  • I would have figured the three Linuses would have been like:

    1. Enthusiastic loud mouthed young Linus arguing with Tannenbaum.

    2. Aggressive Linus with no filter at all slapping maintainers upside the head.

    3. Aggressive Elder Linus with a personal insult filter applied still slapping maintainers upside the head.


  • Two of the things in their list of “Hardware and Driver Issues” look way false from my experience.

    Nvidia compatibility had been getting steadily worse on x.org for the four or five years prior to the switch to wayland. It is getting steadily better on wayland now and I would pick wayland from a stability point of view right now.

    Multi GPU setups are night and day so much better on wayland. I look after a few different wacky multi monitor setups and the support for them is so much better on wayland, particularly 7+ monitors across multiple different physical GPUs, mismatched refresh rates, mismatched sizes, weirdo physical layouts and monitors that are being turned on and off during a session work considerably better.
