tbh... I just dont follow what people believe to be the future for Linux.

I may use Pipewire but that's where it ends. I've never got to see any advantage of Wayland over X11 especially if I rely on an antique proprietary NVIDIA driver. Flatpak packages things, cool, so does Aptitude. oh it also sandboxes? why the fuck does it decapitate applications in abilities and require me to install another program to unfuck this? I dont use GNOME because GNOME's vision of the desktop doesn't align with mine (+ its a memory hog). KDE promises a lot but fails utterly for me in this regard and I don't see myself patching and changing verbose settings for it to look like KDE 3 / GNOME 2, so I end up with XFCE. I use runit because I want a simple service manager and not a batteries included sub-operating-system.

Whatever, FOSS is fucked either way, in all directions.
