Crash reporting
(discuss.tchncs.de)
Image transcription:
it's a swole doge vs cheems meme
on swole doge side, there are two popups: kCrash and Ubuntu apport. Both have options to see detailed logs and an optional button to send report to developers, along with options to close the popup.
accompanied is a text that reads "Here's the information. What do you wish to do?"
on crying cheems side, there's popup for windows and mac. windows has just a cancel button with report being sent already. mac has ignore and report button. there is no option to see logs without reporting on both. here, accompanied text reads, "let's add this to the personally identifiable information we have on you."
KDE's way is the best way
haven't used KDE, but it really looks an ideal crash reporter. even has stars for quality of logs.
I might be doing something wrong, but the crash reports themselves are damn near useless
yes, there should be a description box for sending additional inputs from the user. like what were they trying to do.
but GNU/Linux developers are already saddled with a lot of work, and I don't mind restarting the app at all. :)
I seem to remember that a text input field for details is available in the general tab.
I don't get many crashes in kde so I haven't seen the dialogue in a while.
