A nice place to discuss rumors, happenings, innovations, and challenges in the technology sphere. We also welcome discussions on the intersections of technology and society. If it’s technological news or discussion of technology, it probably belongs here.

Remember the overriding ethos on Beehaw: Be(e) Nice. Each user you encounter here is a person, and should be treated with kindness (even if they’re wrong, or use a Linux distro you don’t like). Personal attacks will not be tolerated.

I'll agree for those use cases, but not everyone is making icons, stickers and emoji.

They are using them, however. They're visiting websites with them, using apps with them, and so forth.

OK, and the kernel is written in C and assembly. Should they know both of those as well?

No, but it should still work. Getting rid of alpha channels would break all of that.
