I want this man along with Richard Stallman and the creator of Slackware to be immortal

Patrick Volkerding. It's amazing he's still managing his own Linux distro after all of these years. And I'm eternal grateful for him refusing to adopt systemd and pulseaudio when they were both not mature and stable enough and most other distros didn't care.

Most users actually have enjoyed both systemd and pulseaudio for many years now. They are both some of the best technology we have in the Linux world.

[-] lichtmetzger@feddit.de 16 points 10 months ago

Yes, they are mature and stable now. But they weren't when they were first introduced into Ubuntu, for example.

[-] Overshoot2648@lemm.ee 11 points 10 months ago

pipewire is certainly much better than pulseaudio tho.

[-] mrmanager@lemmy.today 3 points 10 months ago

Yeah it's even better, I agree. :)

[citation needed] on pulseaudio being among the best technology.

[-] MigratingtoLemmy@lemmy.world 3 points 10 months ago

Always a pain, pulsesudio. Pipewire works better in my opinion
