Firefox 75 On Wayland Now To Have Full WebGL, Working VA-API Acceleration

mppix GNOME has no intention to take over or dominate. They just want to do their thing. Nothing wrong with that.

You have that intention though. Admit it.

Also Xorg is a server, and a protocol. As server: the client can be running in another machine and use the server thru internet. Maybe you don't know what is internet, too fresh technology.
You don't know what you write.

X.Org is NOT a protocol. The protocol is called X11.
There are other implementations of that protocol, like XQuartz.

I cannot see any meritocracy in that document!! This governance model was crafted in a way that GNOME would subliminally become the one working the protocols out!

Sounds like you see only what you want to see.

Like the "3 positive votes for approval, 1 negative vote for rejection" thingy. Basically this means that the GNOME devs in the member board can just say "no" to every new protocol brought by KDE, Sway or whatever. Would that even count as "meritocracy"?!
A "~60% positive votes for approval" approach would have worked better in my opinion.

Please enlighten us, which protocols brought by KDE, Sway or whatever has been rejected?

The only thing you are doing to me is making me mad because I have to defend Linux desktop!
I cannot let it die by having a poor desktop take over the entire planet! (which in turn will cause everyone to quit using Linux and therefore Linux dies on the desktop)

This had me laughing so hard I choked on my coffee. Looks like this guy will still be waiting for the "year of the Linux desktop" in 2050.

Whatever, that was not the original topic. Let's just end the thread here already! :l

You seem confused. What you want to end here is your conversation, not the thread.

wayland is a protocol, xorg is an implementation. you can compare wayland with x11. or weston with xorg.
including limitations, bugs, missed features. just as wayland, but nobody is going to fix it, since everyone is fixing wayland
serious users don't know what they are using. they just boot their distro and everything should work

Exactly

Wayland is not that good. It has limitations, bugs, missed features. It's a game. Xorg

and should used by serious users

[pal666]

here are my trolling contributions

your contributions are bug reports. which would be good if you'd managed to have better success ratio. as it stands, most of them is pointless whine

[pal666]

See? A Wayland compositor is basically talking to KMS/evdev directly. LMAO. Glorified KMS.

what a moronic idea. anything talking directly to libc is glorified libc? wayland compositor composes images from clients and passes result to kms. x server also "is basically talking to KMS/evdev directly.". basically you are dumb as brick

T(h)rolling bring nothing good to everyone. Stop imaginating, start thinking.

ok, that thoughts are born in your head when you see latest news item from 2013?

Then Wayland will never be ready.

This is the exact polar opposite of my dayly experience use Wayland daily in production environments (even with proprietary Nvidia driver). Once adapted to the fairly minor changes, it has less problems than X11.
I use Debian and if I use a DE, I'm lazy and install the default - Gnome. I'd be happy with most others but I just don't want to bother with graphic glitches of non-standard DEs (its not bad but there tend to be some at least on Debian).

That is just a really poor decision on their side.
They do this on purpose as part of their plans to ensure GNOME takes over.

DE developers and GPU companies jointly decided Wayland direction and implementation as seemingly everybody agrees that x11 is a dead end. However, I doubt Wayland is an instrument for Gnome dominance. If yes, Gnome pulled of the stunt of a lifetime and every other DE developer is a fool that did not see it coming. I doubt it also because Sway is doing well.
