Why should I care though?

  Could say the same thing about why it's in the blog post. You don't have to care at all. It's just an odd blog post that just from technical intro to rant about DEI and censorship and back to technical details. And joecool1029 just provides more context to what was said in the blog post.

Odd little rant suddenly appears in the middle of it :D Here is how I set up minimal Desktop, WATCH 4 VIDEOS ABOUT HOW DEI IS KILLING OPEN SOURCE PROJECTS, and here is my loader.conf ...

Indeed. Xenocara would be a better bet. But the more these people have to collaborate with different people, the more empathy they will need. https://git.sr.ht/~rabbits/fashware https://git.sr.ht/~rabbits/fashware About Nemo (Fran J. Ballesteros from plan9/9front) he has half as encuse as he grew up (for sure) under the Francoist regime probably from the loaded family side, and, thus, he had to swallow tons of literal extreme right wing ideology even at school (Franco's regime). But the point on being a conspiranoid about the Covid... I would expect more sanity from the mindset from a guy perfectly abled in algoritmics, math and by proxy, science. Echo chambers create these kinds of idiots even on really smart people (the far right in Spain used cult like mechanics too), and I'm sure Fran changed a bit over time for the better. On the Cosmopolitan/APE person, I remind you that if you want to get back to Reissanance times, I'm a Spaniard, and thus, your whole ideology pales against the Iberian Humanism from the School of Salamanca, where at the time we were the Enlightened ones and you were just a bunch of WASP uneducated hicks living in filthy villages in the middle of Europe. Back to 9intro, even if you dislike ~nemo, 9intro it's still worth to learn programming on 9front, it's a great book to share and learn from. If would be a waste to ditch it just because some old fart doesn't get into the times. EDIT: ok, now I see ~nemo it's not that old, so a plausible indoctrination from the Francoism wouldn't apply there; but I'm pretty sure being a conspiranoid on Covid doesn't look like the normal socialization out there.

The issue (I think) is that FreeBSD and other non-Linux, X11-using distributions are being ignored in the path to using Wayland; deprecating X11 has a much broader impact as a result, which leads to supporting XLibre which does support X11 and does support non-Linux Unices that are running X11.

The way Xorg is handling this is surreal. Now, they're trying to rewind Xorg 2 years just to get rid of XLibre's main developer's contributions[0]. 0. https://youtu.be/d7-FczaSkdo https://youtu.be/d7-FczaSkdo

  Because his contributions are bad... Not because anyone has an agenda.

    If that was true, then why did the reviewer approve and merge them?
