    Enlightenment user here. The devs are not kidding, I can confirm there is a roughly 200% improvement when segfaulting.

    In E17 when it recovered from a crash all the minimized windows would un-minimize, most would move to the first desktop, and a few others would somehow go to random desktops. In E18 all the windows go back to their original desktop and conserve their iconified status. An E18 segfault doesn't really interrupt your workflow in any meaningful way, it's quite pleasant.

    Aren't desktop computers basically dying ? They keep on trying to replicate something that users already no longer use. Pretty sad

    Edit: even the captcha agrees with me: sadists

    You don't have a job, do you?

    Because, you know, not everybody makes a living browsing the Facebook using a tablet...
