On: GNOME (et al): Rotting In Threes

[curiousdannii]

What's going on? Do the GNOME devs think they have a mandate to reduce the world's electricity consumption?

[chris_wot → curiousdannii]

It does appear to be the case.

What amazes me is with all their infrastructure and libraries was that they never made a word processor from their own framework.

AbiWord was fairly close to this, and I believe it was part of Gnome Office at one point (along with Gnumeric, which was a pretty good spreadsheet app for a while).

[ISL → jsight]

Amen. Gnumeric was my open-source spreadsheet of choice for a few years.
