On Linux ... I was looking at the Unity tray icon code I submitted a while back and it had stopped working on my desktop environment. I was also looking for a way to track user log off events, monitor clipboard history, and how to register a global hot key.
The sheer scattering of different systems, libraries, and what not that I needed to search through to find solutions which are typically as simple as a single function on a single document site with Windows prompted me to write this brief diatribe: The Problem with the Linux Desktop <https://www.getlazarus.org/linux-vs-windows/> <https://www.getlazarus.org/linux-vs-windows/> I also posted that page to the r/linux <https://www.reddit.com/r/linux/comments/fpt3ib/the_problem_with_the_linux_desktop/?>, and am likely to get down voted there, but if anyone wants to chime in, feel free. It might make use both feel better.
