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.

I’m glad there’s a toggle, it seems like it would actually be useful here but I’d probably turn it off.
With that said, there’s a special place in hell for the multitudes of apps that have red notification dots all over the UI with no clear indicator as to what they’re about or how to clear them :D
Yeah, I hate those little dots and I inevitably jump through the hoops until I've clicked enough things to make them go away.
Hahaha, what a great way to start tuesday morning.
I think it's a great feature. I can now quickly find the thing I just installed in my menu.
Yeah. Plus they immediately got a reply from someone showing where you can turn it off in settings.
There is a setting, but I was equally annoyed that it is on by default.
Even more surprising - when I launched the new app miltiple times, it was still marked as new.
It's probably time based.
And this kind of thing isn't for the type of people who mess with settings. If this defaulted to off, then it would actually be useless.
I think it's still an interesting question whether this feature should be enabled by default (and most people seem to agree it should be).
Lol does that mean he should donate the second 100€
He said "I'll donate 100 EUR if you remove", so I think he may be obligated to donate every single time this option is disabled.
Funny little read there.
