None ever, yes.
Not sure what you mean to ask there, but I gotta say hyprland would make a sick name for a tiling dwm.
Hey, there is an entire wayland bad x11 good article hidden in the last 4/5ths of the article!
Anyway, the article seems to argue that "toxic elements within Xorg projects, moles from BigTech, are boycotting any substantial work on Xorg".
It seems to me that now that wayland has become the clear focus of development, most devs sinply want X11 to remain as a legacy element, not causing unnecessary issues elsewhere, just remaining on lts.
The train has sailed, wayland is the norm and everyone is working on implementing the last leftovers the article is parading in its weird latter half, rather than through much greater efforts achieving worse results in patching up X11.
They should have forked X 10 years ago, when people were still interested in improving it.
It being left behind is a logical and fully adequate explanation, arguing eee makes little sense when wayland is clearly a simpler protocol. If you wanted to harm linux or foss, and your plan was the transition to wayland and freezing of X11 development, I would call you stupid.
I don't see why this fork, and this article, have to get conspiritorial about something this easily explained.
Now that we have the conspiracy crap addressed: wayland defense time
The Reg FOSS desk is nearing 60, [...] He doesn't care about [...] high and variable refresh rates, tear-free video,
My fancy new monitor I got in '22 doesn't work on X11. I'd have to replace my other monitors with matching new ones for a few grand, or keep watching videos and all else at 15fps, getting a headache. If you wanna keep your crt, why not keep an ancient X11, why this fork?
X11 doesn't support normal modern hardware, my monitor wasn't even special, it's just higher fps than my other monitors and 4k.
Wayland does not currently allow controlling window position. This means that when you open KiCad, it cannot remember where you last placed your windows.
The window pos remembering api (name made up by me, I forgot the real one) has been finalized, and will be in this or the next KDE version, etc.. The wayland people are fixing the criticism faster than the critics can shorten their list of remaining issues.
.
uhhhh... ok that's all the wayland criticism, 'cause surprise, the last 2/5ths of the article are actually a rant about ... gnome? I think?
Something about no more shortcut support or how removing title bars is bad and the gnome disk manager has bad ui.
Idk my shortcuts are better than ever and my title bars were still there last time I checked.
But maybe this "big no-accessibility" is why absolutely no tiling dwms have ever been seen for wayland ever. If you switch to wayland you will have to tile by mouse exclusively, you heard it here first!
one in which Weigelt announced the project's Telegram group [...] [which] has nearly 500 members and many thousands of threads.
Mindboggling they think it's acceptable to use a platform that limits access to those threads like they own them.
Any modern open-source project has to develop on Discord and Google Docs™, that is well known. What were they thinking‽
He asks ChatGPT to help him develop work that would be difficult for students to complete by simply feeding it into a large language model.

That, while not as bad as what I expected from the summary (i.e. AI detection tools etc.), is still hypocritical.
This is the exact mindless use of AI yielding subpar results anyone can beat with a bit of practice.
LLMs are not good at introspection, if you ask them what they struggle with they will go off of their datasets, focussed on the time before chatGPT, and summarise with the typical AI quality and deep understanding of the applicability of the known limitations to your text.
And all that when the actually correct answer is right there: ask the AI for solutions and learn what breaks it.
But that would take at least a few minutes of time, maybe even hours on the first attempts. Ain't nobody got time for that, why learn useful skills for the future when you can just vibe out your ai-proofing?
It's like getting only 22.3 instead of 23 chromosomes. What a dick move.

Yes, that's an organ, but you're thinking of a portable binder of preprinted tables designed for personal management.
You probably mean daemon-reexec, which also does not restart services (it better not, would be really problematic if it did).
I do mean reload, which has uses, otherwise it wouldn't even exist and services would simply always reload: You may not want to reload yet, but keep a working state of service definitions in systemd while editing things, similar to typing away in a code file in production without saving yet.
I don't see why I would need to "save" all my service definitions to get a usable (non-spammy) mount back, especially when my mount isn't even part of systemd. How does the message even get sent by mount when mount is not aware of systemd?
PS: systemd can replace my text editor over my cold dead body
shutdown, reboot, ... are symlinks on multiple different systemd repos, I have no reason to believe that is not the systemd standard.
systemd is not moving all it does into a single binary, obviously. Others already mentioned that and a bit further up I mentioned some systemd components that can be isolated too.
GNU posix is one extreme, and busybox the other, and the accusation is that the core of systemd sits too close to busybox, and the other projects might too group together things into fewer binaries that used to be multiple independent commands.
As for the core, I think that constitutes: services, logging (journald), cron+anacron (timers), blocking (systemd-inhibit), and mount.
I am probably missing some there. Timers does not interfere with other cron, but it is there whether you like it or not. Those components also come bundled with otherwise optional linux features like cgroup which do complicate using other posix tools with systemd, as you get unexpected results (like nohup not working).
could you hold this "s" for a while? I need the / it was leaning on for some webdev.
According to AcronymFinder, the leading search result for "acronym finder", dwl means "dying with laughter". In combination with a questionmark it would form an exclamation of disbelief.
