This will obviously not be comparable to a tiling window manager, but I've been pretty happy with Rectangle [1] on my mac. The keyboard mappings are pretty easy to configure and i've found it to work well even in multi monitor set

The story isn't as dire as it sounds like. Yes there are multiple stdlib alternatives, but I wouldn't classify any of them as a "wrong" choice. They interoperate pretty well, and using one stdlib alternative will not blo

I like the apple tv interface, but I really disliked the remote that ships with it. The touchpad like interface feels really awkward, i would lift it up the wrong way pretty much every time. I remember reading about an apple certified 3rd p

I don't think there are "more sides" to this story. Harassing someone because one doesn't like an update to a piece of software is not okay.

For carplay and android auto, you'd plug your phone in via a lightening or a usb-c cable. I think there is wireless carplay and android auto too these days, but I'm not sure if that's available on many vehicles at the moment.

Which DE do you use with Ubuntu? If Gnome then the wayland support is already pretty decent with 20.04 and 20.10. (Gnome versions 3.36 and 3.38). The wayland situation on KDE Plasma is also improving with each new release and some other dis

The `opium_kernel` example I linked to above is running on top of https://github.com/dinosaure/paf-le-chien which is a mirage layer for httpaf. Opium itself has also moved to using httpaf as the underlying layer.

Lwt [1] based web frameworks can be used on MirageOS if they provide an interface that allows someone to swap out the unix dependent pieces. One such framework is Opium [2], that provides most of its features in a unix independent code libr
