From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).

Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

A cure for colorblindness would be developed by the time gnome implements such a feature

Why are people so toxic? This is a KDE post, at least celebrate the work being done instead of bashing people for no reason

Good to know. I will say as a colorblind person, it's always a tad ironic because as a colorblind person, the filters don't make things definitive. It's still a bunch of random colors that I can't identify lol

What are your biggest pet peeves as a color blind person? In software, I mean.

Not colorblind, but my guess would be the colors.
