I'm not here to make Linux succeed. I'm here to make good software. Users who know better will use Linux and users who don't won't. Either way Linux will keep on trucking, as it has for a very long time. It shows no sign of stopping.
I'm using Wayland and love it and what it represents for the future of Linux. Desktop security is more important than supporting NVIDIA's hostile products.
Thanks for your work on wlroots and other software I've enjoyed. I imagine I'll be switching to sway soon as well. There was something preventing me from adopting it yet but I can't remember what it was. I believe it was on the roadmap though.
I'm glad you posted this article because my new year's initiative is to donate to a couple dozen FOSS projects and you definitely deserve some of that.
Given that Wayland still doesn't properly support remote desktop, a feature that has been working continuously in Windows for decades through tons of graphics model changes, I'm not sure I'd play the "users who know better" card.
No, it is not. The article basically just says, "yeah, we don't support remoting, someone got to make it work". For users, the second part is redundant, because the only thing that matters to them is that remoting doesn't work, and they can't really fix it on their own.
That aside, I have to say that if your responses are representative of the overall attitude towards such questions in the community, I doubt things are going to improve anytime soon.
