back

I use X remoting every day. Being told that I do not need it and it would not work anyway, is what makes me angry. Then I hate that decades of protocol compatibility are broken, which i think is sad and stupid. Finally, I saw people had issues with Wayland (screen sharing etc). Then - after 15 years of development - being somewhat usable also does not convince me that it is so much simpler because of an superior design. Regarding design, I think the monolithic design is inferior. Finally, I never found the technical arguments terrible convincing (such as that an unused old line drawing API in X somehow holds modern clients back - obviously this is BS.).
