Ok… this may see nitpicky, but I’m not a fan of the new pink theme and the missing penguin.
Old:
New:
The pink is just too bright.
Would be nice if you just kept the old theme and added a dark mode.
Also, I’ve been using IPfire for ages and one thing that has always bothered me is the Self-Signed certificate. In the past I’ve manually installed my trusted cert, but it always gets overwritten during update. It would be nice if we could install a cert for the WebGUI and have it persist through updates.
I’d second that for the WebGUI certificates! It already is one of the first and annoying things I do after each update, checking if I need to copy my own certificates back to where they belong.
I mean the SSH host keys don’t change. so why do these certs need to? The certs I install don’t go away, but the apache.conf file has to be re-edited each time. Cert installation function is already in place for the VPN, why not apply it to the WebGUI too?
@mpyusko
do not feel bad. it is not nit-picking. it is called ergonomics!
i am very thankfull you have made the screenshots.
@ipfire
colorconcept:
as written already the chosen new color is stressing the eyes
and makes it a very uncomfortable to work with wui now!
one can do some research in ergonomics on that!
were there any problems with the 182 colors/fonts?
did the old colors/fonts caused any functional problems?
was there so much free and unused development-
capacity to ‘invest’ in changing a robust working
ergonomic color/font system?
hostname confusion wanted: IPFire_ - is more than three times the
space consuming and litterally disturbing.
fontforce:
forcing a font to the user? this is sad!
what is the intention on that move?
also just a huge step backwards on ergonomics.
i am capable of buying ipfire appliances and
supporting on configure them for the ones who
can not do it by themselves.
not patching things that already worked!
now i have to freeze these appliances at 182 as
183s wui is obviously not usable anymore without a
massive drawback in ergonomics.
