     @Saorsa Okay, but >AMD GPU
     Absolutely proprietary.
     
     Wayland and zsh and seriously having "Linux" as the hostname is yikes too.

     Surprised you never commented on the kernel not being Linux-Libre.
     
     But yes, I am indeed running Nonguix and Nix for certain packages that aren't available in most Guix channels.

     @Saorsa @anokasion I referenced that by referencing the AMD GPU.

     @Suiseiseki @Saorsa Wayland it's so fucking smooth, but there's a reason it gets patched every 3 days (among the other Fedora patches)

     @anokasion @Saorsa I enjoy the speed of Xorg without the latency of triple-buffered VSync.

     @anokasion @Saorsa I do not use NonFreeBSD.
     
     I use an old version of Xorg (as never update) and I'd consider XLibre if they ceased developing on github.
     
     I use Gentoo-libre.

     @Suiseiseki @Saorsa do you use XLibre right? on FBSD?

     @nexussfan @anokasion Of course it's proprietary slopware.
     
     Absolutely degenerate - total XLibre death!

     @Suiseiseki Also note that XLibre founder/developer "metux" uses AI for patches and for code review.
