@iron_bug @safiuddinkhan@fosstodon.org Did the actually remove anything? I was pretty sure that's how GTK-based applications work when running in GNOME environment: menu bar on top of the screen, like in Mac OS X, but when run outside GNOME it's just a normal menu bar, top of the window. Is it not?
@iron_bug @safiuddinkhan@fosstodon.org Yes, this was abstraction for abstraction's sake. First it was just a bunch of XML-files with weird names inside an organized directory structure. Aside from the fact that XML is not THAT human readable it was not that bad. But it turned into a shitshow pretty soon.
The most odd thing of it is that in Mac OS X, where they drew inspiration from, it wasn't that bad: XML files really worked there, were readable and had sane utilities, and launchd was not as bad as systemd.
