From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).
Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

Is cheesecake a pie?
I vote yes
Agreed
npm? So this uses electron? I essentially run a stripped down browser to render a fucking OSD? I can't do that with good conscience.
npm means it's a JS app running on a JS runtime, which is roughly similar to what python does. Electron runs on top of the runtime and indeed provides some kind of stripped down browser.
But yeah, in this case the app does use electron :)
God truly is dead, and electron killed him
I wonder what's the difference between this and Fly Pie, like, why did he stop developing the first and started the latter.
He says so in the readme
I have been working on Fly-Pie for more than 3 years now and I am very happy with the result. However, I have always wanted to create a similar application for the desktop in general. This is why I started this project.

Has anyone here tried Kando yet? Looks like a very nice tool. How does it compare to typical keyboard shortcuts?
This project is currently in a very early stage of development. Kando is not yet a functional menu but rather a prototype which demonstrates the feasibility of the concept.
Since Kando is still in early development, it might be a good idea to look at the Gnome Extension Fly-Pie. It's from the same developer and it looks like Kando will be similar.
