You say X11 is unsupported, and I note with glee that X11 hasn't _broken_ for me _since_ they stopped supporting it.

- exe34 2y agoyes, I wish more software would be "unsupported" like this!
- panick21_ 2y agoWhen software works it just works, and if you don't change it it continues to work. But if you had an issue, its unlikely that it would be fixed or that new features you want would arrive. Unsupported is fine for much software on the world.
- cwillu 2y agoIndeed. It is often a feature that core infrastructure doesn't gain new features.
- panick21_ 2y agoHardware is evolving, and while the core feature set works, it wont keep up. If you personally don't care about those things, that fine, and its a feature for you. But eternal stagnation isn't actually a realistic option.
