  • IDM only does direct downloads, or taking over downloads after waiting the timers or clicking the download button.

    You can just give the download URL to JDownloader2, either direct or on a file host, and it will do the job. It supports many file hosts, which may be dealt differently from one to the other, such as needing timeouts, donwloading from folders, handling passwords (it would ask you for it), solving CAPTCHAs (it would also ask you for it), and so much more. Everything would be dealt and you get the file just from the URL you gave it. It’s a versatile tool.

    CLI (or Linux) users when they found out not everyone uses CLI (they dislike using GUI)

    No offence, but I also use SmartGit beside your ol’ Git (you should tell them, GUI for Git exists). I know enough how Git works and knows how to do it in the command prompt, but my workflow would be easier when I use the GUI. It’s fine for me.

    Anyways, creating a branch and merging it is simple.

    git branch patch-1
    git checkout patch-1
    echo "Test file" > test.txt
    git add .
    git commit -m "Add test file"
    git checkout master
    git merge patch-1
    

  • I hate open source devs who are whining about not being paid or something.

    They should learn that by releasing it on an open license, anyone can use it freely. The devs have no obligation on maintaining it. Don’t like it? Step down, announce and archive it, and everyone can wait for a fork or a replacement. Simple as that.

    When they whine about their tool is being used on a commercial software, or they don’t get paid, or something else, I don’t think you are prepared enough to make your software open. I get it, they are worth a pay, but, to be put bluntly, no companies/individuals are obligated to pay you, just like no developer is obligated to maintain their code.
