A second Linux developer has fallen

would you catch a falling knife, /g/?
or would you cleverly place a stake to impale him with?

>>106109040 (OP)
Man, that looks so unpolished. Even for libadwaitaslop.

Wtf is this UI? It's hard to even tell this is an antivirus, it should have a big SCAN menu.

>>106109040 (OP)
>antivirus
why cant people just use GNU Common Sense?

What is the point in an antivirus for Linux? Isn't basically no point in making malware with the amount of OSes available?

>>106109565
That's the real reason it failed.
People don't seek solutions for problems they don't think they have.

>>106109565
It might make sense if you have a Linux file server which serves Windows clients.

What does this do that clamav doesn't anyway?

>>106109565
It's not an antivirus. This is a front end for the antivirus. AKA useless

If it was a hobby project --- one solely made for your own benefit --- then you just ban that user from your repo and then move on lmao. Of people want to use your software, then they can, but that doesn't mean you have to interact with any of them.

Some guy who made a frontend for clamav isn't doing that any more. Who cares? It doesn't even need a frontend

This. It's the same shit with that schizo Duckstation developer, stenzek. No idea why these fucks can't just do their thing while not giving a shit.

>>106111893
Why can't Linux chuds just not be toxic for literally one second?

>>106109509
I'll bet he didn't even publish the source.

You're fucking retarded if you're just pulling down random AURs.
>[Wine has joined the chat]
How compatible is wine with most viruses? I'd imagine they don't put nearly the same effort into that.

>>106111915
YOU LITTLE SHIT. I'M NOT THE ONE OUT HERE ATTACKING DEVELOPERS AND MAINTAINERS. IN FACT, I RARELY EVER TALK ABOUT LINUX OUTSIDE THIS SHITHOLE OF A FORUM. THAT'S NOT TO SAY THERE AREN'T PEOPLE IN THIS "COMMUNITY" THAT NEED TO CHILL OUT.

>it's just a frontend
So what.

A lot of low effort low iq malware relies on powershell to pull the actual malware payload in.

>>106109040 (OP)
It was just a front end for clamav? Meh

>>106109565
If you're using Wine, or scanning files that will eventually be used on a Windows system.

>>106109565
>Isn't basically no point in making malware with the amount of OSes available?
What does this even mean? Linux distros have a lot more in common than you think. Also, there are much higher targets to go after. What percentage of the web do you think runs on Debian or one of its downstream spinoffs? Linux is not at all immune from malware. In fact, by default it's probably easier to get infected on Linux than it is on Mac/Windows.

With that being said, ClamAV (which this project was a frontend for) isn't even really an antivirus. It's a virus scanner and doesn't do anything other than (potentially) identify if files on disk are malicious. The only actual antivirus that to my knowldge exists for Linux is Windows Defender (kek), but it's some enterprise thing and costs money.

Man, many people should seek therapist.
He don't even need permission from people to make the frontend. he also doesn't need everyone to use his "software/frontend" he made.

>>106112056
Hes gonna need my permission from now on or else I'm gonna send an email calling him a fag.

>>106109040 (OP)
He will never be a woman

>>106109565
People run Windows games on Wine.
So yes, we do need it.

>>106112027
Stop flinging binaries around like an ape and you don't have to worry about this.

>>106112420
Just get your games from reputable sources

>>106112121
that's it? easy. will block your email. write blacklist words.

Yes, that's enough for him to cry and shit himself.

So just a GUI for another program? Those are the worst drama queens. Pure GUI devs are in it for the attention.

>>106112027
>Linux windows defender
I forgot about this. Did they not release a free version? I kind of wanted to try it

>>106109040 (OP)
I, too, hate people. People are entitled, ungrateful brats. People love to whine about other peoples shit smelling but refuse to admit their shit smells as foul. Working, and participating in the Open Source world made me realize how utterly retarded Marxism is. You cannot trust people because people are fucking retarded.
I honestly have people fatigue. I don't want to be in a "commune" nor be in a "community." I want people to fuck off.

This is not about chuds. There are state actors to derail open source projects. False accusations, misreports, useless non constructive flame wars, harassing, especially on projects with a very small number of contributors

Like a clockwork pottery, but everyone was happy that youtubers were paid by Microsoft to herd the cattle to trample Linux.

Linux will never be successful without corpo mindset.
This is why Linux and all your free software ideology is dying

>>106109040 (OP)
Literally never heard of this shit, and it's a fucking UI wrapper around ClamAV now owned by Cisco.
Who gives a shit. Call me when Cisco drops it.

Why are developers for Linux such pussies who can't handle verbal attacks? Are they hormonally imbalanced trannies?

crowdstrike has a linux versions, but it's only for LTS versions iirc.

>>106109565
You can make a malware for Linux, so an antivirus is not really that wild of an idea.
However Linux malware is not that common because Linux people generally are less likely to download interstellar.raw.rip.mov.exe

sure is weird how the more CoCs get injected into linux and foss the more cancerous the community becomes

>>106114922
its the attackers that are the troons

we'll see more stories like this as linux gains in popularity. proprietary fags bringing their consumer mindset is just a waste of resources for devs

Really? He quit coding because of a yo momma joke?

>>106109686
This, clamav mostly contains signatures for windows malware, it's used on mail servers for scanning attachments

>>106109565
There are some antivirus for mac and they're still in business.

>talking to people that aren't developing the software you're making
Why?
