@hacknorris @jlow
use their support board,
https://ask.libreoffice.org/ , it's the first link on their site, people there are extremely helpful.

If you run into a bug please, PLEASE report it, all the time I hear people complain about bugs that most of us have never run into and can't replicate, people can't fix what they don't know is a problem.

@jlow @hacknorris yeah, and lets touch on libreoffice, it has no community support? Huh? It has an active support community linked right on the main page at "ask libreoffice" that has an average turnaround on questions of around 15 minutes.

And unlike microsoft's excel that seems more intent on stripping features and tying it to sharepoint than fixing 25+ year old reported bugs at least things work consistently and get fixed...(have to use it for work, the date bug still regularly bites me...)

@Gladaed @popcar2 because every bloated 100gb game is a mix of a thousand different assets/executables/libraries where the developer thought "why optimize, 100MB is nothing".

Often with little more than symbol stripping, removing unneeded files, and basic lz compression you can cut most game sizes in half, reduce load times, and free up terabytes of space on your system.

@gamerbro83 @toAIC pretty sure someone just saw the opportunity to run a donations scam (mirror for a few months, maybe change the default theme while taking donations). Seems to be the thing to do for that crowd (cause drama, scam others based off the drama)

@tabular @FizzyOrange would hardly even call blocking people for saying, mind you in a thread literally only asking people to post their inclusive games, that they are going to post the most offensive, racist things they can find (their words, not mine)..."thin skinned"

the nazi bar sure can twist a narrative though :/

@nichtburningturtle @mr_MADAFAKA confirmed, the full git history up to yesterday is preserved and already mirrored all over, so it's all good 👍

@nichtburningturtle @mr_MADAFAKA not sure, there's already like 500 forks up, may the one with the coolest name win.

it's in the repo for basically any linux distribution too so the source and executables are mirrored on literally thousands of servers and easily downloadable, so absolute worst case scenario it's version froze at 1.1.1388 for the time being.

all that happened to yuzu is a slight name change so i don't expect much more here.

@csolisr @kdenlive @kde they're still by far the most common subtitle format
