  • I find this to either be a lie or self inflicted.

    “I’ve never experienced what you describe, so it must be either imagined or your own fault.”

    I’ve seen this nonsense over and over again in communities of all kinds, most often in tech forums (where there are always a few participants suffering from a big-fish-little-pond effect). It’s a very rude and foolish bit of human behavior.

    There are more things in heaven and earth, Horatio, than are dreamt of in your philosophy.








  • Linux user here. I don’t know of an open desktop calendar app that supports the protocol I need (CalDAV) without being one or more of:

    • Bloated
    • Too simplistic to be useful
    • Too annoying to use (poor UI)

    The best compromise I’ve found so far is Thunderbird. It is bloated, but less so than any Electron app I’ve used. I find the UI annoying, but tolerable for lack of a better option. I’m thankful for an open, cross-platform tool that gets the job done, but I wish I had one that was lightweight and pleasant to use.

    It would be nice to see some new work in this area. It’s a similar situation with email apps.

    Lemmy tip: Don’t indent your paragraphs.

    We’re writing in Markdown here, so 4+ spaces at the beginning of a line triggers code formatting. It breaks line wrapping, so many readers are forced into a lot of horizontal scrolling back and forth if they want to read your text. It sometimes also breaks color schemes, burning dark-mode readers’ eyes with blocks of bright white.

    Back to your request…

    Your description reminds me of bits of Cyberpunk 2077 and Overwatch, but I don’t think it’s either of those. It doesn’t exactly match any games I can think of right now. Good luck. :)
