Why does GNOME have a bad reputation?

@mattiasb May I ask why you are replying to me if you are not asking for a response? Can you just block me and move on?

@soller @BrodieOnLinux @aks @tripplehelix I am working on a solution that should work for most compositors: https://gitlab.freedesktop.org/wayland/wayland-protocols/-/merge_requests/264
(not so well for autotilers, but that is to be expected)This should enable DAWs, some CAD apps and many scientific apps to work on Linux, as well as the W3C WM spec and compat layers like Wine.

@soller so you think itβs a good idea to, once again(!), send a load of people in the general direction of a GNOME developer? That will surely help with the tone of their reactions!

@jvnknvlgl Why is just pointing out the toxic behavior of a GNOME developer such a problem for you? Do you agree with their response?

@soller first of all, I feel that the βtoxic behaviorβ accusation is quite overblown. This discussion has been going on for years now. Iβm not saying that I agree with the response, Iβm just saying that I understand where itβs coming from. But I also think that you, a person with a reasonable amount of followers, should know better than to publicly point people to someone you donβt agree with. Having a following comes with a responsibility, whether you like it or not.

@jvnknvlgl If you do not want to be called out, please do not post extremely toxic nonsense on a public platform.

@soller I hope you can understand that the same goes for whatever youβre trying to accomplish here.

@jvnknvlgl I would like a few select GNOME developers to stop treating anyone who kindly disagrees with them as bad faith actors with an evil agenda. Yes, there are the haters, but simply asking if SSDs could be supported should not be met with a response involving time machines.

@soller on the other hand, I would like you to stop sending your multiple thousand followers to someone that has already blocked you for your past behavior. But I suppose weβre not going to agree on any of this, so I wish you all the best.

@jvnknvlgl It is simple and easy to delete the post if it is such a problem!

@jvnknvlgl You are defending a toxic person and shaming me for having too many followers?

@soller I am shaming you for behaving irresponsibly with the amount of followers you have, thatβs something else entirely.

@jvnknvlgl Why are you not shaming the person who made a toxic post?

@soller @aks The biggest issue faced by the protocol is that Wayland was designed to be fully declarative, so clients tell it what they intend to do and the compositor does it for them, instead of clients telling the compositor explicitly what they want. Zones bring quite a chunk of imperative behavior with their placement hints, and some Wayland people and compositor devs dislike that...
(But it's IMHO necessary, even though less "pure") -
