I’m curious how software can be created and evolve over time. I’m afraid that at some point, we’ll realize there are issues with the software we’re using that can only be remedied by massive changes or a complete rewrite.
Are there any instances of this happening? Where something is designed with a flaw that doesn’t get realized until much later, necessitating scrapping the whole thing and starting from scratch?
I see, maybe I misinterpreted your previous comment. Anyway, I think if you’re using KDE on your desktop or laptop and your audio is working in most applications, you probably have either pipewire or pulseaudio installed. I would be very confused otherwise :D
Ok, so here’s why I’m confused: I did finally find them both through searching the entire computer’s files/folders. It’s definitely there and installed. But when I try to locate it through Discover Software Center, it’s nowhere to be found, even to install. I know not everything can be found through Discover, but I would think that something so essential would show up. Hell, every last font I have installed on it comes up, so it’s pretty surprising to me that this wouldn’t. I haven’t really gotten into messing with drivers (especially since everything has worked ootb), so I don’t know if those are something to get from DSC or what. And no worries, I’m glad for the discussion because it’s helping me learn and understand the Wonderful World of Linux™️ better!
