I wish, there was a standard URL suffix for "Pages for Techies", like "/techspecs", or similar.
Whenever I go to a Product-Page like this one, I'm instantly turned off by the flashiness and wordy prose.
I want a feature list, in text form, not an intro-movie!
Before closing the tab i did notice though, that this product seems interesting, and I would have liked to read more about it.
- nycticorax 7y agoYeah, it's funny how often I end up going to the Wikipedia page of a company or product to find out what they're selling in plain language.
- stragies 7y agoThe solution would be easy: Put the flashy stuff in a div with ID "advert", and the ad-blocker will hide it from view. All non-techies gets the intro-movie. Anyway: Here is the list of things I gathered from the comments (iiuc): * Uses a fork of x.org with support for legacy Windows version removed. * Costs 10$ if you find it on sale, 50$ otherwise. * Can be installed on 10 PCs. * Can be installed/updated via the AppStore. * Has a windowed mode. * Well-integrated into Windows 10 and WSL. * Takes advantage of HyperV virtio vsock for small latency enhancement. * If VcXsv or XMing are unstable for you, file a bugreport, and try if X410 is more stable. * Cannot make use of hardware assisted rendering, because of underlying WSL limitation w.r.t GVT-g in some HW configurations
