- i2cmaster 3y agoOpenBSD always seems to have the sanity you would normally expect from GNU/Linux. I already run their WM, I might switch entirely to their OS.
- bitwize 3y agoBut Mr. Anderson, what good is an X server... if no toolkits support it?
- bandrami 3y agoThis is the silliness I'm talking about. Nobody's going to go rip X support out of toolkits. Distros still ship token ring support; they're not going to literally "get rid of" X either.

- bandrami 3y agoNobody is going to take the effort to actually remove support from released versions of GTK. You're just being silly. Will GTK 5 not support X? Possibly! I don't really care though. I pretty much just use 2 as it is when I have to use GTK. But GTK and QT still support DirectFB, which is almost 2 decades old at this point. X isn't going away.
