"X violates the fundamental spirit of Y but at least it lets you copy its data to Z to handle it the old way" is not a reason to implement X.
Remiiiiind you of anything??
*cough*beta*cough* Still interested to see how long they wait in the hopes we cool down before they roll it out anyway.

Self-defeating trolls. Huh.
I actually did a "which systemd" on my current Mint XFCE install--which has GIMP installed and up-to-date--and got only silence.
Um...I know apt-get isn't shy about installing all kinds of dependencies when I need them...wat.
If you're talking about Deb & Ian, they apparently got a divorce in 2008 and Ian stepped down from project leader in 1996 anyway.
Then you run into the problem of verifying age to keep *actual* pedophile predators out...which means you need Real ID.
Maybe the answer is this thing we used to have called Real Life instead of communicating with their friends online.
This "third" option is really just the 2nd option.
While I sympathize with your sentiment, wouldn't that mean that free speech societies exist nowhere on earth? I would imagine every jurisdiction at least has a "fire in a crowded theater" clause. In which case, arguing one toe over the line disqualifies it as free speech means that free speech itself doesn't exist as a concept.
It's the same problem as "no true communism has ever existed." Maybe technically true, but just makes conversation more difficult.
If there's one thing I would really like to believe in, it's radically free speech. But as I get older, I have a harder and harder time finding things that I can label with absolutes.
why shouldn't I be liable for wrongdoing of my kid in cyberspace?
People's crazy-loose definition of what constitutes wrongdoing online.
"OtherOS would be OtherOS all over again"
No!?!
Yeah, and there are plenty of things people stick in there that are labelled as not-bugs by the developers.
It's the PS3 OtherOS all over again. If they didn't have the feature in the first place, fine; but having it and then removing it smells bad.
To quote Ben Goodger's comment: "Thanks for all of your feedback on this bug. We've heard you loud and clear. We plan to re-enable ext2/3/4 support in Files.app immediately. It will come back, just like it was before, and we're working to get it into the next stable channel release."
It's not a bug unless it was an accident.
Somebody and Anybody are on trains headed towards each other at 20mph (each). Construct a boolean algebra equation to describe all actors.
Or like how that studio told Peter Jackson they didn't have to pay him more than a pittance because Lord of the Rings "didn't turn a profit."
Unethical weasel bastards.
