@mcc That feature isn't enabled by default though.

@raptor85 @sos @kkolakowski CMake is a leaky abstraction with awful DSL, and my 12yo cmake scripts are a pile of incredible mess riddled with technical debt, but it still does its job well enough that I could just point my projects to stuff like devkitpro, vitasdk, osxcross, Emscripten, Flatpak or Steam Runtime and focus on actual porting rather than fighting with build recipes.

@sos @raptor85 @kkolakowski To do actual work, we have proper IDEs that can handle such exotic and rarely-seen things as CMake projects (/s) natively 😂

@sos @kkolakowski Is it though? All I can see here is you trying to use a tool blindly without understanding what it's for :P
It's a build solution generator, and VS project files are merely one of the kinds of outputs it does (alongside Ninja, Make, Xcode and plenty of some obscure ones too). Generated files are just intermediate build artifacts - you use them to build, they're not for human consumption nor for editing.
It's simply an abstraction on top of various incompatible build systems.

@kkolakowski @sos It's a much better idea than having to maintain a myriad of separate build scripts for each platform and having to deal with stuff like Visual Studio or Xcode directly. CMake isn't a particularly beautiful implementation of that idea, but any other sane build system works the same way.

@krosylight Not in gaming mode at least. It may make sense when used with nested kwin_wayland for example (which is how I usually run Plasma on my Deck), but it's useless when used directly under gamescope.

You could run gamescope with `--expose-wayland` parameter, but even then it will only work with very simple apps; definitely not with Firefox 😅

@krosylight Which part of "everyone" is ambiguous? 😜 Yes, mine too.

@krosylight Everyone's say X11 and always did.

@krosylight Gamescope doesn't really handle Wayland (xdg-shell) clients. It has some very basic support, but not nearly enough to handle apps like Firefox, so it all goes through X11 over XWayland.

@cassidy @flathub Wow, the 35 character limit for sum---maries is extreme in English already, and it's not the most verbose language out there 🙈

"---" denotes the 35th character mark 😭

@flathub Ah, the communication was pretty much non-existent and left me confused for hours. I've noticed that the CI publish job has failed and didn't really know why until I dug into logs of earlier jobs (that were marked as successful), searched the error message from there on the Web and then stumbled upon https://github.com/flathub/flathub/issues/4687 which made me look at the website.

Apparently there should have been an e-mail - I haven't got any though. The takeaway: "don't touch permissions when not needed" 😂

Looks like Flathub has just punished me for removing an unnecessary permission from the app I published by putting the update into moderation queue 😅 The queue itself is a welcome new addition to the infra, but perhaps it still needs some adjustments regarding the incentives it offers to the developers 😜 https://docs.flathub.org/blog/improved-build-validation/ @flathub #flatpak #flathub

@cas @craftyguy Can't decide between "It's awesome, I hate it" and "It's awful, I love it" 🤔

@FediFollows Don't forget about @phosh
