I’m bored and want to practice my Rust skills. I am the creator of open-tv. If you have any idea for a linux desktop app, even if it seems quite complex, I will take it.

    “application”, not “app”. Please don’t let phone tech companies enshittify our language.

      Enshittify/enshittification must be the most overused and most incorrectly used buzzword going around at the moment. Even more so than “AI”.

      People shortening application to app is not enshittification.

      Application is a pretty cumbersome word, too. “Look for XYZ in your application store”, “Go to application view”, etc just doesn’t roll off the tongue as well.

      I was using the term “app” long before smartphones were a thing. That said, “program” was the more commonly-used term for me in the 90s.
