It's not inevitable. It can be resisted. It takes a leader who can stand up to the pressure and say no. That's not a trivial thing. The pressure is considerable, especially these days.

> Well service depends on where you live.

Tell me about it. I have to drive about 100 miles to the nearest Audi dealership to get my Audi fixed. The nearest Tesla service center is 180 miles away. I really want a Tesla, but I'd pretty much have to do all of the servicing myself.

> Ten years from now no one will even remember or care that master/slave was a term in computing.

I don't think it will take them that long to regret this change. Now that everyone knows linux will just roll over, they'll push for greater changes to the "Code of Conduct." Then developers will get deplatformed at an alarming rate. And I'll have my popcorn ready. It'll be quite the show.

Did they ever fix that memory leak?

> Talking to other Mac users, this seems to be common knowledge - I guess only Windows users moving to OSX should be wary.

It's common knowledge because very single Mac OS X user has lost data due to this bug that Apple has refused to fix for years.

Because it actually works, most of the time. The controller isn't horrible. The commonly used apps, like Twitch, Youtube, Netflix, Amazon Prime, etc all work.

I got so fed up with my Samsung SmartTV and it's horrible controller and glitchy apps that I run my tv through an old laptop now.

I tried a FireTV stick for a bit. It's wasn't powerful enough to drive my 4k tv.

Sysadmins do.

It's not just Desktop OS's. Mobile, TV and Car OS's are mostly terrible as well. Are OS's really that hard to do well?

Have you tried any other TV OS? FireTV is the best of a bad bunch.

The gifs in the readme showing the functionality you want to highlight is a nice touch. I wish more projects did that.

Do you have any regrets with sticking with mercurial instead of hopping on the git bandwagon?
