I didn't even know this bug was even open until it was marked as
expired.

Honestly Paul, there is a difference *BIG* between not having the
capacity and just not caring. Every release of Ubuntu Gnome that I've
used from 13.10 to 16.04(and 18.04) has been full of bugs that never get
fixed even if the bug is fixed upstream. This feels like your just
trying to get rid of bugs that canonical or the developers behind Ubuntu
Gnome couldn't be bothered to fix.

About 6 months I waited for fixes to the 12(?) or so bugs that I
reported and some of the bugs were pretty serious like the
shutdown/restart dialog box. Years later now and the bugs that are still
open haven't been resolved. Easily 80% of the updates that were sent out
were security patches in that time... I know this because I was reading
the changelog whenever I ran updates.

And things clearly haven't gotten better. I installed Ubuntu 18.04 on a
secondary computer and the dock/launcher showed up and was usable on the
lock screen. Like, people really wonder why the 'Year of the Linux
Desktop" hasn't happened yet? Christ, stop drinking the Richard Stallman
coolaid and wake up. 16.04 and 18.04 are LTS releases that are
recommended by people who claim it to be the "perfect" Windows
alternative. God have mercy on your souls if somehow Linux's marketshare
actually becomes something notable and the quality is still this
horrible.

To make a comment now on this two year old bug and claiming you don't
have the capacity just comes off as disingenuous, you realize right?
Asking me if this bug still affects me is like asking if I still have a
cold or the flu two years later from telling people I have it. I don't
even use Ubuntu anymore because not even the most basic of quality
testing is ever done to prevent the bugs from happening in the first
place or to backport the fixes from upstream. I have no way to verify if
it's fixed or not besides somehow hunting down that specific chromium
build with Ubuntu installed. Even then I have a different computer so
who knows if it'll even happen again?


If you want to fix a bug then you can fix the graphical corruption bug that 
I've also reported 2 years ago. It also affects Antergos(Arch Linux) and 
happens on even Intel graphics. I'm not going to play the "Lets blame 
proprietary companies for our buggy ass code" game though that people in the 
Linux world like to play... I just won't do my part to help get it fixed. I'm 
not playing your stupid games when the bug is *clearly* a problem with the Xorg 
server or whatever prelocates GPU memory for the windows/desktop.


If you aren't going to do that much then please just close all of the bugs that 
are still open and don't open them anymore. I've tried to help make Ubuntu 
better by submitting these bug reports and communicating via mailing lists and 
it was all just a waste of time. Please atleast have the decency to not waste 
any more.
