        Yeah, massive amounts of completely preventable suffering and death due to people no longer using vaccines thanks to the spreading of these conspiracy theories is totally not a big deal compared to someone having a bad attitude.

          I said I will take it, not that I think everyone else should, or is capable of recognizing/ignoring conspiracy theories. I struggle much harder with ignoring bad attitudes than I do obvious bullshit, but to each their own.

      Are we talking about the author of the article or the initiator of the Xlibre project?

    The author doesn’t appear to know the differenc between Wayland and the compositor. Or between X and the window manager. Neither Wayland nor X tile windows (which are called frames btw)
