> It's the best idea that works for me in my current environment. works-for-me is a good starting point but the hard part is to make sure that it keeps working for others too (platform apps etc). We try to avoid merging things to master and stabilize them later - ideally problems are found and solved before that as part of the review. > Nor is it in this PR: extra automatic options are added before default options Its more than one option and they are not independent. How would the user know that two options would have to be overwritten when a certain screen is plugged in because of launcher magic? The risk of adding too much magic is that it becomes no longer predictable from the outside. There are solutions for that of course, another flag could be added which disables auto configuration - or things are kept simple. > This PR stops exporting GDK_SCALE. I saw. Thats why I mentioned this would be something we should consider doing for NB 28 assuming form designer previews etc still work as expected. There might have been a reason why it was originally implemented via the exported env var instead of a JVM property. > I would sooner switch to a competing IDE where this works today rather than continue to discuss this with maintainers who clearly do not want to improve the user experience. :) originally I wanted to stay out of this discussion since I had the feeling this will end in drama. But I have to say that someone announcing to switch IDEs via a PR and mailing list is a super weird thing to do esp when dealing with free/community maintained projects. (its also extra funny to someone like me who uses multiple IDEs and switches based on project/customer, sometimes several times a day) _switching to zed as protest_ -- This is an automated message from the Apache Git Service.
