  • Yeah. Am using Connect on my phone, which shows “comments to the same link” all in one view. That’s not quite right; would be better if it showed all of the posts that had the same link together too, but it’s a massive improvement.

    Not suggesting we should have Fark-style ‘only one post per link’, because that ended up having some, eh, niche blog takes on news articles, since you couldn’t post mainstream articles. But accumulating posts with the same link or same post together would be great.



  • Only has the functionality that you need, everything is obviously in its place. Runs incredibly quickly without using a lot of resources, and then gets out your way when you’re trying to do stuff. No settings hidden away because they might confuse novice users. No bullshit shoehorned in by managers.

    Apart from the ugly font rendering, this might be as good as the Windows UI ever got. WinNT looks the same and has almost incomparable stability improvements, but only if you’ve the right hardware to run it. WinXP starts the downhill slide with ‘appearance over functionality’ and the hot mess of the control panel.

    I could live with how OP has things set up here; my own copy of Plasma doesn’t look a million miles from this.
