Wayland is not killing smaller distributions. Who even came up with that batshit crazy idea?

[–] [email protected] 16 points 10 months ago (1 children)

Killing is overly dramatic, but it's putting a burden on certain projects if they want to convert to it and not all have the resources to tank it. I don't see Window Maker porting their toolkit to Wayland, for instance.

But XWayland exists so I don't see what's the fuss.

My comment was about distributions specifically and those package Wayland since ages.

Might as well be someone on lemmy since you reposted it here?

Doesn't mean I agree with it. It's still an interesting topic to discuss IMO, hence the repost.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 10 months ago (1 children)

I mean you do agree with it, clearly.

[–] [email protected] 5 points 10 months ago (1 children)

I actually stated in the title I don't.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 10 months ago (1 children)

Well that’s confusing because the meme is complaint text with Hulk saying that he sees this as an absolute win and you titled the post “I don’t” which means you don’t see this as absolute win and therefore agree with complaint text in the image.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 10 months ago (1 children)

Yes, I don't see this is as a win at all... what's your point?

[–] [email protected] 1 points 9 months ago (1 children)

Which means you agree with the completely false notion that Wayland is killing X, which was my point. Clearly.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 9 months ago

I don't see what the person wrote in that meme as an absolute win, even it was true.
