Why I won't use Leap 16.0

On 15.3 switching between Hex, Dec, Oct and Bin was done with radio buttons, so a single mouse click would switch the base. I use this a lot to quickly convert numbers. In 16.0 they changed this to a combo-box! And even the hotkeys apparently don’t work as before!

That is remarkable, on Tumbleweed I see:

Yes, things change over time, not too bad these 3 things for a distribution that is 3.5 years out of date.

I understand that there are languages that can only be represented in UTF-8, but mine is none of them.

Was not aware of this but but that sounds to me to a good reason to standardize on UTF-8, supporting old functionality is not free.
