My gods. Do not pass start. Do not collect $200. Hint, see https://bugzilla.redhat.com/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=230006 and come back when you understand the implications. Thanks.
You're asking the world to upgrade to benefit your pet project or be left behind. The chances of that working out are not high.
It's because I live in this century and don't use OSS myself.
And yet you feel justified to dismiss it. I don't use the desktop much myself, so it must be unimportant. Replace OSS with ALSA; the point still stands and perhaps you can identify more with it. Say 'ESD' in a room full of Linux users five years ago, and the first thing anyone thought was 'Oh, it's that thing I have to kill so all my sounds apps will work again'. If we repeat that mistake with PA, PA will also become reviled.
Of course, we wouldn't enable such things by default because we don't have OSS apps in the default install. Perhaps enterprise distros that care about old crap would.
Fine. Do we ship any ALSA apps? I think we might.
Here's a quarter, Monty. Go use it to try a modern Linux desktop.
