oh that's good to hear, i might give wayland a try, hell i can also test on a 32 bit machine that i installed OpenBSD to (haven't really used it since)

do you happen to remember which CPU you were running? how was the performance, these R61s are kinda maxed out (regional government really likes to flaunt it's money sometimes)

i wonder if niri would work on these, my arm64 chromebook flies with niri!

that's true, but from what i've seen these gigantic cars really don't offer that much more space; if space/capacity was really a concern family buses/vans whatever would be much more popular. where i live most people i see on SUVs are alone on their car, bigger families just get a Citroen Berlingo <3

but yeah people do like big cars

it's been a long time since i've used X11 (haven't tried wayland on such old hardware), decided to go classic, OpenBox was the first WM i used!!

not USanian but afaik cars got so big over there because trucks (being work vehicles) have less (environmental, safety, ...) regulations than cars, that's why SUVs got so popular, manufacturers pushed them onto public. as long as the base for the vehicle is that of a truck they are legally exempt from many limits.

source: probably "Not Just Bikes" on y*utube idk

EDIT: just read about the chicken tax, interesting...
