you can recognize different types of bias.

    Hell even the current popular LLM’s, which are glorified statistics chat bots, can see this pattern and identify heavily statistical traits of bias in this article.
