I thought you were being facetious calling the admin, Δεῖμος. Like implying the Tilde admin rules with such an iron first he instills god-like levels of dread in users. And then I discover the admin's username is indeed Deimos 😅
But if the program isn't restarted then it could become unstable or crash. You shouldn't really have any software running while doing updates anyway. I browse the web knowing that I'll need to restart Firefox so I never do anything of import while waiting.
Thanks for helping. I've already tried putting the blur all the way down (and fiddling with the noise, no idea what it does either) - the screenshots in my post are both with blur at 0 :( Also means my logout screen isn't blurred properly and the icons are harder to see over the background.
My panel opacity is set to "Adaptive" so that it turns opaque with maximised windows. Even if I set it to be "Translucent", it's looks the same as it is in my screenshots.
I tried that. Unfortunately it doesn't play nice with adaptive transparency and makes the panel transparent all the time, so even when a window is maximised its still transparent. 😞
Huh, I was just thinking the exact same thing. Seems kinda cynical but then I remember I fucking Facebook and that's not a cynical idea, but rather a very plausible one.
If this is indeed new and not from 2021,I'm waiting for Reddit to implement about 10% of it badly and then make promises about the rest for another 5+ years.
I was confused with the section showing awards when an email just went out saying Reddit are ditching awards. But if this is indeed from two years ago, that would make sense.
Reminds me of someone I knew who had a cat that would repeatedly and randomly just turn up in their house and be all like, I live here, you're my humans. They would post photos of the cat with nothing but the hashtag #notourcat but I ALWAYS read it as No Tour Cat. Was it like a musician cat that could never get any tours? Confused the hell out of me until I got the backstory NOT OUR CAT. 😅😹
