  • Don't get baited into back-and-forth insults. We are not animals.
  • Leave remarks of "peasantry" to the PCMR community. If you dislike an OS/service/application, attack the thing you dislike, not the individuals who use it. Some people may not have a choice.
  • Bigotry will not be tolerated.
  • 3. Post Linux-related content
  • Including Unix and BSD.
  • Non-Linux content is acceptable as long as it makes a reference to Linux. For example, the poorly made mockery of sudo in Windows.
  • No porn, no politics, no trolling or ragebaiting.
  • 4. No recent reposts
  • Everybody uses Arch btw, can't quit Vim, <loves/tolerates/hates> systemd, and wants to interject for a moment. You can stop now.

    When are language models gonna be able to help there - a couple are doing such a good job regurgitating aesthetically acceptable draft web designs (stolen though they may be). They even figure out some logic along the way.

    Anybody know of any existing LLM-driven UX enhancement plans on any open-source projects?

    thats more a lack of people to do the things we need to be done problem, than some secret formula of how to make good UX.

    LLMs won't help here, we need an attitude shift away from excusing GIMP just because its FOSS, and the money/manpower to execute it.

    if the good folks at Blender did it, we can do it too if we really wanted to.

    I need to find an open source project with poor UX and high personal utility (e.g. in a space I’m comfortable in). I could help!

    I will say something I enjoy quite a bit is dictating long rambling monologues to a nearly flawless machine transcription system. Then I make multiple language models try to mock up and wireframe my ideas. They might be mostly or totally non-functional, but still communicate my vision very clearly & effectively.

    go after such a project. a lot of the bigger ones can very much use designers, and are sometimes actively looking for contributors. this type of manpower is rare to see in the foss world.

    onboarding is sadly not that good most of the time, though.
