It's not a nagging. Here we have an intentional option damage and instead of
revise your dev's deeds you are blaming the users in nagging? There was not a
single problem with the Autostart page at first place. Your dev came here and
created the problem by removing a very useful option without a single reason.
All we want is the removed option back. In other words, the guilty dev to
repair the damege he did. Nothing more.

Nick, please read
https://jacobtomlinson.dev/posts/2022/dont-be-that-open-source-user-dont-be-me.

TL;DR: comments like these are not effective. They *reduce* developers'
motivation to work on the feature request. If you want to see this get done and
you can't contribute with code or money, please at least avoid leaving entitled
nagging comments.

All such future comments will be marked as spam and hidden by default, so you
might as well not leave them in the first place. Thanks in advance for your
cooperation.

I think you've misunderstood something fundamental about both bugs. The way
that system-level autostarts are controlled, is by copying them into the
user-specific autostart folder and then setting them to disabled.

In other words, for one to be implemented, you have to implement both. Or
rather, if you fix *this* bug, both bugs become fixed automatically. That's why
so many people were upset about this change, because it used to be possible to
control system-level autostart entries with the GUI (once they're copied over
to the user's home directory), but that is no longer possible because of your
change.

The open merge request needs for the submitter to continue work on it. At this
point is seems like there is a path forward, and the work just needs to be
completed. I've pinged the submitter. Hopefully they can continue the work.

I don't think it's a good idea to be hostile toward the developer responsible,
especially since they're also the one assigned to fix this bug. Don't give them
more reasons to want to avoid working on it or having anything to do with it.

That said, I know that the dev made this choice deliberately, and I'm not sure
why they're also assigned to change it. That's a conflict of interest (albeit a
relatively minor one) - they might just want the change to persist, even though
everyone else doesn't want it to persist, so all they have to do to get their
way is to literally do nothing.

Perhaps someone else should be assigned to fix this bug?

Since [Xuetian Weng's merge request][mr] would indirectly fix this, maybe have
him assigned to this bug report.

This might be considered another bug, but another issue with this redesign is
that the 'remove' button only appears when you hover the mouse over it. So when
you're removing a bunch of them at once, you can't keep your mouse still and
keep clicking, as the 'hover' event doesn't seem to fire until you've clicked
once or jitter the mouse a bit.

I don't see any reason for the buttons to hide themselves. It's not friendly
for touch screens, as you don't know where to touch. It's not friendly for
mice, as you don't know where to hover your mouse until you try to. When you do
hover over an entry, it looks weird for only one of them to have a button and
the rest not to.

The fact that they highlight when you hover, and then change color when you
click, makes it seem like SOMEthing should happen when you click... But nothing
does. Clicking an entry does not result in any action being performed. You
can't even select them, as they're not selectable items.



It might be my headache talking (not related to this; I've had this headache
for a while), or I might just be resistant to change. I'm sorry if I sound
overly harsh, I really don't mean to.

I just don't understand the purpose behind the redesign, and every time I look
at any of it to see if there's a tiny bit of, "Oh, well at least that's nicer
than before," I just find more things I disagree with (or perhaps am just not
used to? Like I say, I maybe the headache is talking).

There's another feature that is missing as a result of this feature missing:
disabling a startup service on a per-user basis instead of on a system-wide
basis.

In the past, I have always copied all the entries in /etc/xdg/autostart/ to
~/.config/autostart/, so that I could override whether they were enabled or
disabled - as setting whether they were enabled/disabled in the file stored in
the home directory overrode the file in /etc/. This let me enable/disable
autostart entries without affecting global system files.

IF ANYTHING, I would have opted for this configuration page to detect system
autostart entries, and disabling them would make a copy in the user's
~/.config/autostart directory with it disabled. This would be more ideal than
having to copy the files myself.. And bringing back the previous functionality
would AT LEAST make it easier than Editing The Files Myself.

I know that Nicolas Fella worked hard on this, and made the change
intentionally. But when even GNOME and MacOS (supposedly, according to others
in here) has a feature and you're removing it from KDE of all places, you need
to rethink your objectives for a user interface. I would never expect this type
of feature removal to happen in KDE.
