I like Jetbrains pricing model in general. Basically you get a discount that increases each year based on how long you have been a customer, to the point where it caps out at I think 50% off.
Not sure if you have experimented with it yet but COSMIC is a DE made by System76 (creators of Pop!_OS) and manages to get pretty close to what I have been seeking, which is essentially MacOS with tiling. They basically gave up on GNOME and built it in Rust from scratch. Still a few major things like HDR missing but overall it's solid.
You get the tiling without the config that comes with Hyprland, with the added option of toggling between tiled or floating. Settings are minimal but they are slowly adding more when there is enough demand. IDE-style theming is done at system-level so that applications match.
Most manufacturers have restrictions on where retailers can sell their product for exactly this reason. The fact that Amazon is doing this is just going to result in a lot of unnecessary billable hours.
Another reason they do not allow it is because if something is popular Amazon will make their own private label version.
If they’re passing on my own address and payment details, are they _actually_ selling something they bought?
Using an agent of some sort to figure out where to put how to pass the payment information seems more than a little irresponsible too, maybe illegally so.
It's a double edged sword. With terminal sure, but not allowing interaction in Microsoft applications like Power BI (especially with no ability to copy and paste) renders Copilot completely useless.
I don't have that problem with Arch+COSMIC, which has the tiling you get with Hyprland but without the overly complex configuration. You can also switch to floating windows with one button if needed.
I can't even be bothered to dual boot into Windows to game anymore. Wiped my Windows drive over the weekend so that it could be used as a snapshot drive. If the game doesn't work on Steam on Linux I'm not interested - simple as that.
