Maybe I know nothing, but it quite common that the technically superior solution don't get a lot of adoption and eventually dies.

All the old X apps used xrdb, to some degree. I think of xclock, xbiff, xditview, xcalc, bitmap, etc.

I think Wayland, and the modern desktop in general too, has forgot about a few good ideas that the original X system had. I will miss them once Wayland has taken over: - A unified way to change applications settings. All old X apps used to

Do you know what kind of encryption it uses? I couldn't find any information on this from the site. Yggdrasil looks it could be perfect to set up a simple VPN with zero configuration, but it's hard to trust its cryptography if it&

Same here on NixOS. I'm running dhcpcd: on new leases/router adverts it calls resolvconf and updates /etc/resolv.conf accordingly. I don't feel the need for yet another daemon to perform such a simple task.

Was that corrected later? I could swear I saw "vulnerable" too and interpreted it as "old unmaintained software that could be easily took over by systemd".

I don't have much simpathy for MapsWithMe: they were illegally using OpenStreetMap data by not providing attribution[2] to the project and never complied. I don't know if intentionally or not, but they didn't make life easy f

DNSCurve still lives in DNSCrypt, which works very well. There are quite a few public resolvers listed here: https://dnscrypt.info/public-servers .

What about qutebrowser? It's based on QtWebEngine (a sort of ungoogled chromium), has a minimal UI, extremely customisable and can be extended with userscripts (nothing to do with js). You can do stuff like editing textareas in your ed

If the prefix is dynamic there is a (undocumented?) feature[1] in iptables that allows to only match an EUI-64 or custom static suffix, which should be enough for home networks. I'm mentioning this here because I looked for hours for a
