But he just likes to bitch about Linux and other FOSS. It's a very odd thing to complain about though. A ton of file types couldn't be opened before and suddenly they are, so DFS is unhappy about it. If there is an application he would prefer to use to open those formats, he is free to install it and then change the defaults to that application by going into those settings, finding the application and allowing it to manage all supported formats. He's grasping at straws at this point. -- Andrzej (Andre) Matuch Telegram: @AndrzejMatuch Zephyrus G14 GA401QM on Fedora 41 KDE supporting member
