Hey guys, I'm just an ordinary dev looking for something to work on. While messing around with my hobby projects, I couldn't help but notice that under the surface, there are a lot of places that the libre desktop can be improved. I'd like to take on your suggestions on what I should seriously consider working on and helping out with.

Thanks for any comments and suggestions.

(For those wondering, I'm still working on my other stuff.)

I actually have the same trackpad problem on a Windows 10 2-in-1. Seems it's not unique to Linux.

Wait, really? What device are you using? I'm using a first gen thinkpad helix

I have to assume its due to similar but different reasons, thats genuinely super interesting. Though I guess its possible its genuinely just a hardware thing...

Second-hand Dell Latitude 5285. Not sure if it's a hardware failure issue from age, or if kernels actually had problems supporting it.

It's probably unrelated, but your comment reminded me of this since it's the only time I've encountered it.
