> It's a shame xlibre didn't come around sooner Xorg team had accepted Enrico's patches then did not release them. Classic saboteur handbook stuff

  There were years where, to my understanding, they were deliberately not accepting features or patches to push Wayland, which is kind of frustrating, because it misses the point of a competitive ecosystem. Like on one hand if they're deliberately sabotaging Xorg for Wayland it implies Wayland must actually be a lot better, but on the flip side if Linus had sabotaged linux in favor of seL4 we'd all be worse off, even though kernel engineers often regard microkernels as a "better architecture".
