I don't know much about steams internals but Firefox also still carries some relicts from gtk2 days for flash plugin support (due to be dropped in the...

I forgot an [/ironie] tag

As a friendly reminder to those who want to stick with Xorg: at some point you'll need to help maintaining it,...

Where is my font rendering?
My primitive rendering?
My Wprint? Seriously, Wayland can't do fax?...

Too bad https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/mutte...e_requests/798 didn't make it into 3.36 (partly because of a Xwayland bug) - after it lands things...

Fixes yes, but not new features. There are a few nice things in 1.21 that won't be backported, e.g. better flicker free (https://gitlab.freedesktop.o...

And the whole community benefits from reciprocal adoption of good code - open source at its finest, as it looks to me ...

Erm...hasn't amd adopted nir from intel? And radv is also based on anv, no?...

The above comments show why such a vision statement is needed. Nice and simple, good choice.

[treba]

Impressive. But...is there something similar non-proprietary on the horizon? Can something similar be archived with Vulkan / OpenCL, with the new ray...

Well, Ubuntu ships a quite modified version of GS, so I wouldn't be surprised...

[treba]

Yep, I just hope the components in use have a long term perspective. For example elogind, which AFAIK is mandatory for GS nowadays but apparently is still...

[treba]

Well, the pure shell should only use around 100-200MB, and a good part of that is actually textures/framebuffers/cached stuff (see e.g. https://gitla...

To write something on topic again: I occasionally check https://www.vsynctester.com/ for how well Firefox is able to keep smooth under relatively heavy...

[treba]

Yep, that was all https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1604048. Unfortunately it triggers a bug in GS 3.34.1 (https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/sh...
