@marcan@treehouse.systems this could easily be said about many software projects.
some folks wants stuff to work nice and stable, but do not want to put in the work themselves to help make it so.
with how many developers there are out there, it is a bit sad that so few (sometimes none) volunteer to take care of base infrastructure.
perhaps the result of a systemic problem.
X11/Wayland just being one of critical pieces involved. the same story to be repeated soon with other critical system libraries.
@falktx @marcan also want to point out that considering that it is sad that *noone volunteered* is kinda the problem here. Since when volunteering to be hurt to help others with no support and nothing to get in return, what do you expect?
Why should developers out there "take care" of something that it seems no one really want?
Why are the users that want it so much not taking care of said devs? isn't *that* a bit sad?
@Di4na @marcan@treehouse.systems err people do want X11, myself included. your questions was badly phrased..
And I expect people to be a bit more altruistic, then we wouldn't even need to discuss this so much.
Users often do not understand what is involved in maintaining such software. It is very complex matter, we should not blame the users.
Sometimes they say things that are misguided, it is up to us to correct them.
Software devs are the ones that know what is involved, but often still refuse to contribute
