Good to know. That was my first question.

I hope this means they also get rid of nonsense like pulseaudio and logind.

I’m a bit skeptical of the “shared session bus” though. Linux supports inode watches for things that want to react to configuration changes, and session busses add a ton of complexity (including a second authorization language, and a userland SPOF)

They use pipewire IIRC (which is 1.0 now!!).

And they have a custom alternative to login AIUI.

They’re working on it. The reason is explained in the FAQ.

For now they seem to be using a different alternative to do at least some of it. I think it was called elogind?
