You are supposed to go to sleep early. Then you will get your 8 hours of sleep. For some time I had to wake up as early as 4:30. As I had to drive my car to get to work, staying up late was just unthinkable to me.

Linux is great for two kinds of people:

  • Ones who only use web browser, and maybe listen to music/watch movies on their computer (so probably majority of people);

  • Ones who have time and energy to tinker with their computer, because doing anything that's beyond the before-mentioned tasks will eventually make user do CLI stuff, to fix shit.

I mean, there are only ~~two~~ three realistic options (four if you are that one BSD user):

  • Either you use Windows and let Microsoft spy on you (or rely on unbloating scripts which might eventually break your OS and not even block all Microsoft spyware in the first place);

  • You buy overpriced Mac computer, that might also spy on you, who knows;

  • You use Linux.

It doesn't matter what the license say, because GitHub TOS (that everybody agree on when registering their account) explicitly allows forking any project hosted on GitHub, regardless of the project's license.

It doesn't matter what he does, because any project on GitHub can be forked, and it's in their TOS.

By creating a project there, he agreed to that TOS, so he can't disallow forks, simple as that.

Since it's an open source project, it's pretty easy to make a fork and readd Linux support.

People who make getting laid or not their whole personality are people that I would want nothing to do with.

BSD just has 4 (or more?) main distributions (or operating systems, whatever). It is nothing like Linux.

Also I think BSD systems are much more integrated on how they work, because on any Linux distro there are hundreds of different packages that were built by hundreds of different people, and on *BSD all pieces fit together nicely, unless you install 3rd party packages that are entirely optional. (Although you won't get any desktop environment if you do that, aside from default one on OpenBSD, which is modified X server+Fvwm AFAIK).

I think X11 is ideal at the state it is currently. Only getting real fixes, that don't break anything. If you are a kind of user who needs X11, you probably don't need any features Wayland offers anyway.

I'd buy a pen, and try to resell it for twice the price.

Then I'd buy a pair of sunglasses...

Linux is second nature to us geeks, so it's easy to forget that the average person probably knows just Ubuntu or Fedora.

And Debian GNU/Linux, of course.
