No, not that one. But I guess there are multiple angles, dark mode overall has been pretty rough.

The one that gets in my way the most is their already spotty xlsx conversion seems to parse Office’s default font color as black instead of automatic, which means when you open Excel docs on LibreOffice you get black text on black background by default.

You can just select all and manually change the text color, but it’s a pain, and on spreadsheets you have to do it on each spreadsheet page. From what I’ve seen there have been bugs opened and reclosed with “you should set the text to automatic”, which is engineer excuses for what is obviously a genuine issue with the defaults of document conversion, as far as I can tell.

Is dark mode no longer busted?

I guess I’ll find out.

Americans elected a fascist, extremist president and corporations cozying up to power are moving towards fascism and extremism to cozy up to power.

I am experiencing the least amount of shock possible.

Now, if Americans owned the monumental fuckup, that would be a surprise.

Yes it is.

For the end user, if one platform has driver support and the other one doesn’t, then one platform works and the other one does not.

“It’s not my bug” is a thing engineers get to say to close issues on their backlog, but it doesn’t magically fix the problem for the end user if the other side says the same thing (or doesn’t care).

If you want people to use Linux, then Linux has to work, and that includes the third party drivers.
