Why not just give it away for free? It always seems odd to me that games just disappear rather than being allowed an elegant death of old age.

Is that your experience with the OS or cosmic?

Honestly, it's not as important. These projects are working with very limited resources, typically dependent on free labour. Accessibility is incredibly hard to get right and half arsing it isn't going to work. The priority should be pushing out a reliable, working prototype that people want to use. Once that's accomplished you can refocus on expanding the features.

Demand for reliable multi monitor support is going to be far higher than screen reading capabilities.

But their issue isn't the old website. They're complaining about the new version?

Oh, for sure in London or any other dense area where public transport is abundant, and taxis run 24/7 there is no need for cars.

Nah, if you leave people on waiting lists they give up, turn to private options or just die, so it's no longer your problem. That's the cost saving approach the NHS uses for mental health services.

I get what you mean but I find anti car rhetoric way too overdone.

Given the topic is about health issues there's going to be a lot of people who have limited mobility so cycling isn't viable and walking may only be short distances. Therefore a car provides them freedom they need.

OP also felt the need to refer to the platform as Microsoft GitHub. So it seems likely this is all just grumbling about evil corp making changes

There seems to be a rando paragraph about AI as well,then it trails off that they're looking for recommendations for git blame clients. I couldn't really figure out how it was all GitHub's fault or where the word legacy fits in.

I kinda got bored halfway through. From what I gather they're salty that GitHub is switching to react? If that's the issue then the headline is rather misleading isn't it?

Surely legacy software is one that drifts into obscurity through lack of investment which is the polar opposite of GitHub rewriting their entire front end..

A few IDEs already provide some help with YAML. Rider will tell you if you've screwed up the YAML for a GitHub Actions workflow, and possibly docker-compose as well

I actually quite like this idea.

You can take it a step further and use file extensions to determine the format. For example the parser would first search for title, and if it doesn't exist try title.md title.html etc and render the content appropriately.
