Its not like they’re blocking all contributions, if it was more than niche, they wouldnt ignore the needs of other big players. I’m not fully across it, but the BSDs still make more use of xorg and maintain their own trees IIRC.
I really only saw headlines about Xlibre, hadnt followed up on it
The way they promoted PulseAudio, SystemD, Gnome 3, now Wayland. All that.
I agree Gnome 3+ is bad, but we do need modern components and honestly when the next biggest player in these things in Canonical with there NIH / throw it over the fence and like it attitude, I know which I’d prefer. Especially when these components truly are upstream projects, and they do indeed take community contributions.
almost no development of Xorg, but they don’t surrender the control of the project to someone who’d want to.
Yeah the xorg thing is shit for those that feel they still need it, but no one else really had the resources to maintain it. Its critical infrstructure, they can’t just hand it off until they’re done with it (RH10). Xlibre is happening by one of the biggest community contributors, but honestly it’ll end up like KwinFT.
I refuse to use Fedora (because it’s basically their testing bed)
interesting take
RedHat also does work to sink projects which don’t fit their strategy for Linux development
I’m interested in any examples you can provide of this
no, we have nano at home
We got married in 2011, moderate sized wedding and reception. What a waste of money. If I’d do it again I’d get married at a registry and then take the family out for dinner. Result would be the same and I’d probably be $20k AUD richer. 🤷
Being married is fine and pretty chill. Weddings are stupid
You opened it by moving the mouse pointer to the upper right or lower left corner.
in the corner and then gesturing the mouse up or down. The fact they put this abomination onto the server version, trying to do that at in an RDP or VNC window was the worst. We moved as much as we reasonably could off Windows Server at the time, and rushed standardising on server 2012 for the stuff we couldnt when it came out just because of how toxic interacting with Server 2008 was. I mean a Win for EoL software, but still

The fact that Waterfox is owned by Advertising Company System1, doesn’t bother you?
