[…] I announce that our move off of wlroots is now complete and MR 6608 is now merged.
You must log in or register to comment.
People keep saying this happened only because vaxry got banned from the FDO, completely forgetting the fact that hyprland has used their own modified fork of wlroots for ages now. They’ve wanted to get away from wlroots even before this whole fiasco, it really just tipped the needle for them to finally pull the trigger.
Mind you also, the ban in no way prevents hyprland from using wlroots still. The only thing the ban did was prevent vaxry from contributing to wlroots upstream, which is damn unfortunate if you ask me.
For everyone shitting about Vaxry, I recommend reading both sides of the equation, not only FDO/Drew’s.
Wow! Just like how I moved away from Hyprland. :)
Your loss lol
Ngl this will blow over in like 2 weeks, FOSS drama has the lifespan of a moth
Well done to Vaxry and co for achieving such a feat! I still think it’s completely pointless but at least it will mean that it can now be more easily packaged for other distros, as it avoids the issue with using tagged wlroots.
Very nice, this comes with a lot of advantages for Hyprland, and I wholeheartedly congratulate Vaxry on separating from the rubbish that is FDO’s management.
Neat
Watching the discussion here I finally get how it feels like to be a centrist. And it feels dirty.
Anyway, good for them, or whatever. Hyprland was a’ight when I tested it, even if it ain’t my thing. Still hoping for a Wayland Compositor that gives an XFCE-type experience (that is to say, UX without Gnome’s ‘opinionated’ weirdness, and without all the fancy effects that Plasma has. Relatively lighter, also looks a bit retro)
A Wayland Compositor with an XFCE-type experience
XFCE is working on Wayland support!
You can theme plasma and turn the effects off. Why isn’t that exactly what you want?
You may want to look into gnome classic, it comes default with gnome.
It’s not fancy or even popular, but it was made specifically for people like you.
Wow. Too bad people can’t get past themselves and grow together over preferring to hold on to a situation to be enraged about forever. Sorry no apologies accepted ever. I’ve established a pattern as victim, jury, and judge and my position is rational and not emotional and I will sound off to squash the bigotry as the only way to defeat it is to never move past it.
What would be the advantages of using this over, say i3? (Does it summarize to X vs Wayland)
Yes. Also plus eye candy with hyprland. Sway is the i3 experience on Wayland. The official roadmap for i3 is to fall into obscurity as Xorg goes away. They explicitly call out that other things exist for Wayland and adjusting i3 would distract resources from those projects
Seems like a very bad decision
I think its a good idea not having wlroots everywhere, its important so that people dont just assume every wlroot extension is available
I use Mutter
i was here for systemd round 2
i don’t have any stake in this, i’m a fucking xfce user lmao, but man “hyprland” is not a very great name since it immediately makes me think it’s a crypto bullshit project…
aiaiaia wasn’t fully aware didn’t really care, because I don’t need #eyecandy but this seems like problem: https://blog.vaxry.net/resource/articleFDO/RHMails.pdf Make up your own mind, folks.
