Previous thread got raided, ignore shills and judge for yourselves: >>109420176
Expect the Xlibre PR manager known as tango to arrive for damage control.

Really kind of them to still package this thing...

I had high hopes desu, I'm back to Xorg for now because there were crashes on my intel igpu. Perhaps it'll sort things out.

This is just a reactionary nostalgia fork, X was shit and still with X11/Xorg/Xlibre it still is.
- yserver
- phoeniX
Are better ideas. I don't think wayland was the solution.
Pipewire for displays would have been better. something that supports X11 directly while also applying it's own protocol, hell the X11 features could just be a wrapper.
>>
>>109452259
Agreed, the idea was excellent but the implementation sucked. It must be rewritten, but not the crappy way of Wayland nor the hopeless rebranding of Xlibre.
>>
>>109452160
intimidating, staying on xorg for now

>yserver
The vibecoded Rust reimplementation of X11? The only thing remarkable about it is that using y instead of x is very honest for a Rust coder.

phoenix? wasn't its dev part of xlibre some time back and left because metux kept force-pushing or something?
>>109452160
some users got really pissed off, lol
>>
I havent had any problems with xlibre, but im using built in modesetting and amdgpu. Only x driver i build / use is the xlibre evdev driver. Im not running the latest dev build only latest stable. Metux has been using ai tools quite a lot which is a bit concerning, but if he can manage that well and other people dont spam the project with slop it should be fine.
>>
>>109454372(me)
I just checked, im on 25.1.8 people are having problems with the dev builds 25.2+
>>
>>109452160
That's quite a long list
>>
>>109452160
So what was the reason behind this disaster? Too much AI or just sheer incompetence?

Surely it will get better someday, right? I will just wait till the next Debian/Devuan release
>>
i've only had an issue with fastcompmgr but i think that's been fixed. i still have no idea what any of this "drama" is or why i keep seeing threads about it. i'm not some anti-wayland fag i just i'm just an icewm autist who can't be arsed to move over atm.

This thread is unusually quiet unlike the previous, I guess tango got range-banned. Which proves my suspicion he's the only Xlibre shill left.
>>
I'm just gonna continue using cinnamon with regular x11 and ignore goofy nerd drama and my computer will keep working normally.

Still absent, he must have earned a broad and lengthy ban.
>>109452160
So, he basically tried to present this as bad-faith reporting in the previous thread. This dude has done more damage to xlibre than everything else combined. I wonder why he hasn't got the boot yet.
