> If I wanted to step back to the pre-net era, I'd run Windows. I wonder if there will be someone saying (when all the apps are native Wayland apps) "If I wanted to step back to the pre-stetic* era, I'd run X" I get the impression that comparing current Fedora and Linux in general running on varied hardware to the latest Windows and MacOS examples reveals a lack of slickness that is easy for Linux fans to make excuses for. I frequently see low frame rates, tearing and high CPU usage (and put up with them). But it shows that current X based desktops are hitting a barrier that there isn't sufficient development effort to overcome. I have a rough idea of the hoops that software has to jump through to provide a smooth scrolling browser window (for example). Something that improves this can only be good for the desktop. I don't think that there is a realistic threat that GUI based tools etc will ever need tight media integration or be balkanised so that they are not usable over the net. And I don't think it's a valid reason to shun technologies that might bring the desktop experience up to modern standards. -Cam * I nearly wrote haptic but it's really more than that. -- devel mailing list devel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/devel
