Musescore is a Linux application which allows you to display a splashscreen and crash on segfault.

2026 ready. Enshittification compliant. Failure as the de facto industry standard, unwritten norm.

I don't understand why so few people are using Linux. It's so amazing! For example for just 740 MB of your hard disk space, you can have the astronomical program Stellarium, which displays a blank screen and doesn't react to clicking anywhere.

@sutaio Opravená verze textu po 1/2 dni hledání v poznámkách jak se opraví vadná khmérská klávesnice v Linuxu (úplně skělá UX!)

បាទល្អជាងពេលដែលខ្ញុំសរសេរជាភាសាខ្មែរ គេនឹងដឹងថាមួយណាបោះចោល។

@sutaio IMO the user experience (UX) of Linux is absolutely horrible.

If your Khmer keyboard doesn't work on Linux and inputs nonsense characters instead of compound vowels like ោះ ុំ in words like ខ្ញុំ បោះ , add GTK_IM_MODULE=xim into /etc/environment and logout/login from X.Fixed for me both in RPi OS (Debian) and EndeavourOS (Arch).

I had to painstakingly search through 224 photos of 5 years old paper notes to find the proper Linux workaround to figure this out again after I was forced to reinstall due to Raspberry Pi OS not officially supporting major version upgrade and serious Linux kernel bugs like Copy Fail and Dirty Frag.

It's not obvious from the problem that this should be done. Why not ship Linux with properly working Khmer keyboard in the first place?
