How about an example of Wayland forcing me to use GNOME like this rant alleges? I hate GNOME but have been using KDE with Wayland for like two years now.

Hey, all I want is for Linux hardware vendors to stop selling nvidia’s trash!
Is there some law that every modern musician has to cover Wham’s song? Because it sure seems that way.
Because you’re on kbin. I don’t use kbin because of the lack of an API and because of weird bugs like those.
Great. I’m not using a Dell. I have a laptop from a company that supposedly supports Linux first. A company I will not be buying anything from in the future either.
The awful screen is one big reason I don’t use my System76 laptop more often. It’s the worst laptop screen I’ve ever seen, has terrible light bleed, and has a pink tint. And this is the warranty replacement they tried to charge me for. The first one had the same awful screen, but kept freezing on me randomly.
And the damn thing STILL has hardware features that only work on Windows 10, five years later (like multi-finger trackpad gestures). I’ll take System76 seriously when they start putting good screens in their laptops and get rid of nvidia.
And it’s definitely not helping that the biggest Mastodon instance for artists is pretending to be progressive while being hostile to the LGBT community. Mastodon has a chance to snatch up artists who are pissed off about Twitter, and of course they’re going to check out mastodon.art not knowing about their bullshit.
I’m not sure what the solution to that should be, however. Take down mastodon.art? I’ve been telling people to avoid that instance, but non-techie people don’t understand that the Mastodon developers don’t own it.
Sure, because everybody who owns a computer, tablet, or smartphone is a web dev. Obviously.

Yet another Linux-first OEM that sells nvidia’s garbage. No thanks.
Well, I guess they managed to achieve their goal of copying Elon.
This is clearly not a taco rule
I have a System76 Kudu from 2018. I won’t buy anything from them again, honestly. It was overpriced for what it was, and the screen is awful. And it still has features that only work on Windows 10. Not at all what I expected from a company that claims to be Linux-first.
That would be nice if the instance wasn’t always overloaded. Ended up blocking the Piped link bot because of it.
Yes. It’s the reason I haven’t touched kbin in months. I have no reason to use kbin when Lemmy can see these posts and has an API.
Using the latest Plasma Wayland on Arch, btw. They don’t work on any other distro I’ve tried either. My System76 supports gestures on Windows 10.
I’m not willing to switch to GNOME. Having to install a bunch of extensions to get a halfway usable experience that the GNOME devs can and will break on a whim isn’t my cup of tea.
I’m using the latest Plasma on Wayland on Arch and NONE of those gestures work!!
I am NOT using x11!!
This is a rambling of how Wayland supposedly forces everybody to use GNOME, which is BS.
The rant even includes an admission that the author didn’t even know what Wayland was when it was written.
