My list:

  • A privacy respecting Dating platform.
  • A good 2D CAD program capable of dealing with DWG files.

Please don’t post a huge list of games. That would belong in another post. since there are many good ones already.

    “beautiful” software

    I really hate this argument. Beautiful has become a synonym with simple and simple is an anti-pattern in software. These programs are great for house moms but they’re quite useless for advanced users. Why would you want a program that you use exact the same way after a year of daily usage?

        Yes but the implication is that “complex” is ugly, especially when you mention elementaryOS. You could have probably said “good looking” instead which is really up personal preference, isn’t it?

      The default customisation for any software must never require any user to be advanced user in any sense of the word. Advanced users can find their preferred customisations themselves.

        Customization is irrelevant. When you sit down to play a piano you don’t expect to compose songs immediately. With software users expectations should be the same - start with a tutorial and work your way up.

        We ruined our user culture - now everyone expects a self driving tricycle and that’s why our software never performs like a bicycle.
