Since the 80’s, Linux has been using a display server called the X Window System

This is, of course, not true, given that Linux did not yet exist in the 1980s.

Unix-like systems that predate Linux did already use it in the 1980s.

Forums. I found forums the most engaging, interesting structure for "social media" that has ever been invented. I actually tended to get to know the people on them over time.

I have no idea why we ditched that structure in favor of "platforms".

On OSM all it takes is one person to delete that bridge if it isn't there anymore. That is what is so great about wikis.

I seriously do not understand where this idea of "profiting off someone else's work" even comes from. I am on Meta's side here 100%.
