@Naughtylus @musicmatze I would classify it as Psytrance. Wikipedia seems to agree ^^

@Naughtylus @musicmatze the "genre" row in the infobox on the right categorizes it so.But it doesn't really matter, does it.

@sir @spacekookie while outdated bundled dependencies are an inherent problem of all of those formats, at least in my experience, popular snap apps receive frequent updates, especially those that are official (e.g. VSCode, Inkscape, PyCharm - which are mentioned in the post).

@sir @spacekookie Also, snaps have the potential to alleviate this problem with auto-updates. In the end, it's up to the publisher to keep their stuff up-to-date.

@spacekookie @sir This may or may not be true, but what is the best authority to publish applications, then? Assuming I am an application author, what should I do to target a reasonably wide chunk of the desktop linux ecosystem?

@be @lightweight it's definitely hard to create good Qt bindings, though it's easier if you mainly want QML/QtQuick to talk with a backend in another language (which is what I do exclusively and which in my experience also fits many commercial needs). For example, there are really nice Rust bindings now (mainly for QML/QtQuick) which facilitate Rusts' built-in metaprogramming features (hygienic procedural macros) to replace MOC entirely: https://github.com/woboq/qmetaobject-rs

@be @lightweight GPL+Commercial though means I'm probably not going to use/contribute to it :/ LGPL+Commercial would be fine for a library for me.

@be @lightweight even for hobby projects - which is what I would use this for - I want some freedom to pick the FOSS license I distribute my project under. Hence, GPL for a library is a no-go for me.

@lightweight @be I respect your opinion on this matter. For the record, I don't dislike the GPL but I dislike not having the freedom of choice of distributing my project under the FOSS license I see fit.

@lightweight @be this is why I personally think GPL is a bad choice for libraries but a great choice for applications.

@bortzmeyer I tend to agree; it's not like they couldn't also encrypt or hide it (even in a picture or something).
