Dec 7, 2014 at 0:07 comment added Anon Its not the community (Although they do lack the Ubuntu Code of Conduct, and I think it shows), its just the questions and answers that these are framed in. That said; your link proves my point from my perspective. The first question here: stackoverflow.com/questions/13523701/… really isn't the way I would do things in Ubuntu. Instead of Listview; I use Repeater { delegate: Label {}}, as that provides way better flexibility.
Dec 6, 2014 at 23:59 comment added RobotHumans Really?, that said, I'm not the biggest fan of SO. That doesn't mean I just get to change the scope of sites, because I like the community on one or the other better. This part of the conversation isn't related to the answer, and should really be in chat... not a set of comments.
Dec 6, 2014 at 23:56 comment added Anon Ughh... not a fan of stack overflow. It is subtle, but if you can appreciate this; asking a qml question on SO is like asking how to program QML in the blackberry forums. The coding style is just different than what I am used to on Ubuntu, and this frankly goes for many other programming languages as well.
Dec 6, 2014 at 23:44 comment added RobotHumans @Akiva - I'd be really careful trying to fight this particular battle. There's already a markedly large amount of tension on the stack network about why AU even exists when we have UL and saying all SO questions are on-topic here would certainly only enflame the same sort of issue. I just take what I get and enjoy the community that is here.
Dec 6, 2014 at 23:41 comment added Anon This principle however did not apply in these cases: paste.ubuntu.com/9403600 -- In fact; it is plausible that these qml questions attract developers to the ubuntu platform, who may otherwise be developing on windows or mac.

Dec 6, 2014 at 23:22 comment added Oli Mod Indeed. That's about how Qt interfaces with parts of Ubuntu. String mutability isn't. We can dance around but rules mean relatively little to how the reviewers feel about these topics.
Dec 6, 2014 at 23:18 comment added Anon Funny I thought I had linked that thread. I was definitely looking at it, because it promped my question. Why? Because of this line: What is the correct way to use the "scroll-event" signal (on an indicator) for Qt? - On topic. It has to do with the indicators, clearly part of the Ubuntu system.
