(No hard feelings however you vote - X11, Wayland, and shrugging are all supported by the X.Org Foundation ๐) @XOrgFoundation How does one installs/implements shrugging though? Do you have a specification? ^^
In the algorithm, MUST and MAY are to be interpreted according to RFC 2119. 1. MUST put oneself in an upright position, like sitting or standing. @XOrgFoundation I love the "any vote is fine" take, but after all the notifications I've been flooded with today on this topic, I feel this poll could use a good deal more nuance ๐ @XOrgFoundation @jamey since xorg has long been dead and wayland DEs apparently need another decade to be finished, I vote zellij ๐ @XOrgFoundation@floss.social Purple shirt shrugging person single-handedly runs all displays on my PC @XOrgFoundation going with whatever works on my setup, usually it includes something obscure enough my favourite Wayland compositor refuses to work on it and I have to whip out X11 with a cursed config but you know it works @XOrgFoundation The answer is obviously: โwhatever people actually doing the work are going to be working on!โ Speaking as a former X maintainer in Debian, and as someone who integrated it in the graphical installer, replacing DirectFBโฆ Feeling a little sad to see that old friend go, not sure about the timeline in distributions, or about what (re)work will be needed in #DebianInstaller to keep a graphical version. But I'm sure we'll manage! Full support! ๐ฏ @XOrgFoundation Still on Xorg but mainly due to lack of hackable tiling wms on wayland. Any recommendations (other than qtile and dwl)? @mithicspirit @mithicspirit @XOrgFoundation sway! drop-in replacement for i3! recently moved my 10yo i3 config file to a .config/sway, changed one word in my .profile, et voila! switched to wayland! wow. such tiled. much amaze! @XOrgFoundation I used XFCE for years, then realized one day I was using it almost like a tiling WM anyway. Switched to Sway and haven't missed anything. @XOrgFoundation I'm not going Wayland for another 5 years when all programs and DEs have had all their toolings perfectly working in Wayland. There's no need for me to waste my time before. @XOrgFoundation@floss.social Wayland + XWayland, yetโ:blobcateyes:โ NVIDIA is not supporting wayland. They invented their own protocol. Wayland is doing its best to support it as I see it. @XOrgFoundation Even though I have some issues on my end, I voted Wayland because it's more modern and doesn't have startup screen tearing @XOrgFoundation I simply imagine how the program would look like in my head instead of running it.
@XOrgFoundation My only problem with Wayland is when I want to share my screen in a videoconference and the app doesn't support it @XOrgFoundation I chose :blobcatshrug: because I use Openbox and tint2, and I'm waiting for a stable version of labwc to arrive in Debian. @XOrgFoundation I should rly switch to wayland at some point |
@XOrgFoundation Xorg for highly customized environments, Wayland for something supposed to be more secure.
๐คท for my relatives' computers because it just has to work, so let the distro decide.
