The leading theory over this seems to be they’re trying to invalidate a bunch of international/national agreements about the gulf of Mexico because now “that doesn’t exist”, or is not about this gulf that has a different name so definitely not the one from agreement. And of course there’s also things about doing everything at once and getting people distracted by these while sneaking in harmful policies.
This is indeed common in countries that have been “westernized”, in many cases people learn in English since very small age in school because people thought/think knowing English means better career prospects and prefer admitting people to schools that do all English. But in many cases they don’t actually have native English speaking people to teach, so they just end up learning their own version of English, written English will be good, not spoken. And for their native language they’ll know oral language but will be worse at written one. And people that studied in non-english schools will at least know their language better in written form, but depending on their career path (for example all higher level education in science is English) it might change.
And in many cases they have a native language that’s not taught at school at all, and considering the past literacy rate, most of their parents don’t know how to write in their own language at all. So they’ll have to learn the most common language of the country and English (2nd and 3rd language), either type of school they goto, they’ll never understand written form of their native language.
I see the dev don’t want recommendation algorithm. All good to avoid the recommendation bubble, but a category/tags might be nice instead of random everything.
My understanding is this:
It’s just the principle of AUR wrappers. Yes they are very useful, but anyone and their uncle can put a package in AUR name it whatever they want as long as it’s not taken. AUR wrapper makes it easier to install things without knowing much, but manually searching for something, finding it, and installing it involves conscious choices. Arch cannot be responsible for people installing malware from a software they recommended, that’s why it’s kept this way intensionally.
Imagine if yay/paru came with the os, or could be installed from pacman, then people would just recommend doing that to new users and then they might just install whatever and break the system a lot more.
Yeah, I could only find one that works on kde plasma with Wayland, but it doesn’t even have a tab key. Does anyone know how hard it is to make/modify one?
