Xfce isn't based on GNOME at all and Cinnamon is based on modern GNOME, not GNOME 2. Mate is based on GNOME 2, tho. All of them are very different from modern GNOME, tho.

Personally, it was precisely the fact that it didn't show the equation, so this fix makes me extremely happy.
So just to clarify, there's no way to support the DualShock 3 without introducing a security hole? Or is the security hole only a problem with the current driver which could eventually be fixed, rather than something inherent to the device? Also, is there a list of affected devices outside the DualShock 3? Will the Wiimote still work, for instance?
The DualShock is old, but I've always appreciated how I could have all of my gamepads just work on Linux, from the Wiimote to the DualSense. On Windows, most of them needed third party unofficial drivers to be installed and/or would be missing functionality, like motion controls or Bluetooth support. Would be a big shame if it just stopped working wirelessly. Still, I have a lot of significantly better gamepads by now, including a DualSense, so DualShock 3 support isn't something I really need anymore unless I have a lot of people over and need to connect a lot of controllers.
For what it's worth, glibc is very much performance-critical, so this shouldn't be a surprise. Any possible optimization is worth it.
There are a ton of free software libc implementations outside of glibc. I think most implementations of libc are free software at this point. There's Bionic, the BSD libcs, musl, the Haiku libc, the OpenSolaris/OpenIndiana libc, Newlib, relibc, the ToaruOS libc, the SerenityOS libc and a bunch more. Pretty sure Wine/ReactOS also have free implementations of the Windows libc.
I'm assuming you probably already know since you're making WineGUI, but older versions of Office (particularly Office 2010 32bit) are pretty simple to get working. Just need to install some dependencies with Winetricks.
gnome-look is just one of pling's many rebranded mirrors. KDE does also have one, but you might as well just use pling directly.
Actually, Swing has a GTK3 style, so it can integrate decently well. JavaFX however does not.
For KDE right click menus, you need to use service menus: https://develop.kde.org/docs/apps/dolphin/service-menus/
These are used by Plasma and most KDE apps that deal with files.
Krusader has a more powerful system for this called UserActions, but they're exclusive to Krusader and afaik Krusader is also compatible with service menus, so these are much less portable: https://docs.kde.org/trunk5/en/krusader/krusader/useractions.html
OP is complaining about dnf being too slow. I've heard zypper is even worse.
It doesn't install any optional dependencies, is the problem the user seems to have.
Any thoughts about doing the same for Canada, Trudeau?
