I'm really not sure what I feel about the naming. It's one letter off (both on the keyboard and alphabetically) from IMAP. Is this an attempt to coattail the widespread recognition of IMAP or just an extremely unfortunate name col

Not necessarily. The UNIX C syscall APIs all return 0 on success and anything not-zero is generally considered failure (usually -1). Even if it's wrong in C, it could possibly be more efficient in assembly to change the truthiness assu

I'm honestly astounded by how much fallout is generated by GNOME alone: GNOME strongly integrating with systemd pushing systemd itself[1] onto major distributions, now GNOME forcing Wayland. Hell, RHEL even dropped KDE support entirely

As an aside since you brought up Undernet: Their CService website[1] has been down for weeks now. As far as I know, that's the only way to even register with X. I'm not sure if this is being worked around, somehow, or if UnderNet
