At this point I think you're just arguing in bad faith and you have some strange ideological reasons to cling to X.

As I've already said, if this maintenance effort works out, then great! You, and maybe some other's, can continue to use X and the world will be happy.

I doubt that's going to be the case, but I do actually wish you the best of luck.

Debates, especially on highly subjective issues, will not always be resolved quickly and definitively in the absence of bad faith. That "ideological reasons" you're sensing is the worldview of the person you're talking to.

[antisol]

Sure, ok.

> some strange ideological reasons to cling to X.

"It works" == "strange ideological reasons"

...And you claim I'm the one arguing in bad faith, lol.

You might want to look up "projection".

> I do actually wish you the best of luck.

Yep, and good luck - sincerely - getting wayland to a usable state. Who knows, maybe in another decade or two it'll be worth revisiting

Wayland works great for me and is significantly more stable and feature-rich, so I'm not waiting for anything. I'm doing things right now that are probably never going to be possible on X just because of the legacy of X.

Obviously, our priorities are different, and probably our hardware too. Maybe I'm lucky, maybe you're horribly unlucky, I don't know. But I will continue to enjoy my higher DPI displays, and HDR, and thunderbolt :p

[antisol]

Yep, and meanwhile I'll be playing games on my nvidia card :)

[const_cast]

IMO nvidia cards are pretty much never worth the money. They're really only competitive at the very top end, which isn't where I am or where I think almost anyone else is.

At every other price point, they're just absolutely swept by the competition. Also nvidia in laptops has been a joke for as long as it's existed.

[antisol]

lol. I think you need to jump onto the repos for about 500 ML frameworks and tell them that the only hardware they support well "isn't worth the money".

At this point I think you're just arguing in bad faith and you have some strange ideological reasons to cling to Wayland.

With an attitude like that it'll never be ready for adoption.

Good luck!

> With an attitude like that it'll never be ready for adoption.

An attitude like what? That I... don't like nvidia because they've been actively hostile to OSS for decades? What the fuck do you want me to do about that? It's nvidia's software - if they want to be jackasses then that's not something I, or anyone else on Earth, can fix.

Also what I said about nvidia is 100% factually true.

Nvidia makes good hardware... at the very top end only. Only. Every other price point, they are objectively the worst option. They offer lower rasterization performance and usually it's not even that close.
