software engineer, team lead, and manager at Red Hat for more than 20 years.

Please keep this man away from ui/ux. Nerds designing UI is how libre office got in this mess in the first place.

He is not designing the UI, he will be implementing it.

The UI and UX will stay bad as it is, just on a modern technology stack.

Nerds are the reason computers even exist. Maybe you need to leave the internet You muscle-brained jock. Go take your protein-shake.

More importantly who are your low-IQ monkey friends that gave you likes ?

Ok? They can stick to building computers and people who actually use the computers can work on their usabilities. Nerds dont need ui they can use the terminal.

'Nerds should stick to building computers' but not the software computers are running is honestly one of the more harebrained takes I've read.
