Kinda insane how many people in a nominally open source community are defending this guy for switching to a proprietary license. If DuckStation gets shut down then I say good riddance. It is not the only PS1 emulator in town and I will not miss the endless flow of Stenzek-related drama.
Er, yes. It's one of the main features being introduced in 3.0. I don't know why you would just assume they're not adding it without looking it up. It made quite a bit of noise when it started being in the works.
Basically everywhere I go on Lemmy you're there spouting ignorant bullshit, garbage takes, rage-bait and misinformation. You're inescapable. This is the perfect example. You know what you're saying is wrong. You know you're being dishonest. Do you wanna know how I know? Because I literally told you as much less than two weeks ago when you tried spreading the same lies. But you didn't care back then and you still don't care now. The only thing you seem to care about going by the other things I've seen you post is pushing your favorite projects, and you will use all of the arguments available to do so, including the ones that you just entirely made up. You think LadyBird is the better project and are trying to spread the belief that Servo is dead to make others buy into the LadyBird hype further. But, of course, Servo verifiably isn't dead and in fact the Servo team writes up monthly blog posts detailing their progress, which show the project developing at a healthy pace. And to top it all off, when these facts are pointed out to you, your only comeback is "means nothing". Clearly you're not the kind of person to let facts tie you down.
Because it doesn't matter for most apps. XWayland works fine.
Even Blender says if it fails to use Wayland it will use X11.
What are you trying to say? Of course it does. Pretty much every Linux app still supports X11, because a lot of people are still using X11. Only exception I'm aware of is Waydroid.
It used to be open source, but large parts of it have been relicensed under their proprietary source-available shared source license. The reason why it isn't entirely proprietary is that it's based on Firefox, which is entirely licensed under the MPL. The weak copyleft of the MPL states that all parts lifted from Firefox must remain open source, but the new parts can be proprietary.
Source-available licenses are a type of proprietary license where the code is made public for people to look at, but you're not actually allowed to use it. Users can still contribute upstream, so they're usually parasitic licenses aimed at getting free labour out of the userbase without actually giving back any code to the commons, all while keeping up the illusion of being open source. It sucks.
It is significantly less powerful when compared to LibreOffice, lacking support for many features. It offers less applications than LibreOffice. It is significantly less customizable than LibreOffice. It's built on bloated web tech. It lacks RTL support.
I am not paranoid about OnlyOffice's origin. I also do not think it is the best office suite on Linux by a mile.
It's not an unpopular opinion that Apple is the only one that does sleep right. It is an unpopular opinion that this is only possible because they have a complete walled garden and that open platforms are fucked, especially considering it is easy and common to install applications from outside the App Store on macOS. We used to have sleep figured out, that's what S3 was. But then hardware vendors dropped it. So yes, drivers and hardware vendors are part of the problem. The Steam Deck is an example of an open platform where sleep works fine.
Sure.

nearly your entire system is written in C and you're worried about a simple fetch program
Can people who very clearly haven't read the article stop commenting the equivalent of "works on my machine", please? I know it's a long article, but it's worth a read. It's not anti-Wayland and it's definitely not pro-X11. It just outlines a few limitations of Wayland and problems with how Wayland is currently being developed. It's a great follow up to Nate's blog post, which was posted here a while back and got pretty popular.
Oh boy, 102 comments. Knowing Phoronix, I bet those are a treat to read.
The article you linked makes a big deal about literally nothing. We've known Chrome was going to drop MV2 for years. We also know Firefox won't. There is nothing more they have to do or say about this situation. It doesn't affect Firefox whatsoever.
"Suspiciously silent" is such a bullshit nothing accusation to make. It is so obviously trying to capitalize on how many users have been (justifiably) turning on Mozilla as of late.
