Greek algebra, a truth is only true if all other examples of the truth are proven true. Or one can be a part of the whole but the whole isn’t exactly the same as one.
Lol Florida would be a dick.😆 What does that say about all the old people we exile to the Floridian badlands. Is it a metaphor for rebirth?
nexussapphire@lemm.eeto Linux@lemmy.ml•Why Wayland adoption to have official support in programs is so slow?English1·11 months agoThis whole argument ignores xwayland and the fact that new features are added as a standard of Wayland literally every day.
For as long as xwayland is supported you can use your old apps. Wayland actually supports different window icons for multi window apps. But Wayland has always supported window icons, kde just had an annoying bug they finally fixed. Chromium and electron apps kinda just didn’t support window icons very well in wayland for a while.
For accessibility, it’s been broken on Linux for literally years but there’s an active effort to make it better and more universal than it ever could have been on x11. The effort of building a fully featured accessibility stack is being led by the gnome team with help from the free desktop organization and kde.
This is my last response, this conversation isn’t going anywhere anyway. I’m not the one transitioning the Linux world to Wayland, I don’t see why you could blame me for it anyhow.
nexussapphire@lemm.eeto Linux@lemmy.ml•Why Wayland adoption to have official support in programs is so slow?English1·11 months agoYour arguments kinda weak, no offense. I do have a solution for you though. If you want to stick with a version of Linux that’s guaranteed to support xorg for eight years, I’d recommend Rocky linux! When that reaches EOL I guess you could just stay on it.
Enterprise plans on being fully switched over to Wayland by the next major version. You won’t be able to install xorg on redhat for example. The biggest contributors to xorg(Enterprise) are going to shift focus to xwayland to support legacy software on wayland.
Besides it’s exciting finally catching up to truly hardware accelerated desktops like Mac OS 10.0 and windows vista. At its heart xorg is a purely single threaded software accelerated bitmap based windowing system from 84. They’ve had to rewrite small but incredibly complex chunks of the code just to try to keep up with the modern world. Just look at the history of 3D acceleration in x11.
Your free to give it a good go though! The very same team that actively maintained xorg threw in the towel ten years ago when they diverted resources towards a new windowing protocol and they’re not going back.
nexussapphire@lemm.eeto Linux@lemmy.ml•Why Wayland adoption to have official support in programs is so slow?English11·11 months agoIf developers drop off there’s not much we can do. It’ll eventually have to be removed or become a bigger security risk than developers say it is already.
Support on the x server itself has dropped off precipitously since Wayland hit the mainstream and most small x11 DEs are trying to build off of WM like wayfire or wlroots.
nexussapphire@lemm.eeto Linux@lemmy.ml•Why Wayland adoption to have official support in programs is so slow?English2·11 months agoI don’t think kde plasma was the only one. Anyway, it just feels natural for xwayland to stop pushing for feature parody and for focus to switch over to Wayland after a while.
The biggest target for developers is the Ubuntu/Debian platform so their switch to Wayland should motivate other projects and paid applications to at least take notice.
New projects will try to support both but typically will focus more on Wayland. There’s already an unintentional incentive to partially support xdg protocols Wayland relies on thanks to flatpak.
nexussapphire@lemm.eeto Linux@lemmy.ml•Why Wayland adoption to have official support in programs is so slow?English9·11 months agoThey’re already starting to go that way, in a couple years Linux mint is even going to support Wayland. Ubuntu and fedora has already defaulted to Wayland. Fedora is actually deprecating xorg in a few releases. Budgie wants to have full support next year.
There isn’t much more than the testing they already have to do every release. Infact not having to support legacy code will free up resources for the whole Linux community as well as cutting the time in half for validating packages on distros. Every package that runs on xorg also runs on wayland, they have to test both.
Granted some have custom tools they’ll be working on but it’s going to be a while before every major DE supports Wayland. I’m curious, you think the distros have to implement their own version of Wayland?
nexussapphire@lemm.eeto Linux@lemmy.ml•Why Wayland adoption to have official support in programs is so slow?English11·11 months agoOnce the desktops switch to Wayland and all distros ship with Wayland by default, support should slow.
Ideally, developers stop improving xwayland over time and go into maintenance mode for a bit. Once it goes into maintenance mode, developers should naturally fall off as it winds down.
If every desktop makes a very public announcement about the xwayland protocol being put into maintenance mode, actively supported apps should switch over. It’s up to the public how long they want to keep maintaining xwayland (open source etc).
It was the only way I could tell how much time is left, I didn’t have a phone till highschool. In school counting down the second till school was over was so crucial.

Anyone can fork and carry on the project without the permission of Google, every manufacturer already does as a result of the license.

I unironically do this every time I eat out. More for the sea creatures and the island of plastic but still.
You gotta be fast because they’ll slap down too many straws and throw them away later.
nexussapphire@lemm.eeto Technology@lemmy.world•uBlock Origin developer recommends switching to Firefox as Chrome flags the extensionEnglish1·1 year agoI don’t know, they’re just security measures you can take. Maybe some personal preference thing. I don’t bother with the app guard thing and SELinux is pretty annoying with my Nvidia graphics card but a firewall is something I always setup.
nexussapphire@lemm.eeto Technology@lemmy.world•uBlock Origin developer recommends switching to Firefox as Chrome flags the extensionEnglish23·1 year agoFirewalled for limiting untrustworthy connections to the computer(public networks, hotels, even work).
apparmor for protecting the kernel and controlling file access to applications. SELinux is also a good option but if you need to load kernel modules, it can take a few minutes to sign and register it. It is automated on redhat systems though.
Other than that, do your research and don’t run random scripts and install random apps.
nexussapphire@lemm.eeto Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•Why people loves Mr. Beast content? Or Why his content is so popular?English1·1 year agoI don’t know much about the guy, I don’t even watch him. I was making an observation based on what other people’s comments said. I’m pretty sure you’re on the nose. Most people in his situation probably would try to bring some good in the world.
I just like leaving it to the professionals. It’s also important to make sure the community gets a vote on weather that’s the best solution or if other things are more urgent.
Kinda like how funding went into mosquito nets and instead of using it to protect infants from malaria it was used as a fishing net. In that community putting food in the table was more important. Now there are issues of chemicals being leached into the water by the treated nets and overfishing due to the fine mesh.
nexussapphire@lemm.eeto Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•Why people loves Mr. Beast content? Or Why his content is so popular?English1·1 year agoI mean you could take it out of context like that.
I think he’s probably a good kid. I just find the act very similar to those rich hippies, kinda gross. It’s personal preference not judgement.
I guess you had to be there, he has some very fun videos. His garbage time videos are a lot of fun if you like watching people mess around with shit boxes. And if you’re into drums, he has the drum thing too.
I guess if you’re boring and like watching others play games you could just play yourself. There’s hello, I’m gaming. He tries to make it more interesting but it’s gaming so.
